awesome things going on right now

97

and we have opened a new chapter of

98
00:11:08,389 --> 00:11:06,060
space exploration

99
00:11:11,030 --> 00:11:08,399
during the Artemis One mission in

100
00:11:12,769 --> 00:11:11,040
November the space launch system rocket

101
00:11:14,990 --> 00:11:12,779
built who managed right here in

102
00:11:17,630 --> 00:11:15,000
Huntsville Alabama

103
00:11:19,970 --> 00:11:17,640
carry the Orion spacecraft to lunar

104
00:11:22,009 --> 00:11:19,980
orbit over 250

105
00:11:23,930 --> 00:11:22,019
000 miles further than any human rated

106
00:11:26,030 --> 00:11:23,940
spacecraft had ever flown

107
00:11:29,150 --> 00:11:26,040
it was a historic mission

108
00:11:31,910 --> 00:11:29,160
that paved the way for future deep space

109
00:11:33,710 --> 00:11:31,920
exploration in a new chapter for NASA in

110
00:11:36,829 --> 00:11:33,720
the world

111
00:11:40,370 --> 00:11:36,839
that mission was a plus

112
00:11:42,889 --> 00:11:40,380
and we have been reviewing the data from

113
00:11:46,190 --> 00:11:42,899
that mission and we can clearly say that

114
00:11:53,210 --> 00:11:46,200
we are ready to fly crew on Artemis 2.

115
00:11:57,230 --> 00:11:55,190
recently NASA named the crew for the

116
00:11:59,630 --> 00:11:57,240
Artemis II mission which will be

117
00:12:02,870 --> 00:11:59,640
historic and groundbreaking in itself

118
00:12:04,490 --> 00:12:02,880
as we will fly the first woman in the

119
00:12:10,970 --> 00:12:04,500
first person of color on a deep space

120
00:12:18,350 --> 00:12:13,990
Reid Wiseman Victor Glover Christina cut

121
00:12:19,850 --> 00:12:18,360
and Jeremy Hanson will be the crew to

122
00:12:21,590 --> 00:12:19,860
return humans to the moon for the first

123
00:12:23,990 --> 00:12:21,600
time in 50 years

124
00:12:27,290 --> 00:12:24,000
and that will pave the way

125
00:12:29,269 --> 00:12:27,300
for the next human landing on Artemis 3.

