Wild Fire private spacecraft, art
Wild Fire Mk VI spacecraft separating above the Earth, computer artwork. This spacecraft, part of the Golden PalaceSpace Program Powered by the da Vinci Project, is a competitor for the Ansari X-Prize. This is a $10m award for the first private company to launch a reusable spacecraft to an altitude of over 100 kilometres twice within two weeks. The Wild Fire Mk VI rocket is taken to an altitude of around 24 kilometres by the worlds largest reusable helium balloon. Its rocket engine will then fire, taking it to over 100 kilometres. The craft then separates, with both the spherical cockpit and the rocket section returning to Earth by parachute

EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print showcases the Wild Fire Mk VI spacecraft, a remarkable creation in the realm of private space exploration. This computer artwork depicts the awe-inspiring moment when the spacecraft separates above our beautiful planet Earth. Developed as part of the Golden Palace Space Program Powered by the da Vinci Project, this innovative craft is a strong contender for the prestigious Ansari X-Prize. Valued at $10 million, the Ansari X-Prize seeks to reward the first private company capable of launching a reusable spacecraft to an altitude exceeding 100 kilometers twice within two weeks. The Wild Fire Mk VI rocket achieves this feat by initially ascending to approximately 24 kilometers using an enormous and reusable helium balloon – currently holding claim as world's largest. Once reaching its desired altitude, this cutting-edge vehicle ignites its powerful rocket engine propelling it beyond 100 kilometers into suborbital space. Upon completion of its mission, both sections of this extraordinary craft gracefully return to Earth aided by parachutes – ensuring their safe descent back home. This stunning illustration transports us into a future where mankind ventures further into outer space with privately developed technology. It represents humanity's unyielding curiosity and determination to explore new frontiers while pushing boundaries previously reserved for government agencies alone. The Wild Fire Mk VI embodies not only innovation but also serves as a symbol of human progress in unlocking secrets hidden within our vast universe.
