#42What is the open source part of this? The sketch books on the website? Or is there some software somewhere as well?
I think that a lot of it hasn't been released yet:
"We intend to share all our techninal information as much as possible, within the laws of EU-export control. "

#44I just missed it. Is there a replay posted someplace? The linked page is just to the live stream.
aside: why don't any of the "live" video companies offer complete rewind/replay? Why can't I go to the page linked in the OP and watch the whole thing, even though it is no longer "live"?

One of the comments says that it's on youtube. There are a few there, but I'm not sure if one is official - none of them really look like it.
That does seem like a feature that would make a lot of sense for live videos to have. Could be that there are patents preventing them, or something like that, because it would make live videos far more valuable.

#46Inspiring, they've actually done something, on a shoestring, basically hobbyists, that most national governments haven't been able to achieve.

I'm not sure there's an official video. The Danish TV station TV 2 filmed the whole thing from their news helicopter, and that is the footage you see on the YouTube link I posted and on http://nyhederne.tv2.dk/article.php/id-40453154:dansk-rumrak... (there's a short commercial before the video that can be closed).

#49Liftoff! First attempt the auto-sequence didn't start properly, but on a retry they've achieved liftoff. The screams from the mission control feed gave me goosebumps.
Any idea how high it went?

#50Found this video of one of the Copenhagen Suborbitals guys giving a talk at TEDxCopenhagen: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ua9oGxNNGd0
I love the notion of "I'd rather work with a guy who says 'I don't know anything about it, but let's figure it out'".
That message is amazing, and I've found that has been a huge differentiator between people who are stellar performers vs. people who are mediocre or poor.
