🚀 Thinking about coming to our Space Social on your own? You're definitely not the only one. We looked back at the bookings for our last two Space Socials with Chris Sembroski and Daniel Tani. More than one in every three bookings was for just one person. And it's not just General Admission. More than four in ten VIP bookings were made by people coming on their own. You don't have to know anyone before you arrive. You already have something in common with everyone else in the room: You love space. 🚀 People come to our Space Socials from all sorts of backgrounds; families, engineers, teachers, students, collectors, enthusiasts and people who simply want to experience something they've never experienced before. Some arrive with friends. Some arrive with family. Plenty arrive by themselves. Then they find themselves surrounded by people who are just as excited to be there. That's the community we're building with The Armchair Astronaut. So if you've been thinking about joining us for Doug Hurley on Saturday 7th November, but wondering whether you'd feel out of place coming alone... You won't. 🚀 Who's coming on their own?
