Can a 12-year-old boy go to space?

As of now, there are no space missions that allow 12-year-old children to go to space. Most space agencies have age restrictions for astronauts due to the physical and mental demands of space travel. Additionally, children are still developing physically and emotionally, and the risks associated with space travel may be too high for someone so young. However, with advancements in technology and space tourism, it is possible that in the future, there may be opportunities for younger individuals to go to space.

No, a 12-year-old boy cannot go to space. The minimum age for astronauts to travel to space for the International Space Station is 18.
