Elon Musk's SpaceX on Monday was set to launch a crew of four private astronauts led by a crypto entrepreneur on a mission to orbit Earth from pole to pole, a novel trajectory in which no humans have traveled before.

Fram2 will send four people from four different nations to low Earth orbit for three to five days.
