There are planets we have only dreamed of, worlds we've barely glimpsed.

A whole universe that billions will never get to explore.

But in a small desert town in California,

a new mission has begun.

And it's called New Space.

I'm definitely going to fly to space.

It's going to be a lot of fun.

And that condition confirmed.

There's a trailblazing generation of entrepreneurs for whom the sky is no longer the limit.

There's a huge expanse out there and there are only a few people that are going after it.

Governments don't have the money today,

but the private sector does.

They aim to explore and exploit the solar system.

We are absolutely part of this new space race.

And find their fortunes in the stars.

Dawn in the Mojave Desert.

Stu Witt is on his daily commute.

The desert landscape makes you think differently.

It's not hard to imagine what Mars might look like.

You can feel pretty insignificant in a place like this.

13 years ago, Stu took over a small civilian airfield at Mojave.

Tower, Mojave 1.

What are your ceilings right now?

Under his leadership, it's become known as the Silicon Valley of space exploration.

I believe it is in our DNA to explore.

And I would make the case that we're travelling on spaceship Earth right now.

and maybe it's time to go outside the hatch and see what's outside.

In 2004, Mojave became the USA's first commercial spaceport.

If you look all the way to the left, you see stradolaunch.

Then you have X-Core Aerospace,

you have scale composites, and then behind that you have a cluster of Virgin Galactic,

Mastin Space and Interorbital and all of these various space companies that come to Mojave to test their wares.

Many of these pioneering firms have set up shop in primitive hangars dating from the Cold War.

They're banking on being among the first to profit from the dawning of a whole new era.

In 2010, the commercial space industry consisted of just 100 companies worldwide.

There are now over 800.

And by 2030, the industry is expected to turn over 600 billion US dollars a year.

For those who want to strike it big in this modern day gold rush,

Mojave is the place to be.

The biggest asset out here is this fabulous reservation of airspace that's right above us

that is completely dedicated for research, flight testing.

So if you will, we have an elevator to space.

One of the front runners in this new space race is Virgin Galactic.

They aim to be the world's first private company taking wealthy passengers to the edge of space the edge of space.

Enrico Palermo is in charge of building the craft that will get them there.

This is where we're assembling the second spaceship to.

Here you go, it's the center of the world right now.

I pinch myself every day.

I've had a long-term passion for space,

you'll probably qualify as a space geek I guess.

In fact, my wife and I left Australia in pursuit of a career in the space industry.

Virgin are rebuilding Spaceship Two after a test flight in 2014 ended in tragedy,

destroying the craft and claiming the life of one of its pilots.

It's a stark reminder of the dangers facing the pioneers of commercial space travel.

Which part's not fitting?

We're developing a spaceship that can fly you and me into space.

And that, I think, is going to be transforming for us here on Earth.

Grounded until their new spacecraft is ready,

Virgin Galactic seem a long way from their ultimate goal.

But that hasn't stopped them capitalising on a lucrative new market.

700 people have already booked their place on Spaceship Two,

handing over a total of $80 million.

50 meters from Virgin Galactic's giant hangar,

the fresh-faced employees of Mastin Space Systems run a very different operation.

I'm getting intermittent telemetry here.

I need to reboot.

They weren't even born when man last went to the moon,

but that doesn't mean they can't aim for it.

They follow down all the service plumbing and meet here and they go down.

23-year-old engineer Ben has been working on Mastin's rockets since leaving college two years ago.

This is the propulsion system for a potential lunar lander.

We're doing a lot of things that no one else is doing,

you know, like the pioneers.

So I guess, yeah, we're venturing on the frontiers of space.

I had to take something apart to fix something that I didn't do right the first time.

Ellen started as an intern just last year.

It's exciting to be a part of, for sure.

I'm 23.

I'm very young.

This is my first job.

I'm pretty sure if I worked at a large company,

they would not say, hey, go build this rocket.

If there was something that was on the moon that I knew that I worked on,

that I had a hand in building, that would be incredible.

That would be awesome.

