Christmas Get-Together

Celebration at the Society’s HQ on 5 December 2007  6.30  -  8.30 pm

Space tourism on a budget of £1.57
Richard Osborne

The X-prize brought out space tourism contenders from around the world. Away from the glare of publicity, a number of concepts were quietly explored in the UK, some more practical than others. Ranging from a rocket powered hypersonic hydrofoil through to a reworked Black Arrow with a midget crew capsule, this talk provides a humorous overview of some of the more creative concepts.

This informal event provides an excellent opportunity to meet with friends again and talk with Society representatives.

Apply for tickets, price £10, including refreshments, to the Executive Secretary, The British Interplanetary Society, 27/29 South Lambeth Road, London SW8 1SZ, enclosing sae or apply online here.

This is a Members Only event, although each member may obtain a ticket for one guest.
