by David Ashford, Founder and Director of Bristol Spaceplanes Limited
This lecture describes a launch vehicle development roadmap that uses only proven technology and that could lead to a thousand-fold reduction in the cost of sending people to orbit within about 15 years. This would clearly revolutionise spaceflight and create a new space age. The roadmap involves a combination of full reusability, aeroplane-like vehicle design, and high traffic levels, especially from space tourism, to provide economies of scale. Find out more in the talk.
