$28M for a seat on a spaceship ride with billionaire Jeff Bezos

A seat on a spaceship ride with billionaire Jeff Bezos went for $28 million during a live auction on Saturday.

Within 4 minutes of the open of Saturday's live phone auction, bids reached beyond $20 million. The bidding closed 7 minutes after the auction began.
The identity of the winner - presumably an ultra-wealthy space aficionado - was not immediately disclosed.

The launch of Blue Origin's New Shepard booster on July 20th from West Texas would be a landmark moment as U.S. firms strive toward a new era of private commercial space travel.

no, it is illegal to commit crime.

In August 2019, the NASA astronaut Anne McClain has been accused of committing a crime in outer space. McClain would have tried to access the bank accounts of her former spouse without her authorization. Later McClain who was alleged by her estranged wife to have committed the first “space crime” has been cleared and her accuser charged with lying.
