As we prepare for a new season of The Rocketry Show, we have some technical work to do...

This MIGHT cause a glitch in our feed that you might notice when we flip the switch, so to speak.  Hopefully not!

CG explains in this short drop...

We remember one of the key founding members of Estes Rockets.  Gleda Estes passed away earlier this year while we were out of production.  We chose to dedicate an episode to her memory by listening to a re-enacting of the early years of Estes Rockets that she and husband Vern performed at NSL 2018.

Welcome to our first "Rocket Friends episode of the new show format. This type of show was formerly called "Workshop Talk".

In this episode we are joined with Bill and Rachel Daigle and they catch us up on their hobby adventures.  Also in this episode:

• CG's flight computer project ticks along, and he talks about how that is shaping up.
• Gheem is grilled by all of us on what it's like to have his High School rocket team accepted into the NASA Student Launch competition this year.

Enjoy!
