A Dane for NASA work, the details of plans for a diy spaceship public. It is intended that the spacecraft, Tycho Deep Space, manned 100 kilometers above the earth’s surface.
Tycho Deep Space is being developed by Copenhagen Suborbitals, a non-profit organization, which in 2008 set up by Kristian von Bengtson and inventor Peter Madsen. The purpose of the organization is to travel to ‘democratise’. Von Bengston conducted earlier missions for NASA and has a master in Space Studies at the French International Space University.

The model is similar to the Apollo that NASA used to be the man on the moon.
The purpose of Bengtson and his colleagues is a version of Tycho Deep Space, including crew member to actually launch and up to 100 km above sea level. He gives all the detailed drawings of the model under other on Wired free, including a manual of how the spacecraft should be made, in the hope that do-it-zelfers without the required design knowledge project following the example, write Shareable.
