E-Tickets Now Available for Countdown to the X PRIZE CUP

New Mexico's Personal Spaceflight EXPO Kicks Off October 9th

The X PRIZE Foundation is pleased to announce that E-Tickets for the Countdown to the X Prize Cup are now available for purchase from the official website www.xpcup.com.

The event will take place Sunday October 9th from 1100 to 1700 at the Las Cruces International Airport in southern New Mexico.

While only one emerging commercial space company was able to win the $10 million Ansari X Prize, the Foundation firmly believes there are several companies that will soon create reusable launch vehicles of their own for use in the private sector.

It is vital for any nascent industry to have an incubator and venue that will support and showcase their vehicles to the world, especially visionary investors and sponsors, said X-Prize officials in a statement to Aero-News.

The Expo will be the world's first space show where the entire family can come watch the next generation of space vehicles actually fly. They'll see the vehicles up close, learn about the technology, build their own model rockets, operate robots, and even talk to astronauts.