126
00:12:30,949 --> 00:12:29,279
on the human Landing system is being

127
00:12:33,350 --> 00:12:30,959
managed right here at Marshall's space

128
00:12:35,750 --> 00:12:33,360
flight center with our partner SpaceX

129
00:12:37,790 --> 00:12:35,760
we will also land the first woman in the

130
00:12:38,990 --> 00:12:37,800
first person of color on the surface of

131
00:12:41,090 --> 00:12:39,000
the Moon

132
00:12:44,030 --> 00:12:41,100
just an exciting mission that will pave

133
00:12:46,129 --> 00:12:44,040
the way for a sustainable presence on

134
00:12:47,990 --> 00:12:46,139
the moon and to prepare us to go to Mars

135
00:12:50,030 --> 00:12:48,000
which personally that's where I'm ready

136
00:12:51,829 --> 00:12:50,040
to go right who else is ready to go to

137
00:12:55,069 --> 00:12:51,839
Mars

138
00:12:58,190 --> 00:12:56,690
so we're doing this to increase our

139
00:13:01,009 --> 00:12:58,200
scientific knowledge

140
00:13:03,470 --> 00:13:01,019
to improve our national posture

141
00:13:05,329 --> 00:13:03,480

00:15:18,829 --> 00:15:15,420
made it and today is the day you've been

191
00:15:20,509 --> 00:15:18,839
waiting for this is launch day and so

192
00:15:22,009 --> 00:15:20,519
every rocket I need to tell you a little

193
00:15:24,350 --> 00:15:22,019
bit about some of the payloads for some

194
00:15:26,030 --> 00:15:24,360
of those who may not be aware of the

195
00:15:28,009 --> 00:15:26,040
hard work that this these teams have

196
00:15:30,470 --> 00:15:28,019
have put in to try to make this a

197
00:15:32,090 --> 00:15:30,480
reality every rocket contains a

198
00:15:34,250 --> 00:15:32,100
scientific payload

199
00:15:36,470 --> 00:15:34,260
all the university teams are flying a

200
00:15:40,069 --> 00:15:36,480
camera system that will after landing

201
00:15:42,410 --> 00:15:40,079
receive a list of commands that NASA via

202
00:15:44,810 --> 00:15:42,420
sends to it via radio waves

203
00:15:47,210 --> 00:15:44,820
and must execute these specific commands

204
00:15:49,730 --> 00:15:47,220
now several high school teams are also

205
00:15:51,769 --> 00:15:49,740
meeting that same payload Challenge and

206
00:15:54,410 --> 00:15:51,779
others are developing some of their own

207
00:15:56,750 --> 00:15:54,420
kind of custom payloads and so this is

208
00:15:58,730 --> 00:15:56,760
very technical stuff very challenging

209
00:16:02,269 --> 00:15:58,740
stuff and we're so proud of you all for

210
00:16:05,090 --> 00:16:02,279
making it all the way to be here today

211
00:16:07,610 --> 00:16:05,100
so the award ceremony will take place on

212
00:16:09,170 --> 00:16:07,620

213
00:16:11,689 --> 00:16:09,180

sponsors a couple additional sponsors

220

221
00:16:29,810 --> 00:16:26,639
they all deserve a round of applause so

222
00:16:31,550 --> 00:16:29,820

the National Space Club Huntsville has

225
00:16:49,430 --> 00:16:41,459
been a great partner of ours over the

226
00:16:53,689 --> 00:16:51,949
uh we have Nar the National Association

227
00:16:59,569 --> 00:16:53,699

345
00:22:30,649 --> 00:22:27,960
what happens

346
00:22:32,750 --> 00:22:30,659
you are learning a lot more than just

347
00:22:34,970 --> 00:22:32,760
about rockets and how to launch rockets

348
00:22:37,010 --> 00:22:34,980
you're learning about teamwork you

349
00:22:39,289 --> 00:22:37,020

you do in life

356
00:22:56,750 --> 00:22:53,520
I think one of the most important

357
00:22:58,850 --> 00:22:56,760
quality of astronauts is teamwork people

358
00:23:01,070 --> 00:22:58,860
ask me how do I become an astronaut what

359
00:23:02,630 --> 00:23:01,080
do I need to do you need to learn to

360
00:23:04,610 --> 00:23:02,640
work with people and you need to learn

361
00:23:06,590 --> 00:23:04,620
to work with a team and you're learning

362
00:23:09,649 --> 00:23:06,600
that in the efforts that brought you

363
00:23:12,110 --> 00:23:09,659
here today so that's fantastic another

364
00:23:13,850 --> 00:23:12,120
thing that's important I was a

365
00:23:15,590 --> 00:23:13,860
at Auburn a couple of days ago

366
00:23:17,090 --> 00:23:15,600
installing their president and talking

367
00:23:19,430 --> 00:23:17,100
to one of the department heads in

368
00:23:21,830 --> 00:23:19,440
engineering and he said you know

369
00:23:23,810 --> 00:23:21,840
students coming in these days they don't

370
00:23:26,149 --> 00:23:23,820
know how to operate tools or have

371
00:23:28,370 --> 00:23:26,159
hands-on experience or you know the

372
00:23:31,610 --> 00:23:28,380
difference in a Phillips head and a slot

373
00:23:33,409 --> 00:23:31,620
you know screwdriver I'm like really and

374
00:23:36,529 --> 00:23:33,419
they said yeah because of the digital in

375
00:23:38,690 --> 00:23:36,539
you know information is all they know so

376
00:23:42,529 --> 00:23:38,700
I think it's great that you all are

377
00:23:44,870 --> 00:23:42,539
getting this hands-on experience on how

378
00:23:46,610 --> 00:23:44,880
to handle Hardware that will help you

379
00:23:48,950 --> 00:23:46,620
with whatever job you want to do

380
00:23:52,549 --> 00:23:48,960
whatever whatever you want to do in

381
00:23:56,870 --> 00:23:55,490
I grew up here in Huntsville among these

382
00:23:59,750 --> 00:23:56,880
Hills

383
00:24:02,570 --> 00:23:59,760
and I grew up in the Saturn five days

384
00:24:03,950 --> 00:24:02,580
when we were testing the engines right

385
00:24:06,710 --> 00:24:03,960
here in Huntsville

386
00:24:08,810 --> 00:24:06,720
and the whole town would shake and

387
00:24:11,390 --> 00:24:08,820
sometimes Windows would break

388
00:24:13,370 --> 00:24:11,400
so it was a great time to grow up in

389
00:24:15,470 --> 00:24:13,380
Huntsville and it provided me

390
00:24:17,510 --> 00:24:15,480
inspiration to go into engineering and

391
00:24:19,370 --> 00:24:17,520
to become an astronaut

392
00:24:22,310 --> 00:24:19,380
and you know what

393
00:24:25,130 --> 00:24:22,320
you are inspiring the Next Generation

394
00:24:28,070 --> 00:24:25,140
and you are the Artemis generation and

395
00:24:29,029 --> 00:24:28,080
everyone is looking to you to carry us

396
00:24:30,830 --> 00:24:29,039
forward

397
00:24:33,350 --> 00:24:30,840
our country's looking to you our

398
00:24:36,649 --> 00:24:33,360
industry is looking to you and I'm very

399
00:24:39,230 --> 00:24:36,659
excited to be here today to see you and

400
00:24:41,870 --> 00:24:39,240
to talk with you because you are our

401
00:24:46,130 --> 00:24:41,880
future in order to keep our nation at

402
00:24:51,169 --> 00:24:48,110
well I flew on three space shuttle

403
00:24:53,810 --> 00:24:51,179
missions I worked hard in my education

404
00:24:57,049 --> 00:24:53,820
and I encourage you to continue your

405
00:24:58,549 --> 00:24:57,059
education and work hard to finish your

406
00:25:01,549 --> 00:24:58,559
degrees

407
00:25:02,750 --> 00:25:01,559
but I didn't make it the first time I

408
00:25:05,390 --> 00:25:02,760
tried

409
00:25:07,970 --> 00:25:05,400
I had failures along the way I had

410
00:25:10,669 --> 00:25:07,980
things that I had to overcome I didn't

411
00:25:13,310 --> 00:25:10,679
make it till the third try

412
00:25:16,430 --> 00:25:13,320
so if you don't always reach a goal the

413
00:25:18,649 --> 00:25:16,440
first time just keep trying keep at it

414
00:25:21,890 --> 00:25:18,659
do what you need to do to make it happen

415
00:25:25,549 --> 00:25:21,900
to make that dream come true don't let

416
00:25:27,350 --> 00:25:25,559
anybody tell you you can't do something

417
00:25:29,090 --> 00:25:27,360
people told me I couldn't become an

418
00:25:31,430 --> 00:25:29,100
astronaut people told me I couldn't go

419
00:25:33,950 --> 00:25:31,440
to Georgia Tech it was a man's School

420
00:25:36,590 --> 00:25:33,960
but I didn't listen to them if you have

421
00:25:40,850 --> 00:25:36,600
a goal and if you have a dream do what

422
00:25:43,669 --> 00:25:40,860
it takes to make that dream come true

423
00:25:46,370 --> 00:25:43,679
so congratulations again

424
00:25:49,010 --> 00:25:46,380

president and I'm a senior in aerospace

489
00:28:48,470 --> 00:28:46,919
engineering at Auburn okay awesome so I

490
00:28:50,330 --> 00:28:48,480
hear that you guys have a kind of a

491
00:28:51,649 --> 00:28:50,340
special story behind the design and the

492
00:28:53,750 --> 00:28:51,659
look of your rocket can you tell me a

493
00:28:56,269 --> 00:28:53,760
little bit more about that so this year

494
00:28:59,090 --> 00:28:56,279
our rocket was painted by the children's

495
00:29:00,409 --> 00:28:59,100
of Alabama hospital patients uh it was

496
00:29:02,870 --> 00:29:00,419
one of the most rewarding experience

497
00:29:05,210 --> 00:29:02,880
chances everyone on the team has ever

498
00:29:08,029 --> 00:29:05,220
had we went down we went up to

499
00:29:10,250 --> 00:29:08,039
Birmingham uh to get their rocket get

500
00:29:11,690 --> 00:29:10,260
our rocket painted by them uh the kids

501

out of line in line doesn't matter what

506
00:29:27,950 --> 00:29:25,279
yeah it was it was a pretty good design

507
00:29:29,690 --> 00:29:27,960
uh it looks like it's painted by kids

508
00:29:31,430 --> 00:29:29,700

00:30:02,389 --> 00:29:59,460
launch uh we launched our rocket and it

522
00:30:03,950 --> 00:30:02,399
ended up in a power line uh it was we

523
00:30:05,810 --> 00:30:03,960
called it a powered Landing but we have

524
00:30:08,389 --> 00:30:05,820
to we had to call Alabama power to get

525
00:30:11,510 --> 00:30:08,399
our rocket down uh we had a week to

526
00:30:13,549 --> 00:30:11,520
reconstruct the rocket because uh the

527
00:30:14,870 --> 00:30:13,559
week after we were going to uh to

528
00:30:16,909 --> 00:30:14,880
Children's of Alabama to get a rocket

529
00:30:19,549 --> 00:30:16,919
paint and we needed a tested rocket to

530
00:30:20,930 --> 00:30:19,559
for them to paint yeah wow so do you

00:31:19,010 --> 00:31:16,980
electrical engineering and so our team

559
00:31:22,250 --> 00:31:19,020
gets a lot of inspiration from her she's

560
00:31:23,450 --> 00:31:22,260
signed a couple of our Rockets So we

561
00:31:25,970 --> 00:31:23,460
love to be able to see her and we're

562
00:31:28,430 --> 00:31:25,980
really excited to cheer her on anonymous

563
00:31:29,630 --> 00:31:28,440
so an Artemis astronaut inspiring is the

564
00:31:31,010 --> 00:31:29,640
Artemis generation now let's bring

565
00:31:32,990 --> 00:31:31,020
everything a little bit closer to home

566
00:31:35,389 --> 00:31:33,000
your rocket is getting ready to fly

567
00:31:36,889 --> 00:31:35,399
what's going through your mind as you're

568
00:31:39,950 --> 00:31:36,899
getting ready to fly

569
00:31:42,289 --> 00:31:39,960
um definitely nervous excited we have a

570
00:31:43,909 --> 00:31:42,299
lot to get done a lot to um make sure

571
00:31:45,769 --> 00:31:43,919
this rocket is perfect to go in the air

572
00:31:47,570 --> 00:31:45,779
and we all really care about it so much

573
00:31:49,250 --> 00:31:47,580
so yeah we're a little we're a little

574
00:31:50,870 --> 00:31:49,260
stressed but excited

575
00:31:52,070 --> 00:31:50,880
stress but excite is always a good way

576
00:31:54,110 --> 00:31:52,080
to be now one of the things we haven't

577
00:31:55,909 --> 00:31:54,120
touched on yet is payloads this year we

578
00:31:57,649 --> 00:31:55,919
have a really well I think it's a really

579
00:32:01,430 --> 00:31:57,659
cool payload challenge how do you guys

580
00:32:02,389 --> 00:32:01,440
tackle this camera receiving signals

581
00:32:06,889 --> 00:32:02,399
challenge

582
00:32:12,169 --> 00:32:09,529
um with the cameras right in between the

583
00:32:14,149 --> 00:32:12,179
fins so whichever orientation the launch

584
00:32:15,830 --> 00:32:14,159
vehicle lands in then we'll always have

585
00:32:17,570 --> 00:32:15,840
one camera up and we just use

586
00:32:19,490 --> 00:32:17,580
Electronics to determine which one of

587
00:32:21,529 --> 00:32:19,500
those cameras is up and to complete the

588
00:32:25,310 --> 00:32:21,539
challenge and take in the radio signals

589
00:32:28,310 --> 00:32:25,320
via VIA antennas that are on the outside

590
00:32:30,830 --> 00:32:28,320
of our rocket so yeah and um this year

591
00:32:31,970 --> 00:32:30,840
we had a ton of challenges with that

592
00:32:33,889 --> 00:32:31,980
because

593
00:32:37,250 --> 00:32:33,899
um about a week and a half ago our

594
00:32:38,269 --> 00:32:37,260
entire rocket exploded pretty much we

595
00:32:41,029 --> 00:32:38,279
had

596
00:32:42,529 --> 00:32:41,039
um a test launch just for the payload we

597
00:32:44,690 --> 00:32:42,539
had already had a successful launch that

598
00:32:48,070 --> 00:32:44,700
was nearly perfect before then

599
00:32:51,889 --> 00:32:48,080
um and then that launch we had a motor

600
00:32:54,350 --> 00:32:51,899
manufacturer air the motor exploded and

601
00:32:56,570 --> 00:32:54,360
shot through our payload Bay destroying

602
00:32:58,130 --> 00:32:56,580
all the work that we had done

603
00:33:00,769 --> 00:32:58,140
um but I'm really proud to say that our

604
00:33:02,330 --> 00:33:00,779
team has enough of removable components

605
00:33:05,149 --> 00:33:02,340
and replaceable components that we were

606
00:33:07,490 --> 00:33:05,159
able to rebuild the payload and any

607
00:33:11,570 --> 00:33:07,500
damaged parts of the Rockets in 10 days

608
00:33:13,730 --> 00:33:11,580
so um uh the so the payload is about up

609
00:33:16,370 --> 00:33:13,740
back up to 75 percent

610
00:33:17,990 --> 00:33:16,380
um uh use and uh we're really hoping

611
00:33:20,090 --> 00:33:18,000
that it goes well today just because we

612
00:33:22,370 --> 00:33:20,100
put so much work into that so

613
00:33:24,110 --> 00:33:22,380
talk about overcoming adversity now I

614
00:33:28,190 --> 00:33:24,120
understand you guys had to chase down a

615
00:33:31,250 --> 00:33:28,200
part last night too yes so um we in the

616
00:33:34,490 --> 00:33:33,049
at a component of our motor back at home

617
00:33:36,350 --> 00:33:34,500
and it was very important because

618
00:33:37,430 --> 00:33:36,360
obviously the motors went sense the

619
00:33:41,330 --> 00:33:37,440
rocket up

620
00:33:44,450 --> 00:33:41,340
um and uh we were going about to drive

621
00:33:46,130 --> 00:33:44,460
to Atlanta to a motor supplier who had

622
00:33:48,169 --> 00:33:46,140
uh the piece that we needed so about

623
00:33:50,509 --> 00:33:48,179
three of our members hopped in the van

624
00:33:53,149 --> 00:33:50,519
and were ready to drive eight hours

625
00:33:55,970 --> 00:33:53,159
yesterday and Oregon State University

626
00:33:58,730 --> 00:33:55,980
big shout out to them uh saved us and

627
00:34:01,370 --> 00:33:58,740
they had an extra of that piece for our

628
00:34:03,409 --> 00:34:01,380
motor and they lent it to us uh so that

629
00:34:04,250 --> 00:34:03,419
was really great so I was very scared

630
00:34:05,570 --> 00:34:04,260
yesterday we weren't going to be

631
00:34:07,250 --> 00:34:05,580
launching so I'm really happy that we're

632
00:34:08,690 --> 00:34:07,260
launching today what's so awesome and

633
00:34:09,950 --> 00:34:08,700
it's so cool to see the camaraderie

634
00:34:11,450 --> 00:34:09,960
about the teams I know there's a

635
00:34:12,950 --> 00:34:11,460

00:35:49,849 --> 00:35:48,060
local team University of Alabama in

681
00:35:51,829 --> 00:35:49,859
Huntsville joining us so we're super

682
00:35:53,510 --> 00:35:51,839
excited hi there can you introduce

683
00:35:55,250 --> 00:35:53,520
yourself and tell us your major sure my

684
00:35:56,630 --> 00:35:55,260
name is Ethan Walker Jones I'm a senior

685
00:35:58,609 --> 00:35:56,640
aerospace engineer at the University of

686
00:35:59,930 --> 00:35:58,619
Alabama Huntsville okay awesome so tell

687
00:36:01,730 --> 00:35:59,940

688
00:36:03,230 --> 00:36:01,740
the energy like in the team we're super

689
00:36:05,630 --> 00:36:03,240
excited you know we put in a lot of work

690
00:36:07,430 --> 00:36:05,640
the past nine months and we've followed

691
00:36:09,290 --> 00:36:07,440
all our operation procedures and so we

692
00:36:10,849 --> 00:36:09,300
think it's going to work perfectly a

693
00:36:12,829 --> 00:36:10,859
little nervous obviously I don't think

694
00:36:14,930 --> 00:36:12,839
anyone isn't but really excited to see

695
00:36:16,550 --> 00:36:14,940
it come off yeah absolutely so tell me

696
00:36:18,290 --> 00:36:16,560
did you guys face any particular

697
00:36:19,910 --> 00:36:18,300
challenges or difficulties this year

698
00:36:21,890 --> 00:36:19,920
yeah I think you know all teams here

699
00:36:23,510 --> 00:36:21,900
will say they face challenges our

700
00:36:25,310 --> 00:36:23,520
recovery system it's pretty complicated

701
00:36:27,650 --> 00:36:25,320
and so we had some issues with our

702
00:36:29,270 --> 00:36:27,660
parachute opening at apogee but finally

703
00:36:31,609 --> 00:36:29,280
in our third full-scale flight we got it

704
00:36:33,410 --> 00:36:31,619
to open at 600 feet when we wanted it to

705
00:36:35,150 --> 00:36:33,420
so we were all super excited when that

706
00:36:36,950 --> 00:36:35,160
happened although it ended up Landing in

707
00:36:38,870 --> 00:36:36,960
trees above a swamp so we had to go

708
00:36:41,030 --> 00:36:38,880
waiting in the swamp among the

709
00:36:42,710 --> 00:36:41,040
alligators and snakes but we managed to

710
00:36:44,630 --> 00:36:42,720
get our rocket back and it's on the pad

711
00:36:46,010 --> 00:36:44,640
there today yeah so where do you guys

712
00:36:47,810 --> 00:36:46,020
normally launch from when you're

713
00:36:49,849 --> 00:36:47,820
practicing yeah so we have a local field

714
00:36:51,829 --> 00:36:49,859
here in Huntsville with Hara but we've

715
00:36:54,470 --> 00:36:51,839
we've also gone down to Samson Alabama

716
00:36:56,930 --> 00:36:54,480
and up to Elizabethtown and Hopkinsville

717
00:37:00,470 --> 00:36:58,490
hi me do you guys have like a particular

718
00:37:02,810 --> 00:37:00,480
name for your rocket do you guys do that

719
00:37:03,829 --> 00:37:02,820
or our name for our rocket this year is

720
00:37:05,930 --> 00:37:03,839
Argo

721
00:37:08,210 --> 00:37:05,940
our team mentors Jason and Jason was the

722
00:37:09,890 --> 00:37:08,220
captain of the Argo and the the miss so

723
00:37:11,870 --> 00:37:09,900
okay so tell me the reasoning behind the

724
00:37:14,089 --> 00:37:11,880
name I we couldn't come up with anything

725
00:37:16,069 --> 00:37:14,099
so that was the best idea that we had uh

726
00:37:17,870 --> 00:37:16,079
and the team liked it and so our payload

727
00:37:19,849 --> 00:37:17,880
is called The Argonaut so it is flying

728
00:37:21,230 --> 00:37:19,859
on the Argo okay so how big is your team

729
00:37:23,030 --> 00:37:21,240
how many people are on the team so we

730
00:37:24,950 --> 00:37:23,040
have 24 members we're a senior design

731
00:37:26,329 --> 00:37:24,960
team so we're all Senior Aerospace and

732
00:37:27,710 --> 00:37:26,339
mechanical engineers

733
00:37:29,870 --> 00:37:27,720
um so we're all about to graduate so

734
00:37:31,730 --> 00:37:29,880
okay awesome well is there anyone you

735
00:37:33,530 --> 00:37:31,740
want to thank back home any sponsors or

736
00:37:35,510 --> 00:37:33,540
mentors sure yeah I'd love to thank our

737
00:37:37,310 --> 00:37:35,520
professor Dr Limeberry and our Mentor

738
00:37:39,950 --> 00:37:37,320
Jason Winningham as well as all our

739
00:37:42,109 --> 00:37:39,960

first launch we're getting close lane

750
00:38:02,930 --> 00:38:00,420
I'm looking over your shoulders looking

751
00:38:05,150 --> 00:38:02,940
at the rail a lot fewer people out there

752
00:38:06,530 --> 00:38:05,160
they're uh doing final checks and

753
00:38:08,630 --> 00:38:06,540
everything so we should be flying here

754
00:38:10,849 --> 00:38:08,640
shortly we do have another team join us

755
00:38:13,370 --> 00:38:10,859
one that's really has a really cool

756
00:38:15,170 --> 00:38:13,380
story a team that actually had to fly to

757
00:38:17,030 --> 00:38:15,180
get here so let's bring in the

758
00:38:21,230 --> 00:38:17,040
University of Puerto Rico and hear what

759
00:38:27,530 --> 00:38:25,190
how's everyone doing today great good so

760
00:38:29,690 --> 00:38:27,540
tell us uh first is your rocket out

761
00:38:32,630 --> 00:38:29,700
there on the pad right now no we are

762
00:38:35,270 --> 00:38:32,640
going to the second Valley right now we

763
00:38:37,550 --> 00:38:35,280
plan on having us on some lunch with as

764
00:38:38,750 --> 00:38:37,560
successful excellent so you mentioned

765
00:38:40,250 --> 00:38:38,760
your payload I'm going to ask you about

766
00:38:40,970 --> 00:38:40,260
how are you guys tackling this year's

767
00:38:44,089 --> 00:38:40,980
challenge

768
00:38:46,670 --> 00:38:44,099
so throughout the whole year we have

769
00:38:49,310 --> 00:38:46,680
through the a lot of challenges starting

770
00:38:52,069 --> 00:38:49,320
from the topography where to launch and

771
00:38:53,930 --> 00:38:52,079
the coordination with the airport we

772
00:38:55,190 --> 00:38:53,940
always have constant communication with

773
00:38:57,410 --> 00:38:55,200
the airport having constant

774
00:39:00,890 --> 00:38:57,420
communication with the authority of

775
00:39:04,069 --> 00:39:00,900
Courts which they authorize us to go in

776
00:39:07,490 --> 00:39:04,079
the the place of the launch site in

777
00:39:09,770 --> 00:39:07,500
order to launch our rocket and one of

778
00:39:12,349 --> 00:39:09,780
the biggest challenges besides that is

779
00:39:14,810 --> 00:39:12,359
manufacturing per se the big rocket

780
00:39:17,329 --> 00:39:14,820
because we depend a lot on the

781
00:39:20,390 --> 00:39:17,339
University and other sponsors that we

782
00:39:22,430 --> 00:39:20,400
have that support us and our motor

783
00:39:25,910 --> 00:39:22,440
mounts especially that is made out of

784
00:39:28,550 --> 00:39:25,920
