Geldof 'really excited' to become first Irishman in space
Sir Bob Geldof said that he is "really excited" to become the first Irishman to go into space.
The Boomtown Rats frontman is due to become one of the first astronauts with the commercial operator "Space XC" next year.
Apparently he has been desperate to experience space, and narrowly missed the chance to travel with Russian cosmonauts.
