Hey, hey! Bill Nye here.
I'd like you to join me for our next voyage into space.
Let's have lunch at a launch.
No kidding. I want you to fly to Cape Canaveral
and join me for a rocket launch.
A big one.
Now when I stand here on the shore of the ocean,
I cannot help but imagine sailing to distant destinations
all over the world.
Well at The Planetary Society,
we imagine sailing the cosmic ocean
to distant destinations in our solar system and beyond.
Thanks to the support of our members,
The Planetary Society designed, built
and successfully flew
our own LightSail 1 solar sail spacecraft.
We will soon fly our next mission, LightSail 2,
which will be pushed deeper into space
by the momentum of photons,
the pure energy of starlight.
So join me at Cape Canaveral in Florida,
as our fantastic, new LightSail 2 is slung into orbit
by the SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket.
With three times the thrust of other SpaceX rockets,
it will be a spectacular launch.
So check out omaze.com/bill,
and enter for your chance
to enjoy a lunch and a launch with me.
You'll be part of our mission
to advance space science and exploration.
You'll help people all over the world know a little bit more
about the Cosmos and our place within it.
See you at the Cape!
