Space is a Global Challenge
In 1961 the first human traveled to space. 10 billion humans have been born since; yet only 600 have followed that accomplishment - roughly 1 in 15 million.
Interest in space has never been higher. Yet many aspiring explorers may not have the skills, the resources to acquire them, or view the path to participation as just too difficult.
Outlyr exists to change this.
The challenge of space is a stupendous one, it will require the best of our science, our technology, and our imagination [...] and if we fail to meet it, the story of humanity will have come to a close.
- Carl Sagan, "Pale Blue Dot: A Vision of the Human Future in Space." (1994).
