Title: Rocketry: The right stuff lives.
Post by: Debs. on 21 July 2009, 12:18:20

Well worth a watch; a (1/10 scale*) Saturn 5 amateur rocket launch.....
*I suppose that`d make it a Saturn .5 ;D

Brilliant!.....even the descent and landing goes well.

That was most excellent  :y
Can't quite understand how they obtained permission to launch something like that so close to the road tho.
I can just imagine the insurance claim, "I was driving home, when the Saturn 5 rocket pulled out of a side road without looking"
 :D

The Accident hapened as I was waving to the man I hit last week

The accident occurred as I thought my window was down but realised it wasnt as I put my head through it
