The purpose of the case study is to analyze what went wrong in a failed space tourism company. The presented case showcases XCOR Aerospace as a benchmark where their experiences, methodologies, members and their background, financial results, and investors are discussed and evaluated. Furthermore, a reflection about XCOR’s decisions and their achievements is performed, to better understand and explain the crucial factors that the company was missing, and which future companies can improve on. Therefore, questioning if there was anything that could have reversed XCOR’s fate, or the company was destined to fail.
