Dr. Kirby Runyon Leads Educational Outer Space Tourism Experiences
I'm Kirby Runyon. Ever Dream of Visiting SPACE?
I help bring that dream a little closer to reality. With a PhD in planetary geology from Johns Hopkins University, 15 years of research science under my belt, and over 20 zero-gravity flights, I don't just study space—I experience it and I bring others along. I invite YOU to join me as I lead adventurers across landscapes that mimic other worlds and offers VIP tours of NASA’s Kennedy Space Center and more, turning curiosity into immersive discovery.