aluminum we had a hard time looking on

785
00:39:31,910 --> 00:39:28,560
how we were going to weld that in and

786
00:39:35,089 --> 00:39:31,920
how to find a shop that could do the job

787
00:39:37,370 --> 00:39:35,099
and having to mount all that together to

788
00:39:40,010 --> 00:39:37,380
the rocket another challenge that we had

789
00:39:43,010 --> 00:39:40,020
is the payload per se because this year

790
00:39:45,829 --> 00:39:43,020
we're launching a Rover and that Rover

791
00:39:48,290 --> 00:39:45,839
gets out of the rocket once it lands and

792
00:39:52,130 --> 00:39:48,300
then it stands up up straight and then

793
00:39:55,550 --> 00:39:52,140
takes the picture 360. yeah and that's

794
00:39:58,370 --> 00:39:55,560
very unique from our team and we put

795
00:40:00,770 --> 00:39:58,380
everything on it and we're still even

796
00:40:03,950 --> 00:40:00,780
now working on a few Financial software

797
00:40:06,170 --> 00:40:03,960
touches before we launch and yeah I

798
00:40:07,970 --> 00:40:06,180
don't know if I left anything up I'm

799
00:40:10,250 --> 00:40:07,980
sorry for all the teams that are back

800
00:40:13,609 --> 00:40:10,260
there and thank you for watching the

801
00:40:16,370 --> 00:40:13,619
family members and all our sponsors and

802
00:40:20,150 --> 00:40:16,380
our I also want to thank our mentors

803
00:40:22,490 --> 00:40:20,160
such as the professor dionetta which

804
00:40:25,550 --> 00:40:22,500
helped us a lot this year also we want

805
00:40:27,770 --> 00:40:25,560
to thank Gary which is the president of

806
00:40:32,690 --> 00:40:27,780
offering on Democracy they they helped

807
00:40:34,790 --> 00:40:32,700
us out a lot and yeah um I think to

808
00:40:36,349 --> 00:40:34,800
write this write things up I want to

809
00:40:42,770 --> 00:40:36,359
finish with a phrase that we like to say

810
00:40:46,970 --> 00:40:44,870
there you have it pure University of

811
00:40:48,530 --> 00:40:46,980
Puerto Rico so excited to have you here

812
00:40:50,089 --> 00:40:48,540
thank you for all the dedication thank

813
00:40:52,430 --> 00:40:50,099
you for working around an airport

814
00:40:53,810 --> 00:40:52,440
schedule just to fly your teslaits we

815
00:40:56,030 --> 00:40:53,820
wish you the best luck and we can't wait

816
00:40:57,950 --> 00:40:56,040
to see you fly here shortly thank you so

817
00:41:00,349 --> 00:40:57,960
much thanks you guys

818
00:41:01,970 --> 00:41:00,359
we're gonna bring Elaine back in we are

819
00:41:04,670 --> 00:41:01,980
still doing team interviews with you

820
00:41:07,130 --> 00:41:04,680
getting closer ever closer launch Lane

821
00:41:09,410 --> 00:41:07,140
they had to work around an Airport's

822
00:41:11,450 --> 00:41:09,420
flight schedule just be able to and that

823
00:41:13,490 --> 00:41:11,460
was just almost seemingly the easiest

824
00:41:15,170 --> 00:41:13,500
challenge they faced out here today yeah

825
00:41:18,589 --> 00:41:15,180
kind of kind of emblematic of what our

826
00:41:20,630 --> 00:41:18,599
teams do every year yeah yeah absolutely

827
00:41:22,670 --> 00:41:20,640
there are so many different elements and

828
00:41:25,010 --> 00:41:22,680
things that can go wrong or go right so

829
00:41:26,870 --> 00:41:25,020
there's a lot to to consider when you're

830
00:41:29,030 --> 00:41:26,880
launching a rocket as we know very well

831
00:41:30,950 --> 00:41:29,040
at Nasa as well well and we we touched

832
00:41:32,870 --> 00:41:30,960
on the payload challenges so each of

833
00:41:34,730 --> 00:41:32,880
these Rockets have a payload on board

834
00:41:36,589 --> 00:41:34,740
for the University and high school teams

835
00:41:37,790 --> 00:41:36,599
they're dictating which payload they can

836
00:41:39,530 --> 00:41:37,800
bring we're going to be hearing more

837
00:41:40,550 --> 00:41:39,540
about the payloads the high school teams

838
00:41:41,690 --> 00:41:40,560
they're going to pick their own

839
00:41:43,670 --> 00:41:41,700
challenge they can pick the university

840
00:41:45,710 --> 00:41:43,680
challenge or they can come up with their

841
00:41:47,390 --> 00:41:45,720
own creation and truly they have some

842
00:41:49,069 --> 00:41:47,400
incredible Creations now we've got a

843
00:41:50,930 --> 00:41:49,079
team back here behind me we are getting

844
00:41:52,670 --> 00:41:50,940
close to lunch I think we can get

845
00:41:54,050 --> 00:41:52,680
another team interview and what do you

846
00:41:55,250 --> 00:41:54,060

we've been trying for this competition

861
00:42:22,550 --> 00:42:20,760
for several years and this is actually

862
00:42:25,069 --> 00:42:22,560
our very first time being able to make

863
00:42:26,990 --> 00:42:25,079
it in person so our whole team is super

864
00:42:28,490 --> 00:42:27,000
excited to be here we're ready to go for

865
00:42:30,710 --> 00:42:28,500
launch just looking forward to it

866
00:42:35,089 --> 00:42:30,720
absolutely so tell me did you guys face

867
00:42:38,390 --> 00:42:36,710
um yeah I think our one of our biggest

868
00:42:41,089 --> 00:42:38,400
ones was

869
00:42:43,130 --> 00:42:41,099
um for our subscale flight our avionics

870
00:42:46,550 --> 00:42:43,140
Bay actually exploded so we had to spend

871
00:42:48,650 --> 00:42:46,560
about I think eight hours at

872
00:42:50,810 --> 00:42:48,660
um our little research area

873
00:42:54,710 --> 00:42:50,820
um stayed up until like 4 30 a.m

874
00:42:56,750 --> 00:42:54,720
launched that morning at about 11 A.M so

875
00:42:58,970 --> 00:42:56,760
that was a rough morning but we got it

876
00:43:00,230 --> 00:42:58,980
we got it done and it was a it was a fun

877
00:43:02,270 --> 00:43:00,240
experience yeah

878
00:43:03,290 --> 00:43:02,280
today so that's super exciting can you

879
00:43:05,270 --> 00:43:03,300
tell me a little bit more about your

880
00:43:08,510 --> 00:43:05,280
payload and the design of that

881
00:43:10,190 --> 00:43:08,520
sure so our payload uses a a motor

882
00:43:12,109 --> 00:43:10,200
attached to a lead screw that is

883
00:43:14,150 --> 00:43:12,119
actually attached to the nose cone and

884
00:43:16,130 --> 00:43:14,160
when the payload lands it'll Orient

885
00:43:17,930 --> 00:43:16,140
itself and then the motor pushes the

886
00:43:19,490 --> 00:43:17,940
lead screw off twist the nose cone

887
00:43:21,470 --> 00:43:19,500
actually away from the body tube and our

888
00:43:24,349 --> 00:43:21,480
camera pops up and can take pictures of

889
00:43:26,210 --> 00:43:24,359
the land around it awesome so where do

890
00:43:27,770 --> 00:43:26,220
you guys launch from how close is it to

891
00:43:30,530 --> 00:43:27,780
your University when you're practicing

892
00:43:32,210 --> 00:43:30,540
we launch about 45 minutes away from

893
00:43:34,609 --> 00:43:32,220
Ohio State we're lucky to have a launch

894
00:43:36,230 --> 00:43:34,619
field that's near us okay awesome do you

895
00:43:40,370 --> 00:43:36,240

924
00:44:42,470 --> 00:44:40,440
Josie is celebrating her 16th birthday

925
00:44:44,030 --> 00:44:42,480
so she has the honors of pressing the

926
00:44:45,589 --> 00:44:44,040
button and she's actually grown up on

927
00:44:46,970 --> 00:44:45,599
Bragg Farm since student launch started

928
00:44:48,890 --> 00:44:46,980
launching here so she's seen a lot of

929
00:44:52,130 --> 00:44:48,900
rocket launches for her birthday so it's

930
00:44:53,930 --> 00:44:52,140
always great to have the support of

931
00:44:55,730 --> 00:44:53,940

940
00:45:24,650 --> 00:45:21,900
getting their Electronics ready and then

you put two hands together there we go I

977
00:46:39,230 --> 00:46:37,440
hear like three people CL there we go so

978
00:46:42,109 --> 00:46:39,240
when the Rocket's successful that's what

979
00:46:44,089 --> 00:46:42,119
you do okay and then those were that are

980
00:46:45,950 --> 00:46:44,099
online and thanks for joining I think

981
00:46:48,589 --> 00:46:45,960
we're live either YouTube or Facebook

982
00:46:51,309 --> 00:46:48,599
maybe both but I've been seeing some of

983
00:46:53,870 --> 00:46:51,319
the chat there online as well so

984
00:46:56,809 --> 00:46:53,880
I did just want to start a little bit

985
00:46:58,069 --> 00:46:56,819
into some of the safety briefing um

986
00:47:00,230 --> 00:46:58,079
because I know we didn't get a chance to

987
00:47:02,030 --> 00:47:00,240
get to that so I wanted to practice a

988
00:47:04,670 --> 00:47:02,040
couple things with with the group here

989
00:47:06,530 --> 00:47:04,680
live today so we say like look listen

990
00:47:08,510 --> 00:47:06,540
and point that's what we really mean so

991
00:47:09,890 --> 00:47:08,520
when the Rockets are flying you want to

992
00:47:12,589 --> 00:47:09,900
be paying attention and being

993
00:47:14,150 --> 00:47:12,599
intentional so let's say from a scenario

994
00:47:16,130 --> 00:47:14,160
standpoint we don't intend it to happen

995
00:47:18,470 --> 00:47:16,140
but let's say a rocket may start to

996
00:47:20,930 --> 00:47:18,480
drift here in the crowd you need to be

997
00:47:22,970 --> 00:47:20,940
able to look listen and point so

998
00:47:25,010 --> 00:47:22,980
everyone take your hand and point it up

999
00:47:27,530 --> 00:47:25,020
want to make sure you practice so if a

1000
00:47:29,329 --> 00:47:27,540
rock is coming in you point then also

1001
00:47:31,550 --> 00:47:29,339
point to your neighbor nud your neighbor

1002
00:47:32,930 --> 00:47:31,560
and let them know to look up as well I

1003
00:47:34,730 --> 00:47:32,940
don't see a lot of hands up so that

1004
00:47:36,230 --> 00:47:34,740
means people are not paying attention so

1005
00:47:38,390 --> 00:47:36,240
we got to get that practice got to get

1006
00:47:41,150 --> 00:47:38,400
that Cadence we don't get a do-over with

1007
00:47:43,250 --> 00:47:41,160
rockets okay so you got to practice that

1008
00:47:44,569 --> 00:47:43,260
if a rocket is coming in you don't want

1009
00:47:46,730 --> 00:47:44,579
to run from it okay you can put your

1010
00:47:48,950 --> 00:47:46,740
hand down sorry

1011
00:47:51,770 --> 00:47:48,960
um you do not want to run from a rocket

1012
00:47:54,589 --> 00:47:51,780
if you see it even under parachute don't

1013
00:48:11,390 --> 00:47:54,599
want to run from it just watch it take a

1014
00:48:15,770 --> 00:48:13,430
and just when you're moving away from it

1015
00:48:17,690 --> 00:48:15,780
in the events coming in in a parachute

1016
00:48:19,550 --> 00:48:17,700
make sure you move in a lateral

1017
00:48:22,370 --> 00:48:19,560
Direction can't move forward or back as

1018
00:48:24,720 --> 00:48:22,380
easy so just keep that in mind you'll

1019
00:48:26,089 --> 00:48:24,730
hear a really loud uh siren go off

1020
00:48:29,089 --> 00:48:26,099
[Music]

1021
00:48:31,309 --> 00:48:29,099
if it's coming in over by us and if it's

1022
00:48:32,630 --> 00:48:31,319
not yours don't touch it don't don't

1023
00:48:34,970 --> 00:48:32,640
need to be bothered with it and keep

1024
00:48:36,890 --> 00:48:34,980
distance away from it so just a couple

1025
00:48:38,809 --> 00:48:36,900
of those things from a safety briefing

1026
00:48:40,910 --> 00:48:38,819
standpoint

1027
00:48:43,490 --> 00:48:40,920
and just so that those have a little bit

1028
00:48:46,309 --> 00:48:43,500
of background I'm Gerald here and my

1029
00:48:47,930 --> 00:48:46,319
role is the launch control officer here

1030
00:48:50,930 --> 00:48:47,940
to be a part of the uh within our

1031
00:48:53,870 --> 00:48:50,940
organization not I'm saying I'm not a

1032
00:48:56,030 --> 00:48:53,880
professional so I did talk to all the

1033
00:48:58,730 --> 00:48:56,040
teams I took some notes as best as I

1034
00:49:00,050 --> 00:48:58,740
could you use a lot of acronyms so I did

1035
00:49:01,910 --> 00:49:00,060
struggle with some of that stuff and

1036
00:49:04,490 --> 00:49:01,920
some technology in terms I've never

1037
00:49:06,710 --> 00:49:04,500
heard of before so I'll use those as

1038
00:49:08,270 --> 00:49:06,720
best as I can but want to have some fun

1039
00:49:10,970 --> 00:49:08,280
in connection with everyone here today

1040
00:49:12,710 --> 00:49:10,980
with and also those online

1041
00:49:14,990 --> 00:49:12,720
so there's a few more things that those

1042
00:49:16,970 --> 00:49:15,000
teams have to do they'll come back in

1043
00:49:19,010 --> 00:49:16,980
and we'll get going if there's any

1044
00:49:59,329 --> 00:49:19,020
questions just let any one of us know

1045
00:50:03,710 --> 00:50:01,670
so I did just receive confirmation the

1046
00:50:06,109 --> 00:50:03,720
uh we're arming all the boxes and you

1047
00:50:07,790 --> 00:50:06,119
see the finals of the teams coming back

1048
00:50:10,730 --> 00:50:07,800
in and then also those that are working

1049
00:50:12,770 --> 00:50:10,740
on the 500 and 300 foot pads so we're

1050
00:52:09,770 --> 00:50:12,780
probably within five to ten minutes of

1051
00:52:09,780 --> 00:52:30,730
zero

1052
00:52:30,740 --> 00:52:40,870
all right

1053
00:52:44,870 --> 00:52:43,309
okay we're ready to get this show on the

1054
00:52:47,450 --> 00:52:44,880
road this is a pretty exciting so we got

1055
00:52:50,630 --> 00:52:47,460
the 2023

1056
00:52:53,450 --> 00:52:50,640
usli SLI competition here at the Bragg

1057
00:52:55,970 --> 00:52:53,460
Farm put on by NASA and supported with

1058
00:52:59,450 --> 00:52:55,980
uh folks from Nar so the very first team

1059
00:53:01,010 --> 00:52:59,460
going today this is UNC Pembroke or

1060
00:53:03,349 --> 00:53:01,020
Pembroke rocket team they're from

1061
00:53:05,750 --> 00:53:03,359
Pembroke North Carolina the name of this

1062
00:53:07,130 --> 00:53:05,760
rocket is called small boy now I hear

1063
00:53:09,410 --> 00:53:07,140
some clapping over there so it's a eight

1064
00:53:12,069 --> 00:53:09,420
pound rocket four inch in diameter six

1065
00:53:14,390 --> 00:53:12,079
feet tall it's flying on an Aerotech

1066
00:53:16,730 --> 00:53:14,400
j540 Redline

1067
00:53:18,770 --> 00:53:16,740
they did not put any notes down but I

1068
00:53:22,790 --> 00:53:18,780
was able to catch and see them for just

1069
00:53:27,410 --> 00:53:25,670
so this is their first time here they've

1070
00:53:29,270 --> 00:53:27,420
um they've had three different team let

1071
00:53:31,190 --> 00:53:29,280
three different team leaders but they

1072
00:53:33,290 --> 00:53:31,200
still did show up

1073
00:53:35,329 --> 00:53:33,300
um they also have a strong social media

1074
00:53:38,030 --> 00:53:35,339
game they have Instagram Tick Tock

1075
00:53:39,230 --> 00:53:38,040
Facebook Twitter Youtube and um they

1076
00:53:40,910 --> 00:53:39,240
normally compete in the First Nations

1077
00:53:42,770 --> 00:53:40,920
launch but they are branching out this

1078
00:53:44,809 --> 00:53:42,780
year I had to know why do they call it

1079
00:53:46,849 --> 00:53:44,819
small boy with an eye and it's said with

1080
00:53:48,410 --> 00:53:46,859
an eye one of their team members was

1081
00:53:50,270 --> 00:53:48,420
assessing all the parts they did not

1082
00:53:52,609 --> 00:53:50,280
know what rocket parts were and they

1083
00:53:54,290 --> 00:53:52,619
called The Switch band the small boy so

1084
00:53:57,109 --> 00:53:54,300
there's a new technical rocket term

1085
00:53:58,609 --> 00:53:57,119
switch band equals small boy okay we're

1086
00:54:01,849 --> 00:53:58,619

00:54:37,380 --> 00:54:42,910
foreign

1101
00:54:50,809 --> 00:54:48,109
The Crowd Goes Wild so flying on a j540

1102
00:54:55,309 --> 00:54:50,819
rad this is supposed to be going 5200

1103
00:54:55,319 --> 00:55:09,650
it's not oh I see an event

1104
00:55:09,660 --> 00:55:13,670
yep there is an event on it

1105
00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:20,150
nice Clear Blue Sky to start us off

1106
00:55:23,569 --> 00:55:22,309
the main is supposed to be at 600 feet

1107
00:55:27,589 --> 00:55:23,579
so there's a little bit of distance

1108
00:55:28,730 --> 00:55:27,599
between 5200 estimated down to 600 but

1109
00:55:32,510 --> 00:55:28,740
that's why we have the small drug

1110
00:55:34,670 --> 00:55:32,520
parachute that gets it down to a to 600

1111
00:55:37,370 --> 00:55:34,680
feet pretty quickly and then at 600 feet

1112
00:56:14,450 --> 00:55:37,380
a much larger parachute comes out and

1113
00:56:19,130 --> 00:56:17,030
okay I see it just below the Sun but

1114
00:56:21,290 --> 00:56:19,140
like my mother and father told me don't

1115
00:56:23,630 --> 00:56:21,300
ever look into the Sun so just right

1116
00:56:27,290 --> 00:56:23,640
below it there's the rocket under drug

1117
00:56:31,069 --> 00:56:29,150
so it's like pretty much due east of

1118
00:56:33,349 --> 00:56:31,079
where we're at

1119
00:56:35,750 --> 00:56:33,359
so we're probably a thousand feet about

1120
00:56:37,849 --> 00:56:35,760
now so pretty quick here we should see

1121
00:56:42,890 --> 00:56:37,859
the main there's 600 feet

1122
00:56:48,650 --> 00:56:45,230
Crowd Goes Wild a nice good clap there

1123
00:56:54,589 --> 00:56:48,660
but I bet the Pembroke team is pretty

1124
00:56:58,329 --> 00:56:56,930
almost to the ground and then they have

1125
00:57:00,530 --> 00:56:58,339
to do their

1126
00:57:01,450 --> 00:57:00,540
experiment which is going to be involved

1127
00:57:05,390 --> 00:57:01,460
with

1128
00:57:07,130 --> 00:57:05,400
photography communication back from the

1129
00:57:08,329 --> 00:57:07,140
specified location to the team and then

1130
00:57:15,650 --> 00:57:08,339
they take all their pictures so

1131
00:57:19,490 --> 00:57:17,809
and a reminder to the team don't go and

1132
00:57:27,710 --> 00:57:19,500
recover your rocket until the range is

1133
00:57:32,510 --> 00:57:29,930
so we're going to go in numerical order

1134
00:57:39,109 --> 00:57:32,520
so we're now going to go over to pad

1135
00:57:43,130 --> 00:57:41,329
okay we're hold for helicopter

1136
00:57:45,589 --> 00:57:43,140
so that's one of the other things if you

1137
00:57:48,829 --> 00:57:45,599
see aircraft in the air we don't want to

1138
00:57:50,630 --> 00:57:48,839
uh disrupt or disturb them we do have a

1139
00:57:52,309 --> 00:57:50,640
clearance to fly Rockets but sometimes

1140
00:57:54,230 --> 00:57:52,319
we have some

1141
00:57:57,230 --> 00:57:54,240
other aircraft in the area we do not

1142
00:58:00,530 --> 00:57:57,240
want to be sharing it so someone see

1143
00:58:01,849 --> 00:58:00,540
something say something

1144
00:58:04,730 --> 00:58:01,859
well I'll start reading off the flight

1145
00:58:06,890 --> 00:58:04,740
card here so on pad number 11 we have

1146
00:58:09,170 --> 00:58:06,900
aiaab

1147
00:58:10,730 --> 00:58:09,180
OC section which is down in Irvine

1148
00:58:12,530 --> 00:58:10,740
California

1149
00:58:14,630 --> 00:58:12,540
the name of this rocket is called red

1150
00:58:17,030 --> 00:58:14,640
lightning 15 and a half pounds three

1151
00:58:20,390 --> 00:58:17,040
inch in diameter eight foot tall flying

1152
00:58:22,730 --> 00:58:20,400
on an Aerotech k2050 that's a very

1153
00:58:24,290 --> 00:58:22,740
healthy Punchy motor just knowing that

1154
00:58:26,450 --> 00:58:24,300
from experience

1155
00:58:28,190 --> 00:58:26,460
so for their science experiment and

1156
00:58:31,309 --> 00:58:28,200
payload information is called the

1157
00:58:33,410 --> 00:58:31,319
additive velocity payload that has a

1158
00:58:36,829 --> 00:58:33,420
buzzer that will emit sound and two

1159
00:58:39,349 --> 00:58:36,839
microphones one aft and one under the

1160
00:58:40,730 --> 00:58:39,359
rear of the buzzer both microphones will

1161
00:58:43,910 --> 00:58:40,740
be observed

1162
00:58:45,890 --> 00:58:43,920
the frequency shift of the buzzer during

1163
00:58:48,049 --> 00:58:45,900
a sense I hope all of you got and

1164
00:58:49,730 --> 00:58:48,059
understood that

1165
00:58:51,230 --> 00:58:49,740
um one of the other things I did notice

1166
00:58:53,630 --> 00:58:51,240
when I looked at the rocket it's a

1167
00:58:56,690 --> 00:58:53,640
fairly small diameter rocket on a k2050

1168
00:58:59,089 --> 00:58:56,700
it's going to go right to 5000 feet they

1169
00:59:01,089 --> 00:58:59,099
also use some very thick fiberglass fins

1170
00:59:03,650 --> 00:59:01,099
so those fins probably will never break

1171
00:59:05,089 --> 00:59:03,660
they did not have a name when I a name

1172
00:59:08,630 --> 00:59:05,099
with a rocket and I guess they did

1173
00:59:11,270 --> 00:59:08,640
settle on uh red lightning they do have

1174
00:59:13,849 --> 00:59:11,280
11 team members seven of them are here

1175
00:59:15,410 --> 00:59:13,859
the team also said to me they had fun

1176
00:59:17,510 --> 00:59:15,420
time working together and they did not

1177
00:59:19,910 --> 00:59:17,520
have time to paint it there you go so

1178
00:59:22,549 --> 00:59:19,920
we're gonna go on pad number 11. this is

1179
00:59:25,430 --> 00:59:22,559
red lightning on a k2050 to 5000 feet

1180
00:59:32,809 --> 00:59:25,440
clear sky clear range we're gonna launch

1181
00:59:41,210 --> 00:59:36,049
yep I know the k2050s that's the super

1182
00:59:45,410 --> 00:59:43,190
no you don't need to apologize I hear

1183
00:59:47,150 --> 00:59:45,420
some sorrys nope nope that's let's rock

1184
00:59:50,390 --> 00:59:47,160
a tree that's what we do

1185
00:59:50,400 --> 00:59:54,230
there's a

1186
00:59:54,240 --> 01:00:01,609
okay I can see it under drogue

1187
01:00:09,049 --> 01:00:03,589
so right now it's under drove the main

1188
01:00:14,750 --> 01:00:11,210
so I don't know if they're uh stuff to

1189
01:00:16,069 --> 01:00:14,760
test for frequency and buzzers I don't

1190
01:00:42,049 --> 01:00:16,079
know if that's gonna work that went up

1191
01:00:45,890 --> 01:00:44,569
oh there's the main event just right by

1192
01:00:48,289 --> 01:00:45,900
the Sun

1193
01:00:56,150 --> 01:00:48,299
the team is very happy and satisfied

1194
01:01:11,690 --> 01:00:58,130
so that won't land too far away that

1195
01:01:14,930 --> 01:01:13,910
okay we're gonna go to pad number 12.

