150万一张的国内首批太空船票，在直播间被抢空（讲解版）｜E1101

▍原文

Two tickets for passage on what could be the first Chinese rocket ship to take tourists to space were sold, according to a livestream.

The country's commercial space firms aim to join a small but expanding global space tourism industry.

The tickets—priced at 1 million yuan for a roughly 12-minute trip to the edge of space—sold out "immediately." Some 3 million people tuned in to the broadcast.
