1st Private Spaceship into Space!
1:17 Scale. 12 in. Parachute Recovery!
The Estes SpaceShipOne is a 1:30 scale version
of the famous Scaled Composites Ansari X PRIZE
competition spaceship. Designed by Burt Rutan,
this is the first privately funded spaceship
to reach outer space. The Estes rocket duplicates
the unique design and blasts to 400 feet into
the air using an Estes B or C engine and is

parachute.

using glue, modeling tools and paint. After
it's constructed and painted, simply apply
the authentic decals and you have an accurate

spacecraft. Now it's your turn to Race Into
Space and claim the $10 Million X PRIZE! Assembly

supplies - not included.