1196
01:01:20,809 --> 01:01:14,940
this is

1197
01:01:23,150 --> 01:01:20,819
of Charlottesville Virginia

1198
01:01:27,230 --> 01:01:23,160
the name of this rocket is decently

1199
01:01:29,270 --> 01:01:27,240
sized Dipper it's a 16 pound rocket 4

1200
01:01:33,849 --> 01:01:29,280
inch in diameter seven feet three inches

1201
01:01:37,849 --> 01:01:33,859
tall flying on a k535 for the

1202
01:01:40,010 --> 01:01:37,859
electronics it says uh piezoelectronics

1203
01:01:42,950 --> 01:01:40,020
generators we are measuring how much

1204
01:01:45,890 --> 01:01:42,960
electricity can be harnessed or

1205
01:01:47,210 --> 01:01:45,900
harvested from vibrations as the rocket

1206
01:01:49,069 --> 01:01:47,220
ascends

1207
01:01:50,630 --> 01:01:49,079
a Boy Scout Troop folks that's pretty

1208
01:01:52,490 --> 01:01:50,640
impressive

1209
01:01:54,650 --> 01:01:52,500
couple will notes I noticed from this

1210
01:01:57,530 --> 01:01:54,660
team this is playing on Aerotek k535

1211
01:01:59,690 --> 01:01:57,540
should go about 4 500 feet

1212
01:02:01,670 --> 01:01:59,700
um so they did have a a saying on the

1213
01:02:03,950 --> 01:02:01,680
Rock is called the dream is alive it's a

1214
01:02:06,109 --> 01:02:03,960
actually the famous words from the sts-1

1215
01:02:08,089 --> 01:02:06,119
shuttle mission John Young upon

1216
01:02:11,030 --> 01:02:08,099
touchdown back to Earth after the

1217
01:02:13,069 --> 01:02:11,040
mission this team had a lot of fun and

1218
01:02:14,510 --> 01:02:13,079
um they had a lot of dad jokes included

1219
01:02:17,089 --> 01:02:14,520
with the building of this rocket

1220
01:02:18,710 --> 01:02:17,099
including launching a volley of puns I

1221
01:02:20,150 --> 01:02:18,720
did not say that that was one of the dad

1222
01:02:21,829 --> 01:02:20,160
jokes though

1223
01:02:23,589 --> 01:02:21,839
um they did contract out the paint job

1224
01:02:25,490 --> 01:02:23,599
came back a little different but after

1225
01:02:27,170 --> 01:02:25,500
thinking about it they ended up really

1226
01:02:28,309 --> 01:02:27,180
really liking it

1227
01:02:30,829 --> 01:02:28,319
um they're out and they're also they

1228
01:02:32,569 --> 01:02:30,839
have a PR person named Mason who did

1229
01:02:34,609 --> 01:02:32,579
very well supporting the team including

1230
01:02:36,470 --> 01:02:34,619
live streaming the scale flight they

1231
01:02:39,230 --> 01:02:36,480
also did a GoFundMe this is a very

1232
01:02:41,329 --> 01:02:39,240
relaxed team with varying age rages Boy

1233
01:02:43,130 --> 01:02:41,339
Scouts it can range from age 10 to age

1234
01:02:45,109 --> 01:02:43,140
18 and they cover all the gamut with

1235
01:02:47,329 --> 01:02:45,119
this team pretty impressive work okay

1236
01:02:49,609 --> 01:02:47,339
we're gonna go to pad 12. clear sky

1237
01:03:02,870 --> 01:02:49,619
clear range we're gonna launch in five

1238
01:03:14,809 --> 01:03:05,630
nice boost the crowd seems to be

1239
01:03:14,819 --> 01:03:20,390
oh there's an event

1240
01:03:27,470 --> 01:03:24,349
so that was supposed to go 4 500 feet

1241
01:03:34,730 --> 01:03:27,480
I don't know if it went 4 500 feet but

1242
01:03:40,130 --> 01:03:36,770
and it's really small drogue the main is

1243
01:03:42,530 --> 01:03:40,140
set for 700 feet

1244
01:03:44,569 --> 01:03:42,540
oh there it is

1245
01:03:46,250 --> 01:03:44,579
all right

1246
01:03:51,230 --> 01:03:46,260
I hope they harnessed a lot of

1247
01:03:54,470 --> 01:03:53,089
it's a shocking flight oh yeah we gotta

1248
01:03:56,930 --> 01:03:54,480
use all the dad jokes for this team

1249
01:04:00,410 --> 01:03:56,940
that's right

1250
01:04:02,450 --> 01:04:00,420
okay moving on to pad number 20. this is

1251
01:04:04,490 --> 01:04:02,460
a Whitney Young Aerospace out of Whitney

1252
01:04:07,609 --> 01:04:04,500
uh or the school's Whitney Young out of

1253
01:04:12,470 --> 01:04:07,619
Chicago Illinois the name of this rocket

1254
01:04:15,950 --> 01:04:12,480
is a Red Rider it's a 26.35 pounds five

1255
01:04:20,690 --> 01:04:15,960
inch in diameter 103 inches tall

1256
01:04:23,510 --> 01:04:20,700
is flying on a Aerotech k1000 it should

1257
01:04:26,270 --> 01:04:23,520
go about 3 700 feet for the um

1258
01:04:28,069 --> 01:04:26,280
experiment information

1259
01:04:33,410 --> 01:04:28,079
um

1260
01:04:38,750 --> 01:04:35,930
okay so with this team they're doing the

1261
01:04:42,230 --> 01:04:38,760
same as College usli requirements

1262
01:04:44,089 --> 01:04:42,240
without the aprs utilization and it says

1263
01:04:45,710 --> 01:04:44,099
automated

1264
01:04:47,809 --> 01:04:45,720
um with this team but they told me that

1265
01:04:49,010 --> 01:04:47,819
oh they're payload they call it pixel so

1266
01:04:50,329 --> 01:04:49,020
if you look at the rocket it's kind of

1267
01:04:52,430 --> 01:04:50,339
hard to see it's red and black but it's

1268
01:04:55,309 --> 01:04:52,440
got a pretty cool pixelated paint job

1269
01:04:58,609 --> 01:04:55,319
and the payload does take pictures upon

1270
01:05:00,829 --> 01:04:58,619
Landing okay on pad 20. we have a clear

1271
01:05:10,849 --> 01:05:00,839
sky we have a clear range we will launch

1272
01:05:17,089 --> 01:05:13,309
okay this should be on its way to 3 700

1273
01:05:22,609 --> 01:05:19,430
starting to Arc over a little bit that

1274
01:05:25,069 --> 01:05:22,619
might be pretty close to 3 700 feet

1275
01:05:30,410 --> 01:05:25,079
there's an event there's its back up to

1276
01:05:30,420 --> 01:05:34,490
oh is that the main Maybe

1277
01:05:38,930 --> 01:05:36,650
oh that that does look like that's the

1278
01:05:46,910 --> 01:05:38,940
main the main is supposed to come out at

1279
01:05:51,650 --> 01:05:49,250
and then some you can probably see that

1280
01:05:53,809 --> 01:05:51,660
smoke below it that's actually tracking

1281
01:05:58,190 --> 01:05:53,819
smoke that's in the motor so you can

1282
01:06:00,289 --> 01:05:58,200
visually Spot It under recovery

1283
01:06:02,030 --> 01:06:00,299
and the Sea it just burned itself out so

1284
01:06:04,549 --> 01:06:02,040
it will burn for a period of duration so

1285
01:06:07,490 --> 01:06:04,559
you can see it while it's up in the air

1286
01:06:11,030 --> 01:06:07,500
but the main is out at apogee so that's

1287
01:06:12,470 --> 01:06:11,040
going for the K parachute duration

1288
01:06:42,589 --> 01:06:12,480
probably it's one of the Gnar

1289
01:06:42,599 --> 01:06:46,370
oh

1290
01:06:46,380 --> 01:06:51,170
so still hanging out up there

1291
01:06:51,180 --> 01:07:13,910
it will be out in the field

1292
01:07:19,190 --> 01:07:15,890
so it's still coming down under its main

1293
01:07:20,870 --> 01:07:19,200
parachute so you'll see it like I think

1294
01:07:23,270 --> 01:07:20,880
it was 800 feet you'll see probably a

1295
01:07:24,950 --> 01:07:23,280
smoke piece come out and that will be

1296
01:07:27,289 --> 01:07:24,960
where the parachute was actually

1297
01:07:29,029 --> 01:07:27,299
supposed to come out for the main

1298
01:07:30,410 --> 01:07:29,039
that's okay you'd rather have it out

1299
01:07:32,329 --> 01:07:30,420
than not out

1300
01:08:00,589 --> 01:07:32,339
we've learned from some of the scale and

1301
01:08:03,770 --> 01:08:02,510
okay so that one is just about to touch

1302
01:08:05,990 --> 01:08:03,780
down

1303
01:08:07,910 --> 01:08:06,000
so I will continue on as that one is

1304
01:08:10,190 --> 01:08:07,920
just about

1305
01:08:13,430 --> 01:08:10,200
it's right at the tree line so this is

1306
01:08:16,550 --> 01:08:13,440
going to be on pad number 21 the team

1307
01:08:18,829 --> 01:08:16,560
name is called space Jacks uh the school

1308
01:08:20,510 --> 01:08:18,839
is Northern Arizona University out of

1309
01:08:22,550 --> 01:08:20,520
Flagstaff Arizona

1310
01:08:25,669 --> 01:08:22,560
the name of the rocket is called lofty

1311
01:08:27,890 --> 01:08:25,679
aspirations it's a almost 23 pound

1312
01:08:29,329 --> 01:08:27,900
rocket four inch in diameter eight and a

1313
01:08:31,490 --> 01:08:29,339
half feet tall

1314
01:08:34,849 --> 01:08:31,500
so for their science and experiment

1315
01:08:37,550 --> 01:08:34,859
information all they wrote down was NASA

1316
01:08:41,110 --> 01:08:37,560
usli challenge they kept it short and

1317
01:08:44,510 --> 01:08:41,120
sweet it is flying on an Aerotek k1100

1318
01:08:45,530 --> 01:08:44,520
Blue Thunder it should go about 5 000

1319
01:08:48,950 --> 01:08:45,540
feet

1320
01:08:50,809 --> 01:08:48,960
and the main is set for 600 so for this

1321
01:08:52,789 --> 01:08:50,819
team this is the first time competing

1322
01:08:55,550 --> 01:08:52,799
for them either in a long time or ever

1323
01:08:59,630 --> 01:08:55,560
they have an elongated payload package

1324
01:09:02,150 --> 01:08:59,640
with two gimbaling passive systems

1325
01:09:04,189 --> 01:09:02,160
this team also did paint the rocket this

1326
01:09:05,749 --> 01:09:04,199
end up on it so they just could remind

1327
01:09:08,209 --> 01:09:05,759
themselves which way is the correct

1328
01:09:09,769 --> 01:09:08,219
orientation of the rocket

1329
01:09:11,570 --> 01:09:09,779
um and then within the past couple of

1330
01:09:13,490 --> 01:09:11,580
days they wanted to point or paint on

1331
01:09:15,229 --> 01:09:13,500
there this end down and then they also

1332
01:09:17,510 --> 01:09:15,239
painted on their lofty aspirations they

1333
01:09:19,729 --> 01:09:17,520
said it earned a name the team also

1334
01:09:21,349 --> 01:09:19,739
struggled with one of their management I

1335
01:09:23,390 --> 01:09:21,359
guess skills they're supposed to order

1336
01:09:25,309 --> 01:09:23,400
pizza for club meetings but they never

1337
01:09:26,689 --> 01:09:25,319
got around to doing it so hopefully

1338
01:09:29,090 --> 01:09:26,699
they'll remember to order pizza for

1339
01:09:31,789 --> 01:09:29,100
their next meet okay continuing on to

1340
01:09:33,590 --> 01:09:31,799
the launch on pad number 21 we are going

1341
01:09:35,269 --> 01:09:33,600
to launch lofty aspirations we have a

1342
01:09:39,050 --> 01:09:35,279
clear sky clear range we're going to

1343
01:09:45,229 --> 01:09:39,060
launch in five four three two one

1344
01:09:49,610 --> 01:09:47,630
k1100 those are good Motors those Motors

1345
01:09:52,490 --> 01:09:49,620
uh made by Aerotek have been around for

1346
01:09:52,500 --> 01:09:56,630
still under I can still see it

1347
01:09:56,640 --> 01:09:59,630
there is an event

1348
01:10:04,130 --> 01:10:01,850
and then that's the back up to the

1349
01:10:06,590 --> 01:10:04,140
apogee event which is good it's a good

1350
01:10:08,870 --> 01:10:06,600
sign so the main is not out so this

1351
01:10:13,790 --> 01:10:08,880
one's coming down at a quicker rate

1352
01:10:18,950 --> 01:10:15,590
I don't think this rocket probably went

1353
01:10:22,130 --> 01:10:18,960
5 000 feet would be would be my guess

1354
01:10:24,410 --> 01:10:22,140
that three thousand thirty five hundred

1355
01:10:26,750 --> 01:10:24,420
we're coming in about two thousand feet

1356
01:10:30,410 --> 01:10:26,760
right now

1357
01:10:32,630 --> 01:10:30,420
probably 1500 right around a thousand

1358
01:10:34,430 --> 01:10:32,640
and there's your 600.

1359
01:10:35,630 --> 01:10:34,440
all right and then there's our backup to

1360
01:10:39,169 --> 01:10:35,640
the main

1361
01:10:41,390 --> 01:10:39,179
so everything looks good on that one

1362
01:11:16,010 --> 01:10:41,400
not such lofty aspirations I'm still

1363
01:11:21,470 --> 01:11:18,110
okay so now we're going to pad number

1364
01:11:23,510 --> 01:11:21,480
22. this is Portland rocketry out of

1365
01:11:26,510 --> 01:11:23,520
Portland Oregon the name of this rocket

1366
01:11:27,490 --> 01:11:26,520
is Asgard 2.0 14 pounds four inch in

1367
01:11:31,910 --> 01:11:27,500
diameter

1368
01:11:34,490 --> 01:11:31,920
7.65 feet it is flying on a j 449 Blue

1369
01:11:36,910 --> 01:11:34,500
Streak cesaroni motor should go about 4

1370
01:11:40,130 --> 01:11:36,920
100 feet on the experiment information

1371
01:11:43,130 --> 01:11:40,140
it has an air brake system the Aero

1372
01:11:44,570 --> 01:11:43,140
brake system autonomously deploys three

1373
01:11:48,470 --> 01:11:44,580
fins

1374
01:11:50,270 --> 01:11:48,480
uh dynamically change the drag

1375
01:11:51,830 --> 01:11:50,280
wait there's a lot of information here

1376
01:11:53,930 --> 01:11:51,840
dynamically change the drag of the

1377
01:11:55,490 --> 01:11:53,940
rocket during flight this makes it so

1378
01:11:58,550 --> 01:11:55,500
the rocket can reach the predicted

1379
01:12:02,270 --> 01:11:58,560
height more accurately the main is set

1380
01:12:04,790 --> 01:12:02,280
for 500 feet and this team this is their

1381
01:12:06,050 --> 01:12:04,800
second time being here ever

1382
01:12:08,450 --> 01:12:06,060
um and with the name of the rocket

1383
01:12:10,610 --> 01:12:08,460
Asgard number two it goes to Greek

1384
01:12:11,689 --> 01:12:10,620
mythology which represents the city of

1385
01:12:13,910 --> 01:12:11,699
the Gods

1386
01:12:15,950 --> 01:12:13,920
I also thought was unique with this team

1387
01:12:18,110 --> 01:12:15,960
it's a team of six members

1388
01:12:19,850 --> 01:12:18,120
they did not have a chance to paint it

1389
01:12:21,590 --> 01:12:19,860
in time but they decorated it I think

1390
01:12:23,209 --> 01:12:21,600
since Thursday they put a lot of glitter

1391
01:12:25,550 --> 01:12:23,219
and so glitter is everywhere folks so

1392
01:12:27,229 --> 01:12:25,560
just double check your shirts I thought

1393
01:12:29,330 --> 01:12:27,239
was unique with this team as they also

1394
01:12:31,550 --> 01:12:29,340
had a rocket playlist when they would

1395
01:12:33,709 --> 01:12:31,560
get together and do the working on the

1396
01:12:35,270 --> 01:12:33,719
project some of the songs they shared

1397
01:12:38,450 --> 01:12:35,280
with me they like to play the Rick Roll

1398
01:12:41,870 --> 01:12:38,460
song the Spider-Man theme song Felice

1399
01:12:44,030 --> 01:12:41,880
Navidad Pokeman theme song Rocket Man Of

1400
01:12:46,370 --> 01:12:44,040
course Ain't No Mountain High Enough so

1401
01:12:48,470 --> 01:12:46,380
quite a diverse playlist when they're in

1402
01:12:51,770 --> 01:12:48,480
crunch time mode though they do like to

1403
01:12:52,850 --> 01:12:51,780
play the Mario gamer music song so if

1404
01:12:54,830 --> 01:12:52,860
you want to check out their Spotify

1405
01:12:59,149 --> 01:12:54,840
playlist I'd go check out with Portland

1406
01:13:00,770 --> 01:12:59,159
rocketry okay on pad number 22 we have a

1407
01:13:04,550 --> 01:13:00,780
clear sky we have a clear range we're

1408
01:13:09,050 --> 01:13:04,560
going to launch in five four three two

1409
01:13:23,030 --> 01:13:12,050
foreign so there should be an air brake

1410
01:13:30,110 --> 01:13:26,149
okay it was told there's an event

1411
01:13:30,120 --> 01:13:45,890
oh yeah there it is

1412
01:14:18,320 --> 01:13:48,530
and the main on this one is set for 550

1413
01:14:22,310 --> 01:14:20,390
[Applause]

