For a charity auction, I introduced two families to rocketry at NASA Ames, and they had two successful launches of a rocket with on-board video cam.

Here is a frame grab of the big Zeppelin Hangar, and more frame grabs and links to the videos in the comments below.

I’ve been wanting to do this for a while, but my larger video rocket did not do so well on Saturday. It was a repair of a supersonic shred, and well, it needs a bit more fiberglassing now.
