At only 32, Chinese entrepreneur Justin Sun was appointedas the new Ambassador and Permanent Representative of Grenada to the World Trade Organisation (WTO) late last year.

But thatwas just the beginning for this outstanding young man who has a pretty unique interest space travel.

On July 11, Richard Branson, founder of Virgin Galactic, took the company's Unity spacecraft to complete the first low-Earth orbit space trip. This was followed by the successful implementation of the Blue Origin spacecraft.

Sun, however, is not investing in commercial aerospace but is officially joining the ranks of entrepreneurs participating in the industry.

At the end of this year, he and five crew members will take the New Shepardspacecraftand become the first batch of Chinese explorers in commercial space travel.

Spacetravel, currently in itsearly stages, is too expensive for the regular person. Hence, Sun's goal is to reduce the costs throughcommercialisation.

Byinjectingcapitaland selling tickets, one can fund the venture as well as instil confidence in the industry.

Sun's actions willspark online interest and inspire more people to take part in space exploration, especially other young entrepreneurs.