1414
01:14:40,130 --> 01:14:22,320
okay and then there's the main on that

1415
01:14:46,430 --> 01:14:42,229
okay so now we're going to the 500 foot

1416
01:14:49,970 --> 01:14:48,290
okay so we're going out to the far back

1417
01:14:52,189 --> 01:14:49,980
pads furthest to the left is where we'll

1418
01:14:55,189 --> 01:14:52,199
start we'll start on pad number 41 this

1419
01:14:57,229 --> 01:14:55,199
is Owl rocketry at a Temple University

1420
01:15:00,169 --> 01:14:57,239
at a Philadelphia Pennsylvania the name

1421
01:15:02,990 --> 01:15:00,179
of this rocket is Balboa it doesn't have

1422
01:15:04,790 --> 01:15:03,000
a weight listed so it's it doesn't want

1423
01:15:06,310 --> 01:15:04,800
to share its weight it's five and a half

1424
01:15:10,850 --> 01:15:06,320
inch diameter

1425
01:15:13,990 --> 01:15:10,860
9.4 feet tall it is flying on an L 1150

1426
01:15:17,870 --> 01:15:14,000
Aerotech Redline it should go

1427
01:15:20,390 --> 01:15:17,880
4935 feet the main is set for

1428
01:15:23,270 --> 01:15:20,400
600 feet this is their first time being

1429
01:15:25,189 --> 01:15:23,280
here they are using a secondary pay uh

1430
01:15:27,229 --> 01:15:25,199
payload on this rocket I thought it was

1431
01:15:29,689 --> 01:15:27,239
also a unique story on this team their

1432
01:15:33,110 --> 01:15:29,699
Mentor is also their team member and was

1433
01:15:36,110 --> 01:15:33,120
also a competitor in the SLI division

1434
01:15:38,270 --> 01:15:36,120
when she was in high school the team is

1435
01:15:41,030 --> 01:15:38,280
made up of eight members they also had a

1436
01:15:42,950 --> 01:15:41,040
weird way of the key lock switch so like

1437
01:15:45,709 --> 01:15:42,960
I think of a normal house key they put

1438
01:15:47,630 --> 01:15:45,719
the key in there broke the key off but

1439
01:15:49,669 --> 01:15:47,640
then they will use a screwdriver to turn

1440
01:15:50,810 --> 01:15:49,679
the electronics on and off so that is a

1441
01:15:53,330 --> 01:15:50,820
unique

1442
01:15:56,750 --> 01:15:53,340
Ingenuity way to approach the switch

1443
01:15:59,270 --> 01:15:56,760
system on pad number 41 we have Temple

1444
01:16:00,530 --> 01:15:59,280
University we have a clear sky we have a

1445
01:16:12,590 --> 01:16:00,540
clear range we're going to launch in

1446
01:16:17,990 --> 01:16:15,229
burn the igniter on that one so what

1447
01:16:20,990 --> 01:16:18,000
happens is is the igniter lit but it did

1448
01:16:25,669 --> 01:16:21,000
not give enough energy to light the

1449
01:16:30,530 --> 01:16:27,649
so we'll come back and recycle that one

1450
01:16:33,350 --> 01:16:30,540
on pad 42 we have the University of

1451
01:16:35,390 --> 01:16:33,360
Alabama Tuscaloosa

1452
01:16:37,550 --> 01:16:35,400
well I guess they're kind of excited

1453
01:16:40,390 --> 01:16:37,560
they're out of Tuscaloosa Alabama the

1454
01:16:42,470 --> 01:16:40,400
name of this rocket is Prometheus

1455
01:16:46,250 --> 01:16:42,480
34.8 pounds four and a half inch

1456
01:16:49,430 --> 01:16:46,260
diameter 8.33 feet tall this team has a

1457
01:16:52,130 --> 01:16:49,440
CO2 deployment system 23 grams and the

1458
01:16:54,470 --> 01:16:52,140
main 35 is back up this is the only team

1459
01:16:56,570 --> 01:16:54,480
that I'm aware of that is also using CO2

1460
01:16:58,610 --> 01:16:56,580
deployment too

1461
01:17:00,470 --> 01:16:58,620
so their experiment information upon

1462
01:17:02,510 --> 01:17:00,480
Landing that payload Bay deploys a

1463
01:17:04,490 --> 01:17:02,520
vertical camera using a pulley system

1464
01:17:07,669 --> 01:17:04,500
this camera operates using radio

1465
01:17:10,729 --> 01:17:07,679
frequency commands relayed by NASA

1466
01:17:14,689 --> 01:17:10,739
this rocket is also flying on an

1467
01:17:16,850 --> 01:17:14,699
Aerotech l1150 Redline it should go 5

1468
01:17:18,830 --> 01:17:16,860
000 feet I think their payload is called

1469
01:17:20,510 --> 01:17:18,840
fear the Ripper and I think they're

1470
01:17:23,149 --> 01:17:20,520
going for the 3D printed award I saw a

1471
01:17:25,130 --> 01:17:23,159
lot of 3D printed stuff on there this

1472
01:17:28,310 --> 01:17:25,140
also this team rolls deep they got 35

1473
01:17:29,750 --> 01:17:28,320
members on their team they also um we

1474
01:17:32,090 --> 01:17:29,760
also want to thank all of our sponsors

1475
01:17:34,250 --> 01:17:32,100
we're grateful to have you here and

1476
01:17:35,990 --> 01:17:34,260
support um the schools and programs and

1477
01:17:38,090 --> 01:17:36,000
dreams but I will say this team did

1478
01:17:41,090 --> 01:17:38,100
secure a very unique sponsorship from

1479
01:17:43,669 --> 01:17:41,100
Whataburger I thought that was different

1480
01:17:45,470 --> 01:17:43,679
um something about 50 Burgers so I want

1481
01:17:46,850 --> 01:17:45,480
to get one of those 50 Burgers too so

1482
01:17:50,570 --> 01:17:46,860
just keep that in mind right here at the

1483
01:17:53,209 --> 01:17:50,580
lco desk okay pad 42 clear sky clear

1484
01:17:57,410 --> 01:17:53,219
range we're going to launch in five four

1485
01:18:24,010 --> 01:17:57,420
three two one ignition

1486
01:18:24,020 --> 01:18:29,750
than never

1487
01:18:33,530 --> 01:18:31,669
well I guess that's CO2 I don't know

1488
01:18:37,490 --> 01:18:33,540
what's going on there but

1489
01:19:00,770 --> 01:18:37,500
hopefully the vertical camera system

1490
01:19:00,780 --> 01:19:15,950
oh there's the main okay

1491
01:19:15,960 --> 01:19:24,470
hmm I don't know not sure on that one

1492
01:19:32,630 --> 01:19:29,630
okay Pat yep pad 43 so pad 43 this is

1493
01:19:36,950 --> 01:19:32,640
uh Wu rocketry out of Washington

1494
01:19:38,689 --> 01:19:36,960
University in St Louis out of St Louis

1495
01:19:40,850 --> 01:19:38,699
oh they got their little chant going

1496
01:19:43,490 --> 01:19:40,860
there too I don't know what's going on

1497
01:19:46,370 --> 01:19:43,500
over there calm down everyone the name

1498
01:19:48,850 --> 01:19:46,380
of this rocket is uh benkin one I

1499
01:19:53,450 --> 01:19:48,860
believe it's 41 pounds

1500
01:19:55,970 --> 01:19:53,460
6.17 inch diameter 9.25 feet tall this

1501
01:19:57,590 --> 01:19:55,980
rocket does says besides a sick paint

1502
01:20:00,290 --> 01:19:57,600
job I didn't see I didn't this is what

1503
01:20:03,169 --> 01:20:00,300
it says I'm reading it this rocket has a

1504
01:20:06,229 --> 01:20:03,179
3D printed airfoil fin shells and two

1505
01:20:08,390 --> 01:20:06,239
onboard cameras to record flights their

1506
01:20:10,250 --> 01:20:08,400
experiment info information is called

1507
01:20:12,050 --> 01:20:10,260
the vision so we'll start of many

1508
01:20:15,470 --> 01:20:12,060
acronyms you'll hear over the day today

1509
01:20:18,050 --> 01:20:15,480
this is the virtual interactive snapshot

1510
01:20:22,070 --> 01:20:18,060
in operational environment

1511
01:20:25,070 --> 01:20:22,080
is an SDR aprs based on a scissor lift

1512
01:20:26,689 --> 01:20:25,080
ground deployment Imaging system I hope

1513
01:20:29,590 --> 01:20:26,699
you all got that there's a test later

1514
01:20:32,090 --> 01:20:29,600
today on it it is flying on an Aerotech

1515
01:20:34,790 --> 01:20:32,100
l1390 Mojave green

1516
01:20:36,169 --> 01:20:34,800
should go about 4 600 feet

1517
01:20:38,149 --> 01:20:36,179
um I thought was unique with this team

1518
01:20:40,310 --> 01:20:38,159
is they one of these sub teams made

1519
01:20:42,530 --> 01:20:40,320
their own special sunglasses I think

1520
01:20:44,390 --> 01:20:42,540
they're probably wearing them right now

1521
01:20:46,010 --> 01:20:44,400
the other thing they mentioned they have

1522
01:20:47,630 --> 01:20:46,020
a rack and pinion system in there I'm

1523
01:20:49,970 --> 01:20:47,640
like I thought that goes in a car but

1524
01:20:51,950 --> 01:20:49,980
they put it in the rocket

1525
01:20:53,810 --> 01:20:51,960
um they also have a they have a nose

1526
01:20:56,689 --> 01:20:53,820
cone that has an elliptical finish it's

1527
01:20:58,970 --> 01:20:56,699
not to a point and then the Leading Edge

1528
01:21:00,709 --> 01:20:58,980
to the fins are 3D printed this team

1529
01:21:04,430 --> 01:21:00,719
also rolls pretty deep they got 40 team

1530
01:21:06,890 --> 01:21:04,440
members total 25 of them 25 of them are

1531
01:21:09,229 --> 01:21:06,900
here the team also came up with their

1532
01:21:12,110 --> 01:21:09,239
own logo they have a pretty high team

1533
01:21:14,330 --> 01:21:12,120
morale and I guess one of their team

1534
01:21:16,729 --> 01:21:14,340
members Brendan doesn't like to sleep a

1535
01:21:18,709 --> 01:21:16,739
lot I guess this likes to sleep while

1536
01:21:20,030 --> 01:21:18,719
showering there's a story there you're

1537
01:21:22,370 --> 01:21:20,040
going to have to go talk to Brendan on

1538
01:21:24,410 --> 01:21:22,380
that one okay on pad 43 we're gonna

1539
01:21:26,090 --> 01:21:24,420
we're gonna launch this rocket in the

1540
01:21:29,990 --> 01:21:26,100
clear sky we have a clear range we're

1541
01:21:37,610 --> 01:21:30,000
gonna launch in five four three two one

1542
01:21:42,890 --> 01:21:40,850
nice Mojave green that should go 4 600

1543
01:21:44,570 --> 01:21:42,900
feet

1544
01:21:49,729 --> 01:21:44,580
that might do it

1545
01:21:49,739 --> 01:21:54,169
there is an event there's its back up

1546
01:21:54,179 --> 01:22:23,570
and the main is set for 600 feet

1547
01:22:29,209 --> 01:22:26,750
it's probably 1500 feet

1548
01:22:31,790 --> 01:22:29,219
close to a thousand feet now so we

1549
01:22:37,430 --> 01:22:31,800
should see it about 600 feet

1550
01:22:46,370 --> 01:22:41,149
it's a low 600 feet oh there we go

1551
01:22:49,490 --> 01:22:48,169
Brandon I hope you're awake for this do

1552
01:22:55,490 --> 01:22:49,500
you see it

1553
01:22:55,500 --> 01:23:01,550
okay we are going to continue on

1554
01:23:01,560 --> 01:23:11,510
now we're going to

1555
01:23:16,850 --> 01:23:14,570
okay we're going to pad 60. the name of

1556
01:23:18,950 --> 01:23:16,860
this rocket is the advanced rocketry

1557
01:23:21,649 --> 01:23:18,960
Club out of the University of North

1558
01:23:24,169 --> 01:23:21,659
Dakota Grand Forks North Dakota

1559
01:23:25,610 --> 01:23:24,179
the name of this rocket is Cosmo so

1560
01:23:28,130 --> 01:23:25,620
you're going to probably hear some other

1561
01:23:29,590 --> 01:23:28,140
teams with the cosmos but this one is

1562
01:23:32,709 --> 01:23:29,600
Cosmo

1563
01:23:35,570 --> 01:23:32,719
42.3 pounds six inch diameter

1564
01:23:36,850 --> 01:23:35,580
8.67 feet tall it is flying on an

1565
01:23:39,669 --> 01:23:36,860
Aerotech

1566
01:23:45,350 --> 01:23:39,679
l1420 Redline

1567
01:23:49,729 --> 01:23:47,830
looks maybe like

1568
01:23:51,050 --> 01:23:49,739
5600 feet

1569
01:23:54,830 --> 01:23:51,060
I think that's what I'm reading here

1570
01:23:59,870 --> 01:23:56,450
um and then the name of this payload is

1571
01:24:02,209 --> 01:23:59,880
called obscura the whole um

1572
01:24:04,189 --> 01:24:02,219
their their whole payload is 3D printed

1573
01:24:06,890 --> 01:24:04,199
and it found out it weighs six kilograms

1574
01:24:08,330 --> 01:24:06,900
so it is a very heavy 3D printed payload

1575
01:24:09,350 --> 01:24:08,340
and the whole payload is in the nose

1576
01:24:11,570 --> 01:24:09,360
cone

1577
01:24:14,930 --> 01:24:11,580
and they painted they called it Cosmo

1578
01:24:16,970 --> 01:24:14,940
and painted it in that fashion but not

1579
01:24:18,890 --> 01:24:16,980
Cosmos because Ohio State University

1580
01:24:21,709 --> 01:24:18,900
called it that rocket so don't get those

1581
01:24:23,209 --> 01:24:21,719
mixed up the team did vote on this paint

1582
01:24:24,709 --> 01:24:23,219
job too so I guess with a lot of

1583
01:24:27,590 --> 01:24:24,719
deliberation that's what they settled on

1584
01:24:29,870 --> 01:24:27,600
for the paint jobs pad 60. we have a

1585
01:24:32,570 --> 01:24:29,880
clear sky we have a clear range we're

1586
01:24:37,390 --> 01:24:32,580
going to launch this one in five four

1587
01:24:39,410 --> 01:24:37,400
three two one ignition

1588
01:24:46,130 --> 01:24:39,420
[Music]

1589
01:24:49,610 --> 01:24:47,930
the crowd seem to be pretty impressed

1590
01:24:56,270 --> 01:24:49,620
with that one that's what those red

1591
01:25:01,490 --> 01:24:58,310
there's an event there's it's back up to

1592
01:25:03,649 --> 01:25:01,500
the main or the apogee

1593
01:25:10,970 --> 01:25:03,659
we could hear it I'd suggest maybe more

1594
01:25:10,980 --> 01:25:51,649
the mean on this one is set for 700 feet

1595
01:25:57,290 --> 01:25:54,110
oh there it is okay it should be

1596
01:25:59,330 --> 01:25:57,300
we should be pretty close to 700 now

1597
01:26:01,970 --> 01:25:59,340
there it is

1598
01:26:06,050 --> 01:26:01,980
now the parachute needs to open there it

1599
01:26:14,330 --> 01:26:08,390
okay we'll see if obscura can do its

1600
01:26:18,830 --> 01:26:16,790
so continuing on to pad number 61 that's

1601
01:26:21,950 --> 01:26:18,840
the yellow and blue rocket

1602
01:26:23,450 --> 01:26:21,960
this is the rocket box is what it looks

1603
01:26:26,270 --> 01:26:23,460
like it says from the University of

1604
01:26:30,229 --> 01:26:26,280
Tennessee in Chattanooga Tennessee

1605
01:26:33,770 --> 01:26:30,239
the name of this rocket is

1606
01:26:36,050 --> 01:26:33,780
this is a sick parvis Magna

1607
01:26:40,850 --> 01:26:36,060
greatness comes from Small Beginnings

1608
01:26:43,790 --> 01:26:40,860
okay the 25.8 pound rocket 5.15 inch

1609
01:26:47,530 --> 01:26:43,800
diameter six feet eight inches tall

1610
01:26:50,390 --> 01:26:47,540
this is flying on a CTI

1611
01:26:51,649 --> 01:26:50,400
k1440 white thunder so this is going to

1612
01:26:54,950 --> 01:26:51,659
be another one of those faster taking

1613
01:26:58,970 --> 01:26:54,960
off Motors it should go about 5 000 feet

1614
01:27:03,709 --> 01:26:58,980
I did notice this team is a a team of 10

1615
01:27:05,570 --> 01:27:03,719
team of 10 usually a rocket is no longer

1616
01:27:08,149 --> 01:27:05,580
painted they have to earn the paint job

1617
01:27:11,450 --> 01:27:08,159
but this one said it earned its paint

1618
01:27:13,550 --> 01:27:11,460
job but they put it in a wrap so I'm a

1619
01:27:16,310 --> 01:27:13,560
little confused and their approach to

1620
01:27:17,990 --> 01:27:16,320
finish and the payload isn't an acrylic

1621
01:27:21,169 --> 01:27:18,000
casing so that's pretty neat to see that

1622
01:27:23,930 --> 01:27:21,179
on pad number 61.

