Godspeed SA – Introducing the Genespeed Kit

In today’s Godspeed SA Round 2 news I would like to introduce a kit that I have been working on for a while.

The single most incredible achievement in human history is, in my opinion, the Moon Landing. Such feat was only feasible due to centuries of work, dedication and sacrifice of countless generations of scientists, workers and dreamers.

Every time I observe the Moon, it always amazes me. To think that we managed to travel to that place and walk on its surface. It is so incredibly far to us humans and to think about the distance – 384.400 km to be precise. We fought every single step into the way of getting there.

The sheer physics and math behind this accomplishment, preparation, improvisation, maybe a lit bit of a luck… Everything we ever did as a civilization resulted into what we did on July 20th, 1969 – we, as a civilization, traveled to the Moon and came back home.

Genespeed is a tribute to one of the most inspiring moments of this journey.

Following the accident of Apollo I where Astronauts Gus Grissom, Edward White and Roger Chaffee lost their lives in a fire, Flight Director Eugene Kranz gathered the team into a room and gave a beautiful speech that arguably changed the course of history.

The Genespeed kit is a streamlined and robust kit which covers all of the popular keyboards with a slick and elegant colorway.

Dedicated to Gene Kranz and all of those who gave their lives so we could land on the Moon.
