À propos de l?auteur

Sir Peter Beck is the founder and CEO of Rocket Lab, a company that designs, builds, and launches advanced rockets and satellites. A self-taught engineer who grew up in a middle-class family and never went to university, Beck founded Rocket Lab in 2006 at the age of 29. His vision was to develop rockets specifically dedicated to launching small satellites, making it faster, easier, and more cost-effective to reach space, and thus enabling greater innovation, and exploration. Today, Rocket Lab is a global leader in aerospace, manufacturing one of the world's most-launched rockets and employing over 2,000 highly skilled people. Peter Griffin is an award-winning journalist, podcaster and Fulbright-Harkness scholar who started out covering the dotcom crash in London, UK and has written about every new wave of technology since--rockets and satellites included. He lives in Wellington, New Zealand, where he studied creative writing at Victoria University's International Institute of Modern Letters.
