BRITISH former astronaut Tim Peake (pictured) is set to join Cunard Line’s Queen Elizabeth in Alaska next year.
Peake will be a special guest as part of Cunard’s Insights Programme on a 10-night Alaska voyage, departing Seattle on 20 Jul.
Guests will be invited to Queen Elizabeth’s Royal Court Theatre to hear Peake share remarkable stories from his more than six months aboard the International Space Station from Dec 2015 to Jun 2016.
The cruise will includes calls at Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway, Wrangell, and Victoria.
“Alaska and space might seem worlds apart — but both are places of stunning natural beauty, perspective, and discovery,” Peake observed.
“I’m incredibly excited to share with Cunard guests what it’s really like to live and work in space – and to meet curious minds from around the world in one of the most breathtaking destinations on Earth,” he added.
