Step 9: Launch

Here is a video of the launch. I launched this rocket twice and it was my first (and certainly not last) nighttime launch.



Note: During the first test, my camera's drop detection feature triggered while I was running and shut the camera off. The footage jumped to where we recovered the rocket.

That would be a model rocket motor. They can be found at hobby stores, or sometimes in the toy section of Walmart. Best of luck!
