'''Berthold Seliger''' (born [[1928]] in Dauba in Sudeten county) is a [[Germany|German]] rocket technical designer. Berthold Seliger won a scholarship at the school of engineering of [[Mittweida]] in Saxony in [[1942]] and, after finishing his studies, became an assistant of the famous theoretician professor [[Dr. Eugen Sänger]]. He moved in [[1956]] to Orsoy at the lower [[Rhine]], where he opened a moped workshop. In [[1960]] Berthold Seliger became a member of the [[Hermann-Oberth-Gesellschaft|German Rocket Society]] and founded in [[1961]] a society for rocket construction, the "Berthold Seliger Forschungs- und Entwicklungsgesellschaft mbH".

In [[1962]]/[[1963|63]] this society launched various rockets in the area of [[Cuxhaven]], among this was a three-stage rocket with a maximum altitude of more than 100 kilometers (first flight: May 2nd, 1963). This rocket was the only rocket developed in postwar Germany, which reached [[space]]. In December 1963 Berthold Seliger gave a demonstration of militarily usable rockets to military representatives from non-[[NATO]] states in the area of Cuxhaven, which might have taken its part in the termination of the rocket experiments in the area of Cuxhaven in [[1964]].
