The 9/11 tenth anniversary official story timeline is brought to you by the National September 11 Memorial and Museum.
An interactive timeline chronicling the September 11, 2001 attacks hour-by-hour is now online with a fast-forward button to skip any video or audio accounts too disturbing for the visitor.
Until the building opens in September 2011, anyone interested in how that historic day unfolded can find out here.
"This timeline is a real attempt to organize what was an incredibly chaotic day into a format that's accessible for people to learn from," said Joe Daniels, the president of the National September 11 Memorial and Museum. {more}
The museum timeline could have used any number of videos available to illustrate the 2nd plane hit. They chose this one where the angle doesn't catch the incoming plane and only a portion of the explosion can be seen.
They did like the background dialog in this 'amateur' video. The videographer luckily turned up the mic volume at the proper time to hear some guy say he saw an American Airlines 767 hit the first tower and before the 2nd plane hits declares "That Building is Going to Collapse."
The National September 11 Memorial at the World Trade Center site will be dedicated on September 11, 2011.
