From the Garage to Mars

- Memoir of a Space Entrepeneur

Bag om From the Garage to Mars

On January 4th, 2004, the Mars rover Spirit landed on Mars. The first pictures sent back included the logo of a small company in Boulder, Colorado--Starsys Research--which had built 27 motors powering the rover and its instruments. Starsys was founded by Scott Tibbitts, an ex-ski bum/nuclear engineer, from an invention made of hardware-store parts and wax. Starsys ultimately flew 3,500 devices on 350 spacecraft, its success a direct result of a corporate culture that became legend in the space business for its emphasis on Fun and Family. Scott brings the reader along for the ride of creating a space company from scratch, providing a visceral experience of the extraordinary highs and soul-wrenching lows. It is a must-read for space enthusiasts, Shark Tank junkies, and entrepreneur-CEOs who will benefit from the hacks and tools Scott shares for creating legendary corporate cultures.

On January 4th, 2004, the Mars rover Spirit landed on Mars. The first pictures sent back included
the logo of a small company in Boulder, Colorado--Starsys Research--which had built 27 motors
powering the rover and its instruments. Starsys was founded by Scott Tibbitts, an ex-ski
bum/nuclear engineer, from an invention made of hardware-store parts and wax.

Starsys ultimately flew 3,500 devices on 350 spacecraft, its success a direct result of a corporate
culture that became legend in the space business for its emphasis on Fun and Family.

Scott brings the reader along for the ride of creating a space company from scratch, providing a visceral
experience of the extraordinary highs and soul-wrenching lows.

It is a must-read for space enthusiasts, Shark Tank junkies, and entrepreneur-CEOs who will
benefit from the hacks and tools Scott shares for creating legendary corporate cultures.
