Trader consensus reflects near-unanimous skepticism toward former President Donald Trump undertaking a spaceflight in 2026, driven by the absence of any official announcements, bookings, or training schedules despite his lighthearted Oval Office remarks on April 29 joking about his physical fitness during a meeting with the Artemis II lunar flyby crew. As the sitting president, Trump's packed schedule, Secret Service security protocols, and age—nearing 80—pose insurmountable barriers to commercial suborbital trips via Virgin Galactic (slated for late-year resumption) or SpaceX, with no tailored astronaut slot identified. Recent executive actions boosting NASA and U.S. space superiority underscore policy support but not personal participation. Odds could shift only via an improbable last-minute reveal, such as a Musk-facilitated flight, before year-end resolution.
