Back in August 2011, Armin van Buuren's management announced that Armin would be taking a trip to space in 2014 courtesy of SpaceXC. SXC wrote “Armin van Buuren, four time best DJ of the world and one of the first astronauts to go into space with the spacecraft, will reveal the Lynx.” Back in 2011, Armin said that
“The SP-1 is an incredible impressive thing. Just thinking about floating around in one of those, hovering about 100 km above the Earth, gives me goose bumps. Even if I have to wait another three years. I think it is great that SXC and the Summer Fair chose to introduce the spacecraft to the world for the first time, in the Netherlands. I am feeling extremely proud I am the one to reveal it to the world.”
Yesterday Armin van Buuren reminded us via Facebook about this adventure as he will be one of the 100 ‘Founder Astronauts' invited for a flight into space by SXC.
