How to Make a Spaceship
9500 Gilman Drive, San Diego, 92093
Cost: Free
The Arthur C. Clarke Center for Human Imagination invites you to a moderated conversation between Peter Diamandis (founder, XPRIZE Foundation), Julian Guthrie (author of How to Make a Spaceship), and Brian Binnie (the pilot of SpaceShipOne).
When Diamandis realized NASA was winding down manned spaceflight, he set out on one of the great entrepreneurial adventure stories of our time — if the government wouldn’t send him to space, he would create a private space flight industry himself. The story of the bullet-shaped SpaceShipOne and the other teams in the pursuit of outer space is a tale of making the impossible possible.
