Copenhagen Suborbitals
When something is possible and not too difficult to achieve, they say: “This is not rocket science” but today’s podcast is literally about rocket science. And, in a way, maybe the most difficult approach to sending people into orbit.
Copenhagen Suborbitals is the world’s first and only amateur spaceflight program. Located in Denmark they have supporters from across the world. From 2011 until today they have designed and flown 6 rockets from their floating launch site in the Baltic Sea. Their goal is simple but audacious: To fly an amateur astronaut to space and return them safely to Earth — without governmental support.
Todays Science Stories' guest is Jørgen Skyt from Copenhagen Suborbitals. He is being interviewed by Jens Degett.
