Bob Geldof’s spokesman, Gary Winesap told ITV news that the Boomtown Rat was grateful for the mass of donations to get him a seat on the rocket and he was also glad that there were no bathing facilities onboard.
Others who have already signed up include DJ Z403-2a and pop star 78564-y.
The rocket’s boosters will propel Geldof to a height of 89 miles above earth’s atmosphere where he will just keep going, and going and going.
