Canadian businessman and philanthropist Mark Pathy on being aboard the International Space Station

Mark Pathy, a Canadian businessman and philanthropist, arrived at the International Space Station last Saturday as part of the first fully commercial flight to the orbiting laboratory. Mr. Pathy, who is chief executive and chairman of the Montreal-based investment company Mavrik, is estimated to have paid about US$55-million to be a part of the 10-day mission, regarded as a milestone in the development of private space flight.