1623
01:27:28,010 --> 01:27:23,940
clear sky clear range we're going to

1624
01:27:31,070 --> 01:27:28,020
launch in five four three two one

1625
01:27:31,080 --> 01:27:39,950
that's the white Thunder for you

1626
01:27:44,390 --> 01:27:41,810
so that one's supposed to be at 5 000

1627
01:27:48,709 --> 01:27:44,400
feet I might do that

1628
01:27:54,590 --> 01:27:50,330
there's an event

1629
01:27:54,600 --> 01:28:03,350
then the main is set for 700 feet

1630
01:28:21,110 --> 01:28:05,450
still a few thousand feet up I can still

1631
01:28:27,290 --> 01:28:25,010
okay we're probably about 1500 feet out

1632
01:28:29,629 --> 01:28:27,300
this one main is set for 700 probably a

1633
01:28:32,090 --> 01:28:29,639
thousand feet right now should have an

1634
01:28:34,370 --> 01:28:32,100
event pretty soon there it is

1635
01:28:37,729 --> 01:28:34,380
parachute needs to open though that's

1636
01:28:41,090 --> 01:28:37,739
whoa little delay there trying to keep

1637
01:28:49,010 --> 01:28:42,530
all right

1638
01:28:54,649 --> 01:28:51,890
okay on pad 62

1639
01:28:57,530 --> 01:28:54,659
this is Society of Aeronautics and

1640
01:28:59,810 --> 01:28:57,540
rocketry University of South Florida and

1641
01:29:01,270 --> 01:28:59,820
Tampa Florida name of this rocket is

1642
01:29:06,410 --> 01:29:01,280
Bullseye

1643
01:29:09,770 --> 01:29:06,420
21.8 pounds 4.02 inch diameter 100 and

1644
01:29:12,169 --> 01:29:09,780
okay the length says 121 feet tall I

1645
01:29:14,330 --> 01:29:12,179
don't think it's 121 feet tall I'm just

1646
01:29:17,990 --> 01:29:14,340
reading the flight card

1647
01:29:19,910 --> 01:29:18,000
um this is flying on a k

1648
01:29:23,570 --> 01:29:19,920
wait a minute so

1649
01:29:24,950 --> 01:29:23,580
oh this is flying on a k780 maybe 4500

1650
01:29:26,750 --> 01:29:24,960
feet

1651
01:29:28,669 --> 01:29:26,760
and with this team I believe this might

1652
01:29:30,470 --> 01:29:28,679
be their first time here

1653
01:29:32,750 --> 01:29:30,480
their payload oh yeah I remember looking

1654
01:29:34,790 --> 01:29:32,760
at their payload they had a lot of

1655
01:29:37,070 --> 01:29:34,800
cables in it or repaired originate a lot

1656
01:29:40,129 --> 01:29:37,080
of cables they also used

1657
01:29:42,950 --> 01:29:40,139
get for the software encoding work the

1658
01:29:45,649 --> 01:29:42,960
payload can read radio signals based on

1659
01:29:47,870 --> 01:29:45,659
how the team set up the Arduino it was a

1660
01:29:50,510 --> 01:29:47,880
theory they tested and claimed it works

1661
01:29:52,610 --> 01:29:50,520
it does have elliptical fins and they do

1662
01:29:55,490 --> 01:29:52,620
have a scientific reasoning for using it

1663
01:29:56,510 --> 01:29:55,500
you'll have to check in with them on why

1664
01:29:58,370 --> 01:29:56,520
um

1665
01:30:01,610 --> 01:29:58,380
okay I think that's all the info so I'm

1666
01:30:03,470 --> 01:30:01,620
pad 62 we will watch Bullseye we have a

1667
01:30:06,770 --> 01:30:03,480
clear sky we have a clear range we're

1668
01:30:08,800 --> 01:30:06,780
going to launch in five four three two

1669
01:30:11,229 --> 01:30:08,810
one ignition

1670
01:30:15,290 --> 01:30:11,239
[Music]