They may be young, but Ellen and Ben are helping develop cutting edge technology.

Their rockets not only go up,

but also use artificial intelligence to stop,

maneuver, and find exactly the right spot to land.

So they can be used again and again.

Any place there's not a runway,

or there's not enough air for wings to work,

this is the sort of technology that you're gonna need to have.

Overseeing this enthusiastic workforce is Chief Executive Sean Mahoney.

Today, he's come to watch the test launch of their latest rocket.

When we're flying, I'm not entirely sure that I breathe.

We need this test to go well so

that we know the vehicle's ready for the customer who's showing up in a couple weeks.

Mastin doesn't rely on external investment.

100

The company is run as a profit-making business.

101

Their customers include NASA, and they have a $3 million contract with the US Department of Defense.

102

We are absolutely part of this new space race.

103

This isn't just get there,

104

it's find a way to get there so that you can stay there,

105

so that you can keep going there.

106

This isn't a one-shot business anymore looking to build a sustainable business that will carry on over time.

107

With the test launch one hour away,

108

Ellen and the team carry out their final checks.

109

Roger that, on our way.

110

Just down the road, another company's betting on the confidence of youth to help send people to space.

111

In charge of the propulsion system for their radical new rocket is 26-year-old engineer Jeremy Voigt.

112

This rocket engine is kind of my baby.

113

I'm definitely going to fly with it.

114

Everybody in the company gets to fly to space

115

and it's pretty cool that I get to build the engines that are going to take me there.

116

X-Core has been developing their engine for the last seven years years.

117

There are no experts in the field,

118

there aren't textbooks that say

119

when I do it this way this is how you run all of these lines

120

and make sure that everything is this size and you start it in this way.

121

None of that exists so we have to make all that up.

122

If the test is successful Jeremy will be one step closer to his ultimate dream,

123

reaching the cosmos.

124

Red team, spill bucket position under fuel air lead line.

125

It's an adrenaline rush to flip the switch and actually start the system running.

126

Control, fuel open, push.

127

All right, extend bypass, fuel open, push.

128

All right, dual cold flow, 10, 9, chill.

129

Lux Prime.

130

6, 5, 4, 3, 2, arm.

131

It would seem you have no drive, yes.

132

All switches are off and safe.

133

I want to vent tanks,

134

I don't want to look at data.

135

You always have to be prepared to fail.

136

I'm honestly really not disappointed.

137

Nothing got damaged.

138

All of my friends are still here.

139

That's all great, and we're going to continue to do more stuff.

140

Day's not over yet.

141

Base shields down for tower lower.

142

If you walk in these hangars, they're kits.

143

They're not old guys like me.

144

They're kits, and you see the sparkle in their eye.

145

Whether they succeed or fail,

146

they have the will to try.

147

You know, we're explorers out here.

148

We're innovators.

149

We endorse the taking of risk.

150

And in doing so, sometimes it comes with failure.

151

Igniter.

152

OK, moving to the engine start page.

153

Pilot, check your control box.

154

I don't care how many times you go through this sequence,

155

my heart rate goes up a little bit right now.

156

With every test launch, the entrepreneurs at Mojave shoulder the risk of failure.

157

Six, five, four.

158

But their eyes are on the potential rewards.

159

There it is.

160

That's what we want to see.

161

If they can perfect technology like these precision landing rockets,

162

a multitude of new business opportunities beckon,

163

from asteroid mining to moon colonization and beyond.

164

Just another day in Mojave, yeah.

165

Thank you, sir.

166

This is the technology being demonstrated right here that is how humans will first set foot on Mars.

167

It may be ours, it may not be ours,

168

but when humans go to Mars,

169

vertical landing is how it's going to be done.

170

And our hope is that over the next generation,

171

thousands will have the opportunity to go to space.

172

Because when you talk to the people who have been,

173

they're changed, profoundly changed from that experience.

174

They realize just how fragile Earth is.

175

I think it's time to go out there again,

176

to try things that haven't been done before.

177

Why not?

178

Think what we learn.

179

you
