Capt. Scott Kelly - spent a record year in space
Following an acclaimed appearance aboard Crystal Serenity over the summer, NASA astronaut Capt. Scott Kelly will sail aboard Crystal Esprit in December.

Kelly will share his inspiring stories and the account of his record-breaking year in space, this time aboard the 62-passenger super yacht.

Kelly’s historic mission included NASA’s groundbreaking twin study, with his brother Capt. Mark Kelly serving on the ground as a control model in an experiment to understand how space affects the human body.

Beginning and ending with an overnight stay at Dubai, the Dec. 13 cruise will visit Khasab and Muscat, Oman; Doha, Qatar; Sir Bani Yas Island and Abu Dhabi, UAE. Fares for the nine-night program start at $8,750.