1671
01:30:19,490 --> 01:30:17,689
a little whistle at the end of it

1672
01:30:22,790 --> 01:30:19,500
maybe that's why they use the elliptical

1673
01:30:27,890 --> 01:30:24,590
starting to Arc over

1674
01:30:32,209 --> 01:30:27,900
need the main at 600 feet

1675
01:30:34,550 --> 01:30:32,219
oh it's not looking good though

1676
01:30:41,030 --> 01:30:34,560
oh boy

1677
01:30:45,290 --> 01:30:42,709
so that one is now one with the Earth

1678
01:31:07,910 --> 01:30:45,300
unfortunately hopefully we can go find

1679
01:31:13,790 --> 01:31:11,930
okay on pad 63 this is Rogue Aerospace

1680
01:31:16,970 --> 01:31:13,800
New York University out of Brooklyn New

1681
01:31:19,070 --> 01:31:16,980
York the name of this rocket is Big Bird

1682
01:31:21,169 --> 01:31:19,080
so when Big Bert doesn't have a weight

1683
01:31:24,110 --> 01:31:21,179
doesn't have a diameter doesn't have a

1684
01:31:26,030 --> 01:31:24,120
length so it is unknown on all fronts

1685
01:31:27,830 --> 01:31:26,040
doesn't have a motor listed but I think

1686
01:31:31,910 --> 01:31:27,840
I know what the motor is it should be a

1687
01:31:32,689 --> 01:31:31,920
accessory l1050 it should go about 5000

1688
01:31:34,669 --> 01:31:32,699
feet

1689
01:31:37,129 --> 01:31:34,679
on the experiment information it's

1690
01:31:39,229 --> 01:31:37,139
called Little Bird this payload will

1691
01:31:43,129 --> 01:31:39,239
deploy with the launch vehicle recovery

1692
01:31:46,250 --> 01:31:43,139
system staying connected shot cord after

1693
01:31:48,709 --> 01:31:46,260
landing additionally with this team they

1694
01:31:50,689 --> 01:31:48,719
said it has a self-writing payload but

1695
01:31:52,070 --> 01:31:50,699
then they also said theoretically

1696
01:31:53,330 --> 01:31:52,080
hope it's a little better than

1697
01:31:55,729 --> 01:31:53,340
theoretically

1698
01:31:57,410 --> 01:31:55,739
I also did notice they have a 3D printed

1699
01:31:59,930 --> 01:31:57,420
shock plate don't know what that means

1700
01:32:02,090 --> 01:31:59,940
but it has one of those and this team

1701
01:32:04,090 --> 01:32:02,100
also has I thought pretty unique

1702
01:32:06,830 --> 01:32:04,100
matching uniforms in those kind of like

1703
01:32:08,629 --> 01:32:06,840
mechanic kind of Dickie style worker

1704
01:32:11,270 --> 01:32:08,639
shirts you have to go check out their uh

1705
01:32:13,669 --> 01:32:11,280
their style points there they did paint

1706
01:32:15,050 --> 01:32:13,679
the rocket in school colors they also

1707
01:32:19,550 --> 01:32:15,060
did

1708
01:32:22,189 --> 01:32:19,560
also painted the rabbit over the moon

1709
01:32:24,950 --> 01:32:22,199
and this year does Mark the year of the

1710
01:32:28,370 --> 01:32:24,960
rabbit which signifies good luck pretty

1711
01:32:30,530 --> 01:32:28,380
cool this team is have 30 members and 10

1712
01:32:35,450 --> 01:32:30,540
of them are here today

1713
01:32:40,010 --> 01:32:38,149
up being told there's a plane so if you

1714
01:32:42,110 --> 01:32:40,020
look West so over there you can see a

1715
01:32:44,209 --> 01:32:42,120
plane flying outbound

1716
01:32:45,890 --> 01:32:44,219
we don't want to fly when we see them

1717
01:33:16,729 --> 01:32:45,900
let them be out of the bound and then

1718
01:33:21,229 --> 01:33:19,490
we're still on hold we don't know what

1719
01:33:23,149 --> 01:33:21,239
the pile is doing the pilot maybe

1720
01:33:24,649 --> 01:33:23,159
doesn't know what it's doing just gonna

1721
01:33:26,209 --> 01:33:24,659
make sure the plane is clear and

1722
01:34:08,270 --> 01:33:26,219
outbound not coming our way or flying

1723
01:34:08,280 --> 01:34:14,149
we're gonna hold we see a

1724
01:34:19,669 --> 01:34:17,030
so I saw bird I saw a plane so shouldn't

1725
01:34:21,590 --> 01:34:19,679
Superman come in at any point

1726
01:34:23,750 --> 01:34:21,600
was that Batman I'm getting my

1727
01:34:25,129 --> 01:34:23,760
okay my superheroes all mixed up we're

1728
01:34:27,050 --> 01:34:25,139
just we're on a hold for just a moment

1729
01:35:08,810 --> 01:34:27,060
as the planes clear out of our viewing

1730
01:35:13,790 --> 01:35:11,209
okay planes are clear so now we can go

1731
01:35:17,090 --> 01:35:13,800
back to New York University with big

1732
01:35:19,729 --> 01:35:17,100
Burton little bird pad 63. we have a

1733
01:35:21,229 --> 01:35:19,739
clear sky we have a clear range planes

1734
01:35:26,450 --> 01:35:21,239
are now outbound we're gonna launch in

1735
01:35:33,530 --> 01:35:26,460
five four three two one ignition

1736
01:35:38,330 --> 01:35:35,930
nice boost on that one

1737
01:35:41,750 --> 01:35:38,340
supposed to go 5 000 feet

1738
01:35:41,760 --> 01:35:46,610
I'm hearing some Maybe not maybe close

1739
01:35:46,620 --> 01:35:56,629
okay there's an event

1740
01:35:56,639 --> 01:36:05,629
okay so it is under drug right now

1741
01:36:10,790 --> 01:36:08,209
so the mainly did not list on paper but

1742
01:36:17,330 --> 01:36:10,800
probably somewhere in that between 500

1743
01:36:39,169 --> 01:36:19,790
yep so we're still about a couple

1744
01:36:46,010 --> 01:36:42,110
so we're probably a thousand feet out

1745
01:36:57,530 --> 01:36:47,470
probably

1746
01:37:00,530 --> 01:36:57,540
for 500 feet oh

1747
01:37:05,750 --> 01:37:00,540
it's booster went right into the pair of

1748
01:37:05,760 --> 01:37:11,149
there's a story on that one

1749
01:37:11,159 --> 01:37:27,050
that rocket experienced all the emotions

1750
01:37:32,570 --> 01:37:30,590
okay on pad number 80. we have

1751
01:37:34,610 --> 01:37:32,580
UMass rocket team this is University of

1752
01:37:36,709 --> 01:37:34,620
Massachusetts Amherst and Amherst

1753
01:37:40,090 --> 01:37:36,719
Massachusetts name of this rocket is

1754
01:37:44,030 --> 01:37:40,100
Nemesis 46.7 pounds six inch diameter

1755
01:37:47,930 --> 01:37:44,040
8.9 feet tall does have a 3D printed

1756
01:37:51,530 --> 01:37:47,940
nose cone in booster also has a 3D

1757
01:37:53,810 --> 01:37:51,540
printed metal bulkhead I don't know how

1758
01:37:55,729 --> 01:37:53,820
they got their hands on a 3D printed

1759
01:37:58,430 --> 01:37:55,739
metal machine

1760
01:38:01,490 --> 01:37:58,440
I'd like access to that please okay the

1761
01:38:03,229 --> 01:38:01,500
remain is set for 600 feet

1762
01:38:05,990 --> 01:38:03,239
I didn't notice they had a lot of 3D

1763
01:38:08,570 --> 01:38:06,000
printed Parts their deployment did also

1764
01:38:10,189 --> 01:38:08,580
have a vertical lift system

1765
01:38:12,290 --> 01:38:10,199
and then oh this is the team that had

1766
01:38:14,750 --> 01:38:12,300
the one really small gear and the one

1767
01:38:16,669 --> 01:38:14,760
really big gear but did not know the

1768
01:38:17,870 --> 01:38:16,679
gear ratio so I'll have to check in on

1769
01:38:19,729 --> 01:38:17,880
what that is

1770
01:38:22,490 --> 01:38:19,739
we also had a their nose could have an

1771
01:38:25,850 --> 01:38:22,500
elliptical shape so it does not stick in

1772
01:38:27,530 --> 01:38:25,860
the ground they have 21 team members 13

1773
01:38:29,930 --> 01:38:27,540
of them are here

1774
01:38:31,790 --> 01:38:29,940
I also learned this team possibly might

1775
01:38:33,290 --> 01:38:31,800
have picked up the rocket in route of

1776
01:38:35,209 --> 01:38:33,300
coming here so I don't know what that

1777
01:38:38,450 --> 01:38:35,219
means they might have left it behind and

1778
01:38:43,310 --> 01:38:40,850
ah and then this is the team I did

1779
01:38:45,530 --> 01:38:43,320
notice they have the largest quick links

1780
01:38:47,510 --> 01:38:45,540
I've ever seen use I think they took the

1781
01:38:50,209 --> 01:38:47,520
one off their parents boat and put it on

1782
01:38:52,729 --> 01:38:50,219
the rocket but these are 6 000 these are

1783
01:38:54,290 --> 01:38:52,739
six thousand pound rated quick links so

1784
01:38:56,810 --> 01:38:54,300
if you need a quick link to tow

1785
01:39:01,010 --> 01:38:56,820
something after this event come see that

1786
01:39:03,530 --> 01:39:01,020
team on pad 80. we have a clear sky we

1787
01:39:07,070 --> 01:39:03,540
have a clear range on pad 80. we're

1788
01:39:11,450 --> 01:39:07,080
going to launch in five four three two

1789
01:39:11,460 --> 01:39:18,490
foreign

1790
01:39:23,990 --> 01:39:20,530
on the

1791
01:39:26,629 --> 01:39:24,000
l1355 it should go about 4 200 feet I

1792
01:39:31,129 --> 01:39:28,970
yep it is arcing over

1793
01:39:35,510 --> 01:39:31,139
there's an event

1794
01:39:35,520 --> 01:39:40,550
main is set for 600 feet

1795
01:39:40,560 --> 01:40:15,169
pretty sure the quick links will hold

1796
01:40:20,330 --> 01:40:17,750
okay I see it it's probably right around

1797
01:40:22,550 --> 01:40:20,340
a thousand feet Maine is set for 600

1798
01:40:25,310 --> 01:40:22,560
feet on this one

1799
01:40:27,950 --> 01:40:25,320
there it is

1800
01:40:36,050 --> 01:40:27,960
okay parachutes out

1801
01:40:40,490 --> 01:40:38,330
okay looks like a good flight

1802
01:40:43,310 --> 01:40:40,500
yeah right off the oh I don't have to go

1803
01:40:45,830 --> 01:40:43,320
too far off of that to get that one

1804
01:40:48,530 --> 01:40:45,840
you can see it land right there okay

1805
01:40:50,330 --> 01:40:48,540
camp at 81 we have University of Miami

1806
01:40:54,110 --> 01:40:50,340
this is the

1807
01:40:56,810 --> 01:40:54,120
University of Miami Coral Gables Florida

1808
01:41:00,729 --> 01:40:56,820
name of this rocket is Ibis one

1809
01:41:04,129 --> 01:41:00,739
uh 46.02 pounds six inch diameter

1810
01:41:06,350 --> 01:41:04,139
10.25 feet tall

1811
01:41:08,530 --> 01:41:06,360
so this the name of this experiment is

1812
01:41:12,530 --> 01:41:08,540
called another acronym

1813
01:41:14,689 --> 01:41:12,540
socci the self-orienting camera control

1814
01:41:17,750 --> 01:41:14,699
instrument uses a looking Vault to

1815
01:41:20,689 --> 01:41:17,760
retain nose cone during flight scissor

1816
01:41:24,770 --> 01:41:20,699
lift pushes out camera pushes out camera

1817
01:41:28,729 --> 01:41:24,780
and nose nose off after landing this

1818
01:41:30,110 --> 01:41:28,739
rocket is flying on a cesarini l 1720

1819
01:41:33,229 --> 01:41:30,120
white thunder so this is going to be

1820
01:41:34,490 --> 01:41:33,239
another Punchy takeoff should go about 4

1821
01:41:35,629 --> 01:41:34,500
000 feet

1822
01:41:38,090 --> 01:41:35,639
um this team this is our first time

1823
01:41:39,770 --> 01:41:38,100
competing in recent history I noticed

1824
01:41:43,609 --> 01:41:39,780
when I looked at this rocket it had a

1825
01:41:45,290 --> 01:41:43,619
super long camera or sorry super long

1826
01:41:47,689 --> 01:41:45,300
um antenna it looks like it came off a

1827
01:41:49,070 --> 01:41:47,699
car possibly so I don't know if you took

1828
01:41:50,930 --> 01:41:49,080
it from a car or something I don't know

1829
01:41:53,149 --> 01:41:50,940
what happened with that they did paint

1830
01:41:55,189 --> 01:41:53,159
it in their school colors it is a 20

1831
01:41:58,070 --> 01:41:55,199
person team they also did mention they

1832
01:42:00,770 --> 01:41:58,080
had a lot of 4 am working nights so

1833
01:42:03,290 --> 01:42:00,780
hopefully that all has paid off pad 81

1834
01:42:21,830 --> 01:42:03,300
clear sky clear range we're launching in

1835
01:42:27,350 --> 01:42:24,410
starting to Arc over there's an event

1836
01:42:45,649 --> 01:42:27,360
there's its back up to the apogee uh oh

1837
01:42:49,550 --> 01:42:47,930
and you can still see the tracking smoke

1838
01:43:11,149 --> 01:42:49,560
on that one that's gonna go for some

1839
01:43:15,709 --> 01:43:13,370
okay so I guess this team is going for

1840
01:44:01,910 --> 01:43:15,719
the L parachute duration

1841
01:44:07,189 --> 01:44:03,649
so we're just gonna wait to make sure

1842
01:44:09,169 --> 01:44:07,199
the um that rocket is in a good spot for

1843
01:44:11,209 --> 01:44:09,179
us so that we can we have one more

1844
01:44:13,070 --> 01:44:11,219
rocket but then we're still gonna hold

1845
01:44:15,229 --> 01:44:13,080
because we've already got the backup

1846
01:44:16,970 --> 01:44:15,239
igniters and we'll put that one I

1847
01:44:18,410 --> 01:44:16,980
believe that was in temples Rockets so

1848
01:44:20,590 --> 01:44:18,420
we'll come back to we'll come back to

1849
01:44:25,310 --> 01:44:20,600
that one

1850
01:44:30,410 --> 01:44:27,649
okay well I'll start reading up to the

1851
01:44:33,410 --> 01:44:30,420
next the next one so this is the uh

1852
01:44:35,990 --> 01:44:33,420
charger rocket works on pad 82. this is

1853
01:44:37,970 --> 01:44:36,000
the oh I guess the team knows what their

1854
01:44:39,229 --> 01:44:37,980
name is that's good

1855
01:44:42,350 --> 01:44:39,239
I didn't even say which university

1856
01:44:43,370 --> 01:44:42,360
that's good University of Alabama in

1857
01:44:44,570 --> 01:44:43,380
Huntsville

1858
01:44:47,830 --> 01:44:44,580
and

1859
01:44:51,770 --> 01:44:47,840
the name of this rocket is Argo

1860
01:44:54,350 --> 01:44:51,780
55.6 pounds six inch in diameter 7.9

1861
01:44:58,490 --> 01:44:54,360
feet tall this does also have a jolly

1862
01:45:01,010 --> 01:44:58,500
logic it is ejected at apogee deploy is

1863
01:45:02,990 --> 01:45:01,020
at the main deploys at 700 feet

1864
01:45:04,970 --> 01:45:03,000
the name of the rocket is The Argonaut

1865
01:45:07,910 --> 01:45:04,980
or for the experiment information it is

1866
01:45:10,550 --> 01:45:07,920
a autonomous leveling platform for

1867
01:45:13,490 --> 01:45:10,560
imagery of the planetary surface

1868
01:45:15,370 --> 01:45:13,500
controlled by rafco

1869
01:45:19,850 --> 01:45:15,380
set

1870
01:45:22,790 --> 01:45:19,860
by NASA using aprs

1871
01:45:24,169 --> 01:45:22,800
being told or notified that we hear some

1872
01:45:30,050 --> 01:45:24,179
aircraft

1873
01:45:44,870 --> 01:45:33,050
yep it's out there going heading

1874
01:45:49,430 --> 01:45:46,790
so with this team I also did notice

1875
01:45:53,270 --> 01:45:49,440
they're flying on a cesaroni l 2375

1876
01:45:55,430 --> 01:45:53,280
should go about 5 000 feet that's they

1877
01:45:59,810 --> 01:45:55,440
the team also claimed this is called

1878
01:46:02,149 --> 01:45:59,820
p-cup technology p dash cup technology

1879
01:46:05,570 --> 01:46:02,159
they said it might be proprietary might

1880
01:46:08,390 --> 01:46:05,580
be trademarked who knows

1881
01:46:11,270 --> 01:46:08,400
um and with the name of this rock at the

1882
01:46:14,290 --> 01:46:11,280
Argo it they also had mentioned though

1883
01:46:17,870 --> 01:46:14,300
this says it ties into Greek mythology

1884
01:46:21,290 --> 01:46:17,880
nose cone from skilla

1885
01:46:23,870 --> 01:46:21,300
Grill skilla from Odyssey which is a

1886
01:46:27,530 --> 01:46:23,880
supernatural female creature with 12

1887
01:46:29,570 --> 01:46:27,540
feet and six heads in Long snakey necks

1888
01:46:32,510 --> 01:46:29,580
I don't know how they should how the

1889
01:46:34,910 --> 01:46:32,520
team settled on that but they did

1890
01:46:37,250 --> 01:46:34,920
um this team also did have a half inch

1891
01:46:39,470 --> 01:46:37,260
aluminum bulk plate I don't think he

1892
01:46:40,669 --> 01:46:39,480
needed it to be that thick but they did

1893
01:46:42,950 --> 01:46:40,679
that

1894
01:46:44,570 --> 01:46:42,960
they also learned about not putting rail

1895
01:46:47,030 --> 01:46:44,580
buttons in line with the altimeter

1896
01:46:48,770 --> 01:46:47,040
switches on their subscale flight don't

1897
01:46:51,169 --> 01:46:48,780
put those in the same line we've all

1898
01:46:54,050 --> 01:46:51,179
probably learned that the hard way

1899
01:46:56,510 --> 01:46:54,060
they also did mention they may have sent

1900
01:46:59,930 --> 01:46:56,520
the wrong version of their frr to the

1901
01:47:03,050 --> 01:46:59,940
NASA team they sent draft one draft one

1902
01:47:05,750 --> 01:47:03,060
included a lot of memes and a lot of

1903
01:47:07,669 --> 01:47:05,760
goofy stuff I guess so I'm sure our

1904
01:47:13,250 --> 01:47:07,679
business folks can relate if you send in

1905
01:47:18,590 --> 01:47:16,189
okay we're good we're on pad 82. clear

1906
01:47:21,669 --> 01:47:18,600
sky clear range we are going to launch

1907
01:47:26,450 --> 01:47:21,679
the University of Alabama in Huntsville

1908
01:47:33,290 --> 01:47:26,460
launching in five four three two one

1909
01:47:33,300 --> 01:47:39,590
I think I

1910
01:47:39,600 --> 01:47:44,689
so that one's supposed to go 5 000 feet

1911
01:47:52,310 --> 01:47:47,810
that's the LL 2375

1912
01:48:05,030 --> 01:47:55,129
just a really small drogue the main is

1913
01:48:05,040 --> 01:48:12,649
well

1914
01:48:17,689 --> 01:48:15,290
all right so now we are probably about a

1915
01:48:21,229 --> 01:48:17,699
thousand feet should have the main here

1916
01:48:24,649 --> 01:48:21,239
pretty soon probably 800 feet right now

1917
01:48:31,970 --> 01:48:24,659
the main is set for 700 feet

1918
01:48:36,530 --> 01:48:34,550
so we we're not going out range is still

1919
01:48:38,090 --> 01:48:36,540
closed right now we just have we're

1920
01:48:40,850 --> 01:48:38,100
putting in another igniter and we're

1921
01:49:27,530 --> 01:48:40,860
gonna recycle and fly this one

1922
01:49:31,729 --> 01:49:29,209
so as this one is just about to touch

1923
01:49:34,189 --> 01:49:31,739
down we're putting in another igniter

1924
01:49:37,189 --> 01:49:34,199
the team that had the uh

1925
01:49:39,950 --> 01:49:37,199
higher than normal descent rate came in

1926
01:49:42,050 --> 01:49:39,960
ballistic one Dart if you will send one

1927
01:49:44,689 --> 01:49:42,060
of your representatives up to the lco

1928
01:49:45,950 --> 01:49:44,699
desk or the RSO desk so for that team

1929
01:49:48,830 --> 01:49:45,960
that just had that one come in a little

1930
01:49:51,950 --> 01:49:48,840
quick very quick very very quick send

1931
01:49:54,410 --> 01:49:51,960
someone up to the lco or RSO desks which

1932
01:50:14,510 --> 01:49:54,420
wanted to have a quick debrief on that

1933
01:50:17,450 --> 01:50:16,010
so I want to make a quick announcement

1934
01:50:20,450 --> 01:50:17,460
there is a truck parked in the wrong

1935
01:50:22,609 --> 01:50:20,460
spot it is a dark gray F-150 with the

1936
01:50:25,129 --> 01:50:22,619
F-150 it looks like it's painted in the

1937
01:50:28,129 --> 01:50:25,139
American flag colors the license plate

1938
01:50:30,830 --> 01:50:28,139
47c9

1939
01:50:32,390 --> 01:50:30,840
four or six four C you're not parked in

1940
01:50:35,750 --> 01:50:32,400
the appropriate area

1941
01:50:39,470 --> 01:50:35,760
okay so the Ford F-150 with the license

1942
01:50:41,270 --> 01:50:39,480
plate four seven c nine six four C it's

1943
01:50:43,850 --> 01:50:41,280
a yellow plate I don't know what state

1944
01:50:45,530 --> 01:50:43,860
that is oh it's Alabama plate you're

1945
01:50:52,550 --> 01:50:45,540
parked in the wrong area you need to

1946
01:50:57,410 --> 01:50:54,530
you may or may not be told if you don't

1947
01:51:33,470 --> 01:50:59,450
so we're just putting in another igniter

1948
01:51:38,209 --> 01:51:35,750
since we're putting in the other we're

1949
01:51:40,070 --> 01:51:38,219
putting the neck and igniter right now

1950
01:51:41,629 --> 01:51:40,080
just want to say hello to those that are

1951
01:51:43,250 --> 01:51:41,639
online I'm kind of looking through the

1952
01:51:45,950 --> 01:51:43,260
phone and everyone's being nice and very

1953
01:51:48,770 --> 01:51:45,960
civilized on the chats and encouraging

1954
01:51:51,830 --> 01:51:48,780
words from from your team members and

1955
01:51:53,629 --> 01:51:51,840
your support from the University so nice

1956
01:54:04,669 --> 01:51:53,639
to see that everyone's being nice and

1957
01:54:09,830 --> 01:54:08,570
okay as the um away cell team is uh

1958
01:54:11,209 --> 01:54:09,840
putting a new igniter this is again

1959
01:54:14,209 --> 01:54:11,219
Temple University from Philadelphia

1960
01:54:16,850 --> 01:54:14,219
Pennsylvania name of this rock is Balboa

1961
01:54:21,290 --> 01:54:16,860
it's got the in-flight camera and 360

1962
01:54:24,169 --> 01:54:21,300
Imaging system IFL takes 360.

