CSXT SpaceShot 2004 - First Amateur Launch to Space
CSXT SpaceShot 2004 - First Amateur Launch to Space: "Stratofox was privileged to be invited as a part of the Civilian Space eXploration Team's efforts for the SpaceShot 2004. After many attempts in previous years by many groups, this was first successful launch of an amateur rocket to space. And it was also the first privately-funded launch to space in history. We in Stratofox organized the tracking and recovery of the rocket.
The launch site was at the Black Rock Desert in northern Nevada. Stratofox organized and led the search teams which found the rocket about 25 miles from the launch site in rugged mountainous terrain. "
