Last Saturday, I hosted a party dedicated to 50 years of human space flight, and gave this presentation to an audience of approximately 30 people. It received surprisingly positive response, and so I’m sharing it here by popular demand.
Although its primary goal was entertainment (it even has built-in breaks for drinks), it also offers coverage for many interesting facts of spaceflight from 1942 to 2011 and may have educational value.
Be sure to click the “View full-size presentation” in the low right corner. Enjoy!
