The Rocketry Show

Posted on August 25, 2018 by CG

We’re joined by Steve Skinner of Mach 1 Rocketry and Ronald Dunn of Birmingham Rocket Boys to talk about Mach 1 and their new line of fiberglass rockets, as well as the Bama Blastoff event happening at the Dee River Ranch in west of Aliceville, Alabama.

The event boasts a 16,800 foot standing waiver and 12,000 acres of mostly open recovery area.

Want to learn more about this and BT tube sized fiberglass rockets? You’ve come to the right episode!

Welcome to part two of our NSL 2018 episode!

Gheem and his composite B motor from Quest.

Gheem will take you on a journey through NSL 2018 using the magic of "soundscaping". We worked hard to try to paint the images and experiences of NSL 2018 through the magic of sound. Theatre of the mind, if you will!

Also, Plenty more from Vern and Gleda Estes as well.

Joe Barnard and his Scout rocket along with Thrusty McThrustface.

 

There are a few historical surprises that Gheem stumbles into during his journey.

We've really enjoyed producing this special episode, and we hope you enjoy listening to it.

Enjoy!

Kelly served as Production Assistant, and got to have fun launching her Lady Bug rocket she built in on day on site.

We start with some exciting hot off the presses news from the hobby rocketry scene, then we dive into part one of the NSL 2018 coverage.

We talk to Gregory Young and MaryBeth Clune of the MARS rocket club. MARS was the hosting club for NSL in Geneseo, NY, and what it took to pull off such an amazing event is a story in itself!

We then jump to the Vern and Gleda Estes play where they run through the Origin story of Estes Industries. For the Patrons of the show, you got to hear the raw recordings of this from us some time back. Here is the entire event, including the missing parts from the beginning, courtesy of the MARS Rocket club!

We close the episode with some e-mails from the mailbag, and an answer to
