Moonspike | A full scale, 22 ton, 3 stage Moon rocket
• kickstarter.comAbout this project
We're building a Moon rocket
A full scale Moon rocket, that will fly into the heavens at around 12km/s and then launch a tiny spacecraft on a 400,000km one-way journey to the Moon.
Why?
We want to find out if some ordinary rocket engineers, with purely private backing, can design and build a small, but genuine Moon rocket.
If we can do that together, we can start a new era of open space access, driven by ordinary people joining forces to building extraordinary rockets & spacecraft.
And we've built and launched some big rockets before. Here's one we built earlier.
