A space capsule built in Forks that two aerospace engineers plan to launch on the West End goes on public display from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. today at Vern Burton Community Center, 308 E. Fourth St., Port Angeles.
The exhibit coincides with the 100th anniversary of the Wright brothers’ first flight.
Forks-based Space Transport Corp. president Phil Storm and vice president Eric Meier will be on hand to answer questions about their commercial “suborbital tourism vehicle,” which they hope will one day carry “tourist” astronauts into space.
They are building rockets at their Forks Industrial Park manufacturing plant to affordably carry commercial payloads into space.
