I was intrigued by the massive complicted (and very optimistic) flowchart poster on last night's episode of Science Club hosted by Dara O'Briain. It was apparently produced in the 1980s iby Rockwell International and charts all the steps and inventions needed for human expansion into the cosmos.
Apparently by around 2010 we should have and an International lunar base outpost on order to be on track!
I managed to track down a PDF copy of it from this website here in case anyone else is interested. It makes fascinating reading.

It would look great printed out as a poster, but would need to be A1 or A2 size to have any hope of reading it I think.
