This is a video I took of the first rocket into space built by civilians. This was taken on May 17, 2004 at the Black Rock Desert. Sponsored by GoFast.

  • If I remember correctly it had a burn time of 9 seconds, and got to 77 miles up. They needed 65 miles up to "crack" the space barrier, and obviosly shattered it.. I have a few other video's on it that are not the launch, but the celebration, etc.. Took em like 2 days to find the rocket nose also.. I think it was something like about 22 miles down range.
