'Beyond The Blue' Now Available At Sporty's

Book Chronicles The Ansari XPRIZE 10 Years Later

A book that's been called the "ultimate insiders look" at the events that led up to the awarding of the Ansari XPRIZE is now available at Sporty's Pilot Shop.

The book, written by our own CEO and Editor in Chief Jim Campbell, follows the XPRIZE from test flights to the launch, recovery, and re-launch of SpaceShipOne and includes hundreds of photographs, many never before published, along with Campbell's unique insider narrative from places that even XPRIZE founder Peter Diamandis did not go.

Diamandis says his contribution to the book is "the first time that I’m actually getting to tell the story of the founding of XPRIZE and the creation of the Ansari XPRIZE."

You can order the book online from Sporty's for $39.95, and gift wrapping is available.
