Japanese billionaire Yusaku Maezawa has officially announced the eight crew members who will be joining him on his '#dearMoon' expedition, the first ever civilian expedition to the moon. 

On December 9, Yusaku Maezawa revealed the full '#dearMoon' crew and confirmed that the space expedition was well on its way for 2023. The eight crew members who will be joining the billionaire on the expedition are: Japanese-American DJ and musician Steve Aoki, Indian actor Dev Joshi, U.S. Olympic snowboarder Kaitlyn Farrington, Japanese dancer Miyu, creator Yemi A.D., photographic artist Rhiannon Adam, YouTuber Tim Dodd, photographer Karim Iliya, filmmaker Brendan Hall, and Big Bang's T.O.P from South Korea.
