Amateur Space Access: A Brief Timeline

Timeline of some events that I consider to be important on the road to amateur space access. I presented this along with commentary and context at my office on 10 July 2009. The final "event" listed in the presentation is a small project I have been tinkering with on and off for the past few months at home, a very small, very simple guided rocket. (There is plenty of work left to be done, but it's progressing. Hopefully soon I can put up some footage of what I have so far.)

Each event shows up for about 3 seconds, so you may want to have the "pause" button ready.

The program that I used to generate this (and present at the meeting) is called Timeline 3D (http://www.beedocs.com), available for Mac OS X only.
