Civilian Space eXploration Team information


The GoFast space launch, May 17, 2004.

The Civilian Space eXploration Team, also known as the CSXT, is a team of around 30 civilians interested in private spaceflight. The team was created by Ky Michaelson. Having conducted multiple rocket launches in an attempt to establish altitude records, CSXT became the first entity to officially launch an amateur rocket into space on May 17, 2004, with the successful launch of its GoFast rocket to an altitude of 116 km (72 miles) above the surface, which was verified by FAA analysis of the team's flight data.[1]

Prior privately funded space launches were achieved by the Orbital Sciences Pegasus, and many other amateur teams havemade unverified claims of rocket flights exceeding the boundary of space.[1]
