Whitehorn lecture at MOD Boscome Down

Rocketeer — Thu, 14/01/2010 - 9:01pm

The Boscombe Down branch of the Royal Aeronautical Society has organised a lecture by Will Whitehorn, the president of Virgin Galactic, on the 9th Feb and has kindly thrown the
event open to a wider audience.

Due to security restrictions in force at MOD Boscombe Down (where lectures are hosted) any non-branch members wishing to attend will need to register their interest through Bryan Somerset – preferably via e-mail: BCSOMERSET@qinetiq.com.

Guests are welcome to all of Boscombe Down's lectures on this basis - they do suggest that a contribution is made towards refreshment (they operate an honesty box system). Similarly, if interested, guests can join the branch on the night.

More details on the RAeS website.
