Maybe I've missed the thread here, but I'm surprised that no one has commented on the recent article in Wired Magazine:
https://www.wired.com/science/space/magazine/16-11/ff_rocketheads
This one article is what got me so interested in rocketry in the first place, and since I've read the article, I've fired up a Big Daddy, read Stine's book cover to cover, picked up a magazine for my LEUP, and am devouring everything in these forums.
Anyway, that article mentions only one amateur rocket actually making it into space:
My question to the mavens in this forum is who / what / when / where / and HOW???
My other question - did anyone here actually see Nowaczyk's launch at Black Rock? I wanted to see a video / images of the launch.

Thus far, only one amateur has made it beyond the threshold of space, defined as 62 miles, or roughly 330,000 feet.