1963
01:54:27,350 --> 01:54:24,179
uh fov during flight ground camera

1964
01:54:28,729 --> 01:54:27,360
deploys and takes a series of photos of

1965
01:54:31,790 --> 01:54:28,739
the launch vehicles and surroundings

1966
01:54:33,609 --> 01:54:31,800
this is again on pad 41. it's flying on

1967
01:54:49,669 --> 01:54:33,619
the

1968
01:54:53,930 --> 01:54:49,679
we have a clear sky clear range new

1969
01:54:58,010 --> 01:54:53,940
igniter launching in five four three two

1970
01:55:04,850 --> 01:54:59,400
there it goes

1971
01:55:10,729 --> 01:55:07,629
so this one's supposed to go 4

1972
01:55:16,310 --> 01:55:10,739
935 feet

1973
01:55:16,320 --> 01:55:22,850
starting to Arc over there is an event

1974
01:55:27,430 --> 01:55:25,010
I hear the backup

1975
01:55:41,629 --> 01:55:27,440
main is set for

1976
01:55:54,189 --> 01:55:43,070
they were still probably about a couple

1977
01:55:54,199 --> 01:56:03,350
still probably maybe 1500

1978
01:56:03,360 --> 01:56:09,229
should be now about a thousand

1979
01:56:13,970 --> 01:56:11,149
should be just under a thousand and

1980
01:56:15,410 --> 01:56:13,980
we're the main is set for 650 feet there

1981
01:56:18,590 --> 01:56:15,420
it is

1982
01:56:20,390 --> 01:56:18,600
usually the parachute opens

1983
01:56:22,609 --> 01:56:20,400
I hope you did not leave it rubber band

1984
01:56:24,830 --> 01:56:22,619
bound up because that's what that might

1985
01:56:26,330 --> 01:56:24,840
look like

1986
01:56:28,250 --> 01:56:26,340
okay everyone give yourselves a hand we

1987
01:56:30,350 --> 01:56:28,260
got through that first that first uh

1988
01:56:32,570 --> 01:56:30,360
volley so we're a third way there nice

1989
01:56:35,030 --> 01:56:32,580
work so team when you're recovering your

1990
01:56:37,070 --> 01:56:35,040
Rockets make sure that stuff is going

1991
01:56:39,410 --> 01:56:37,080
you stay outside there's everything

1992
01:56:42,129 --> 01:56:39,420
marked around the perimeter you'll see

1993
01:56:44,750 --> 01:56:42,139
orange or yellow

1994
01:56:46,609 --> 01:56:44,760
markings around the perimeter so if

1995
01:56:48,229 --> 01:56:46,619
you're still out there well we're

1996
01:56:49,970 --> 01:56:48,239
starting to launch the second volley you

1997
01:56:52,850 --> 01:56:49,980
have to stay outside of that range

1998
01:56:55,310 --> 01:56:52,860
coming back in

1999
01:57:02,290 --> 01:56:55,320
oh you have to go outside to get it

2000
01:57:07,669 --> 01:57:05,390
of rockets 17 Rockets to take into the

2001
01:57:09,950 --> 01:57:07,679
air hey just a reminder we are live with

2002
01:57:11,870 --> 01:57:09,960
you on YouTube and Facebook make sure if

2003
01:57:13,370 --> 01:57:11,880
you have any questions uh make sure to

2004
01:57:14,930 --> 01:57:13,380
comment those and we'll try to get to

2005
01:57:16,910 --> 01:57:14,940
them on air also give us a shout out

2006
01:57:18,709 --> 01:57:16,920
where are you from who what team are you

2007
01:57:20,990 --> 01:57:18,719
pulling for I can tell you one of the

2008
01:57:22,910 --> 01:57:21,000
teams that I'm with now it's truly an

2009
01:57:25,970 --> 01:57:22,920
honor for me to be here with the United

2010
01:57:27,589 --> 01:57:25,980
States Military Academy y'all how are

2011
01:57:30,050 --> 01:57:27,599
you feeling today after seeing those

2012
01:57:31,310 --> 01:57:30,060
first launches coming we're doing great

2013
01:57:33,290 --> 01:57:31,320
sir so first of all thank you for having

2014
01:57:34,609 --> 01:57:33,300
us here it's been a long journey but

2015
01:57:36,169 --> 01:57:34,619
after seeing those Rockets take off

2016
01:57:38,030 --> 01:57:36,179
we're more excited than we've ever been

2017
01:57:40,010 --> 01:57:38,040
we're confident in our system we're

2018
01:57:41,990 --> 01:57:40,020
ready to watch you fly so you guys are

2019
01:57:43,609 --> 01:57:42,000
launching later in the day how do you

2020
01:57:45,290 --> 01:57:43,619
think your Rocket's gonna do compared to

2021
01:57:47,450 --> 01:57:45,300
these other ones that we just saw

2022
01:57:49,609 --> 01:57:47,460
so we've seen some of the way that teams

2023
01:57:51,290 --> 01:57:49,619
have formula Solutions the problems that

2024
01:57:53,030 --> 01:57:51,300
you've given us and we can definitely

2025
01:57:55,070 --> 01:57:53,040
say our rocket is going to perform a lot

2026
01:57:56,450 --> 01:57:55,080
faster than most of these teams you know

2027
01:57:58,129 --> 01:57:56,460
we're in the Army we like to move fast

2028
01:58:00,290 --> 01:57:58,139
so we're going to definitely give you a

2029
01:58:02,089 --> 01:58:00,300
show and you know seeing some of the

2030
01:58:03,649 --> 01:58:02,099
failures we're slightly nervous but

2031
01:58:05,450 --> 01:58:03,659
having tested our system over four times

2032
01:58:07,070 --> 01:58:05,460
having double checked triple checked

2033
01:58:09,350 --> 01:58:07,080
everything we know our stuff is going to

2034
01:58:11,270 --> 01:58:09,360
work excellent so lots of testing lots

2035
01:58:12,830 --> 01:58:11,280
of preparation went into this you guys

2036
01:58:14,330 --> 01:58:12,840
are launching later today talk to us

2037
01:58:16,729 --> 01:58:14,340
about the payload challenge how did you

2038
01:58:18,890 --> 01:58:16,739
guys tackle uh the requirements given to

2039
01:58:21,410 --> 01:58:18,900
you by the NASA challenge

2040
01:58:23,209 --> 01:58:21,420
sir so our payload is a cylindrical

2041
01:58:25,310 --> 01:58:23,219
payload that actually unlike a lot of

2042
01:58:27,470 --> 01:58:25,320
the teams here leaves the body tube when

2043
01:58:29,270 --> 01:58:27,480
it deploys from the main oh what happens

2044
01:58:30,950 --> 01:58:29,280
then is the payload then reaches the

2045
01:58:33,050 --> 01:58:30,960
ground and then pushes itself upright

2046
01:58:34,790 --> 01:58:33,060
using some self-riding legs uh we have

2047
01:58:36,410 --> 01:58:34,800
an onboard gyroscope on there to be able

2048
01:58:38,810 --> 01:58:36,420
to correct any orientation errors we

2049
01:58:40,430 --> 01:58:38,820
have and it can retract and re-extend

2050
01:58:42,530 --> 01:58:40,440
depending on the orientation where it's

2051
01:58:43,850 --> 01:58:42,540
at now if that doesn't work it can go up

2052
01:58:45,470 --> 01:58:43,860
to a maximum of three times before it

2053
01:58:47,089 --> 01:58:45,480
locks out in the extended position and

2054
01:58:49,189 --> 01:58:47,099
then it goes on to the RF Imaging

2055
01:58:51,530 --> 01:58:49,199
sequence so our payload is supposed to

2056
01:58:53,810 --> 01:58:51,540
be designed to be able to be deployed on

2057
01:58:55,189 --> 01:58:53,820
mass say like in a potential lunar

2058
01:58:56,930 --> 01:58:55,199
lander situation A Mars Landing

2059
01:58:58,850 --> 01:58:56,940
situation we can deploy these payloads

2060
01:59:01,010 --> 01:58:58,860
like cubesats that serve a potential

2061
01:59:03,470 --> 01:59:01,020
Landing sites and get a ground level

2062
01:59:05,930 --> 01:59:03,480
view of where we might potentially land

2063
01:59:08,209 --> 01:59:05,940
okay that's freaking awesome I love that

2064
01:59:09,410 --> 01:59:08,219
guys tell us what the experience has

2065
01:59:11,330 --> 01:59:09,420
been like I know you guys have had some

2066
01:59:12,169 --> 01:59:11,340
challenges just to get here to launch

2067
01:59:13,910 --> 01:59:12,179
day

2068
01:59:15,530 --> 01:59:13,920
right sir so one of the biggest things

2069
01:59:17,810 --> 01:59:15,540
you have to overcome is this is our

2070
01:59:19,609 --> 01:59:17,820
first year ever doing student launch at

2071
01:59:21,169 --> 01:59:19,619
the Academy so we did not have really

2072
01:59:22,669 --> 01:59:21,179
the organizations to fully support this

2073
01:59:24,109 --> 01:59:22,679
we haven't done this before so

2074
01:59:26,270 --> 01:59:24,119
thankfully some other teams have helped

2075
01:59:27,890 --> 01:59:26,280
us out to get our Rockets here and we're

2076
01:59:29,990 --> 01:59:27,900
able to fly down the cadets from West

2077
01:59:32,030 --> 01:59:30,000
Point but it's also been a challenge of

2078
01:59:33,169 --> 01:59:32,040
you know repeatedly testing the stuff

2079
01:59:35,330 --> 01:59:33,179
and just going out there and learning

2080
01:59:37,310 --> 01:59:35,340
like hey we never learned these lessons

2081
01:59:39,229 --> 01:59:37,320
before we've had so many failures that

2082
01:59:41,510 --> 01:59:39,239
we've taken into our later designs and

2083
01:59:43,070 --> 01:59:41,520
now we know what to do so all that

2084
01:59:44,990 --> 01:59:43,080
learning that's taking these teams

2085
01:59:47,330 --> 01:59:45,000
Decades of student launch competitions

2086
01:59:50,149 --> 01:59:47,340
we've done within an eight-month period

2087
01:59:52,070 --> 01:59:50,159
and we're here to compete as strong as

2088
01:59:54,530 --> 01:59:52,080
they are that's awesome you know Homer

2089
01:59:55,790 --> 01:59:54,540
Hickam the famous rocket boy called it a

2090
01:59:57,050 --> 01:59:55,800
book of knowledge it certainly sounds

2091
01:59:58,669 --> 01:59:57,060
like you guys have built that Book of

2092
01:59:59,930 --> 01:59:58,679
Knowledge anybody back home you want to

2093
02:00:01,669 --> 01:59:59,940
make sure you give a shout out to or

2094
02:00:03,470 --> 02:00:01,679
think right so obviously want to thank

2095
02:00:04,790 --> 02:00:03,480
the academy for supporting us all the

2096
02:00:06,589 --> 02:00:04,800
five departments that came together as

2097
02:00:10,669 --> 02:00:06,599
well as the kid advisors and most

2098
02:00:13,250 --> 02:00:10,679
importantly Go Army Navy there you have

2099
02:00:15,350 --> 02:00:13,260
the United States Military Academy our

2100
02:00:17,270 --> 02:00:15,360
future soldiers making sure that we stay

2101
02:00:19,310 --> 02:00:17,280
safe and making sure that we can explore

2102
02:00:23,570 --> 02:00:19,320
like we've always dreamed of let's send

2103
02:00:27,589 --> 02:00:25,609
thanks will I am here with the project

2104
02:00:29,270 --> 02:00:27,599
manager manager of the University of

2105
02:00:31,490 --> 02:00:29,280
Alabama team please introduce yourself

2106
02:00:33,770 --> 02:00:31,500

was born and raised in Qatar and I'm an

2109
02:00:39,169 --> 02:00:37,619
aerospace engineer awesome so how did

2110
02:00:41,330 --> 02:00:39,179
the launch go today how's the team doing

2111
02:00:43,609 --> 02:00:41,340
the team is doing great the launch went

2112
02:00:45,350 --> 02:00:43,619
fantastic yeah awesome I saw the launch

2113
02:00:47,149 --> 02:00:45,360
went a little bit far out into the tree

2114
02:00:49,550 --> 02:00:47,159
so is your team busy retrieving it right

2115
02:00:51,470 --> 02:00:49,560
now yep right now we're on our way to go

2116
02:00:52,729 --> 02:00:51,480
retrieve a rocket um it was lodged

2117
02:00:54,589 --> 02:00:52,739
between the trees so that's gonna be a

2118
02:00:55,910 --> 02:00:54,599
challenge but we're glad that the launch

2119
02:00:57,290 --> 02:00:55,920
went well and it was recovered

2120
02:00:59,689 --> 02:00:57,300
successfully yeah absolutely

2121
02:01:01,189 --> 02:00:59,699
congratulations on that so throughout

2122
02:01:03,890 --> 02:01:01,199
the season did your team face any

2123
02:01:05,990 --> 02:01:03,900
certain challenges or difficulties yes

2124
02:01:07,729 --> 02:01:06,000
we had um you know a plethora of

2125
02:01:10,370 --> 02:01:07,739
different challenges that came in our

2126
02:01:12,470 --> 02:01:10,380
way beginning at the in the beginning of

2127
02:01:14,330 --> 02:01:12,480
the school year our advisor sadly passed

2128
02:01:16,669 --> 02:01:14,340
away and so you know it was a challenge

2129
02:01:18,830 --> 02:01:16,679
to go find a new advisor and make sure

2130
02:01:21,530 --> 02:01:18,840
the team was taken care of in the new

2131
02:01:23,870 --> 02:01:21,540
advisor's hands we also were set back

2132
02:01:26,030 --> 02:01:23,880
because there was a fire in a Design Lab

2133
02:01:27,410 --> 02:01:26,040
that was very close to our lab and so we

2134
02:01:29,390 --> 02:01:27,420
had to make sure that that was taken

2135
02:01:30,649 --> 02:01:29,400
care of and we had to revise our safety

2136
02:01:33,589 --> 02:01:30,659
standards to make sure they were you

2137
02:01:34,910 --> 02:01:33,599
know up to date apart from that we also

2138
02:01:38,030 --> 02:01:34,920
had a lot of challenges in terms of

2139
02:01:39,830 --> 02:01:38,040
weather and being able to fly on time to

2140
02:01:42,109 --> 02:01:39,840
make sure that we met the deadline said

2141
02:01:44,030 --> 02:01:42,119
by NASA but overall the team trudged

2142
02:01:46,189 --> 02:01:44,040
through and did a great job and I'm so

2143
02:01:47,870 --> 02:01:46,199
proud of everyone yeah absolutely

2144
02:01:49,129 --> 02:01:47,880
sometimes you know rocket is a design

2145
02:01:51,109 --> 02:01:49,139
and competitions come with a lot of

2146
02:01:53,750 --> 02:01:51,119
adversities and challenges but it seems

2147
02:01:57,310 --> 02:01:53,760
like you guys are super resilient so

2148
02:02:04,189 --> 02:01:59,930
I'm talking

2149
02:02:04,199 --> 02:02:08,990
women are just like

2150
02:02:09,000 --> 02:02:11,830
um

2151
02:02:11,840 --> 02:02:31,250
you see did you join the team

2152
02:02:35,030 --> 02:02:33,169
yeah

2153
02:02:37,669 --> 02:02:35,040
hey everyone I'm here with Central

2154
02:02:39,410 --> 02:02:37,679
Washington uh their rocket hasn't flown

2155
02:02:40,669 --> 02:02:39,420
yet so talk to us what's going through

2156
02:02:42,830 --> 02:02:40,679
your mind now that you've seen the first

2157
02:02:44,450 --> 02:02:42,840
volley of rockets go I'm feeling really

2158
02:02:45,950 --> 02:02:44,460
good about it we've had nice straight

2159
02:02:47,870 --> 02:02:45,960
flights everything's been well for us

2160
02:02:49,430 --> 02:02:47,880
seeing that lawn dart made me a little

2161
02:02:50,450 --> 02:02:49,440
bit nervous but we're not going to do

2162
02:02:52,310 --> 02:02:50,460
that we're going to have a gorgeous

2163
02:02:53,990 --> 02:02:52,320
flight so our view for our viewers back

2164
02:02:56,149 --> 02:02:54,000
home who may not be super familiar with

2165
02:02:58,609 --> 02:02:56,159
rocketry what would cost something like

2166
02:03:00,050 --> 02:02:58,619
a lot and I know it's speculation but if

2167
02:03:01,250 --> 02:03:00,060
your rocket were to do that what's kind

2168
02:03:02,209 --> 02:03:01,260
of your first thought that you're going

2169
02:03:03,890 --> 02:03:02,219
what's the first thing you're going to

2170
02:03:05,930 --> 02:03:03,900
go look for my first thought is going to

2171
02:03:07,370 --> 02:03:05,940
be Electronics a faulty altimeter or a

2172
02:03:09,589 --> 02:03:07,380
faulty connection maybe something that

2173
02:03:10,910 --> 02:03:09,599
got pulled out we've done enough testing

2174
02:03:12,169 --> 02:03:10,920
with our ejection charges we know

2175
02:03:14,270 --> 02:03:12,179
they're the right size to get that

2176
02:03:15,530 --> 02:03:14,280
parachute out but if for some reason the

2177
02:03:17,629 --> 02:03:15,540
electronics failed us and it didn't

2178
02:03:19,790 --> 02:03:17,639
deploy that that would be my guess it's

2179
02:03:21,530 --> 02:03:19,800
always a bad day to see it so talk to us

2180
02:03:23,330 --> 02:03:21,540
about your rock how tall is it how did

2181
02:03:25,010 --> 02:03:23,340
you tackle this payload challenge it's a

2182
02:03:28,010 --> 02:03:25,020
camera I understand that has to take

2183
02:03:34,669 --> 02:03:28,020
signals from a NASA Tower yeah

2184
02:03:38,149 --> 02:03:36,649
10 Periscope so it'll push the nose cone

2185
02:03:40,370 --> 02:03:38,159
off the camera comes on out and it does

2186
02:03:41,450 --> 02:03:40,380
its little spin around oh that's cool so

2187
02:03:44,689 --> 02:03:41,460
coming all the way from Washington

2188
02:03:46,250 --> 02:03:44,699
that's a long way from North Alabama how

2189
02:03:47,750 --> 02:03:46,260
has it been like trying to get down here

2190
02:03:49,609 --> 02:03:47,760
getting your rocket your payload here

2191
02:03:52,189 --> 02:03:49,619
what's that experience been like for you

2192
02:03:54,109 --> 02:03:52,199
all you know actually really fun TSA has

2193
02:03:55,729 --> 02:03:54,119
been very nice to us and we managed to

2194
02:03:57,790 --> 02:03:55,739
fly it took about an hour to to convince

2195
02:04:00,229 --> 02:03:57,800
him but they let us take it on the plane

2196
02:04:01,850 --> 02:04:00,239
it's kind of a challenge getting out

2197
02:04:03,290 --> 02:04:01,860
it's a two-hour drive to the airport six

2198
02:04:06,109 --> 02:04:03,300
hour flight down here and then a three

2199
02:04:07,490 --> 02:04:06,119
hour drive to Alabama but we got here we

2200
02:04:09,229 --> 02:04:07,500
were in good spirits and we're happy to

2201
02:04:11,089 --> 02:04:09,239
be here now I hope your test flight

2202
02:04:13,910 --> 02:04:11,099
areas were a little bit closer right

2203
02:04:17,810 --> 02:04:13,920
yeah I think the closest was uh we had

2204
02:04:20,990 --> 02:04:19,430
I feel we put a lot of dedication a lot

2205
02:04:22,970 --> 02:04:21,000
of work and a lot of travel to be here

2206
02:04:24,470 --> 02:04:22,980
anybody you want it back home you want

2207
02:04:25,790 --> 02:04:24,480
to thank any professors anybody that

2208
02:04:27,950 --> 02:04:25,800
helped make this happen for you guys

2209
02:04:29,629 --> 02:04:27,960
absolutely we want to do a big shout out

2210
02:04:31,189 --> 02:04:29,639
to the Washington Space Grant they gave

2211
02:04:32,870 --> 02:04:31,199
us the money to do this we would not be

2212
02:04:34,310 --> 02:04:32,880
able to do it without them the physics

2213
02:04:36,290 --> 02:04:34,320
department has been a big help at our

2214
02:04:37,370 --> 02:04:36,300
school Central Washington University the

2215
02:04:40,070 --> 02:04:37,380
engineering department has been

2216
02:04:41,510 --> 02:04:40,080

now but everyone's been pumped we've

2250
02:05:50,750 --> 02:05:48,599
been planning this for almost a year now

2251
02:05:51,830 --> 02:05:50,760
awesome so tell me you were telling me a

2252
02:05:53,390 --> 02:05:51,840
little bit early about some challenges

2253
02:05:54,830 --> 02:05:53,400
and difficulties you face so tell me

2254
02:05:56,270 --> 02:05:54,840
about that yeah so this is our first

2255
02:05:57,709 --> 02:05:56,280
year as an organization actually doing

2256
02:05:59,330 --> 02:05:57,719
this event we've had two really

2257
02:06:00,589 --> 02:05:59,340
noticeable failures the first one was

2258
02:06:02,629 --> 02:06:00,599
our vehicle demonstration flight where

2259
02:06:04,370 --> 02:06:02,639
our drogue did not catch wind and we

2260
02:06:06,410 --> 02:06:04,380
actually hit the ground at 150 feet per

2261
02:06:08,270 --> 02:06:06,420
second we had to dig out the rocket

2262
02:06:10,430 --> 02:06:08,280
using shovels we actually reached the

2263
02:06:12,050 --> 02:06:10,440
clay layer using that the other more

2264
02:06:13,310 --> 02:06:12,060
interesting one is that on our payload

2265
02:06:15,050 --> 02:06:13,320
demonstration flight everything went

2266
02:06:17,450 --> 02:06:15,060
according to plan however there's a 20

2267
02:06:19,550 --> 02:06:17,460
foot wide canal in our 2200 foot drift

2268
02:06:21,350 --> 02:06:19,560
radius and we just so happened to land

2269
02:06:22,910 --> 02:06:21,360
with our drug on One Tree on the other

2270
02:06:24,290 --> 02:06:22,920
side I made another and right in the

2271
02:06:26,330 --> 02:06:24,300
middle thousand dollars of electronics

2272
02:06:27,589 --> 02:06:26,340
yeah well it's still good to see you

2273
02:06:29,689 --> 02:06:27,599
guys here today you guys obviously

2274
02:06:31,070 --> 02:06:29,699
overcame everything you had to I'm

2275
02:06:33,229 --> 02:06:31,080
learning that so many teams are

2276
02:06:35,450 --> 02:06:33,239
resilient have to come overcome so much

2277
02:06:37,310 --> 02:06:35,460
so is there anyone you want to thank or

2278
02:06:38,629 --> 02:06:37,320
shout out today definitely my other

2279
02:06:39,890 --> 02:06:38,639

2284
02:06:49,070 --> 02:06:46,800
sophomores so these guys have done

2285
02:06:50,750 --> 02:06:49,080
amazing like of entirely as Brad body

2286
02:06:53,330 --> 02:06:50,760
tube entirely as Brad payload the things

2287
02:06:54,410 --> 02:06:53,340
these guys are doing is awesome I had I

2288
02:06:55,910 --> 02:06:54,420
made the mistake of doubting them at

2289
02:06:57,709 --> 02:06:55,920
first and they've constantly exceeded my

2290
02:06:59,689 --> 02:06:57,719
expectations and I'm more than proud of

2291
02:07:00,830 --> 02:06:59,699
them yeah that's awesome so it's your

2292
02:07:02,330 --> 02:07:00,840
first time here at the challenge in

2293
02:07:04,490 --> 02:07:02,340
person yep all my first time doing

2294
02:07:05,870 --> 02:07:04,500
rocketry actually okay awesome so what

2295
02:07:08,030 --> 02:07:05,880
advice would you give for a new team

2296
02:07:09,950 --> 02:07:08,040
that might join next year so definitely

2297
02:07:11,030 --> 02:07:09,960
take those leadership positions and just

2298
02:07:12,770 --> 02:07:11,040
be resilient you're gonna hit a lot of

2299
02:07:14,270 --> 02:07:12,780
roadblocks but the one thing I noticed a

2300
02:07:15,830 --> 02:07:14,280
lot of new people are afraid to be your

2301
02:07:17,750 --> 02:07:15,840
managers or be leads in their clubs

2302
02:07:19,729 --> 02:07:17,760
definitely take those roles you will

2303
02:07:21,530 --> 02:07:19,739
definitely supersede your expectations

2304
02:07:23,030 --> 02:07:21,540
awesome was there anything else you want

2305
02:07:24,950 --> 02:07:23,040

2308
02:07:31,370 --> 02:07:28,560
yeah thank you so much good luck today

2309
02:07:32,689 --> 02:07:31,380

2200 foot

2314
02:07:44,030 --> 02:07:41,400
uh landing area and they hit the 20-foot

2315
02:07:46,129 --> 02:07:44,040
Canal hey it's a hole in one if you ask

2316

02:08:36,350 --> 02:08:34,080
are setting up their Rockets our first

2341
02:08:38,330 --> 02:08:36,360
teams are recovering their rockets and

2342
02:08:39,950 --> 02:08:38,340
operating their payloads so we're going

2343
02:08:41,330 --> 02:08:39,960
to send you their wide shot we're going

2344
02:08:44,030 --> 02:08:41,340
to be back with you before the next

2345
02:08:46,189 --> 02:08:44,040
volley of rocket launches so stay tuned

2346
02:08:48,410 --> 02:08:46,199
with us we are live from brag farms in

2347
02:08:49,970 --> 02:08:48,420
Tony Alabama for the 2023 NASA student

2348
02:08:53,510 --> 02:08:49,980
launch finale we'll be back with you

2349
02:08:53,520 --> 02:10:36,229
thanks listen

2350
02:10:36,239 --> 02:11:13,430
okay

2351
02:11:17,450 --> 02:11:15,169
so you can see we're starting to set up

2352
02:11:19,070 --> 02:11:17,460
for volley too it'll be a little bit but

2353
02:11:20,870 --> 02:11:19,080
there all the teams are out there

2354
02:11:22,250 --> 02:11:20,880
they're getting set up

2355
02:11:23,930 --> 02:11:22,260
um for that truck that's still not

2356
02:11:28,070 --> 02:11:23,940
parked in the right spot that's that

2357
02:11:31,010 --> 02:11:28,080
gray Ford F-150 with the Alabama plates

2358
02:11:33,229 --> 02:11:31,020
I think the truck is owned by Clint Ross

2359
02:11:37,490 --> 02:11:33,239
So Clint Ross you need to move your

2360
02:11:39,589 --> 02:11:37,500
truck the F-150 the gray F-150 you're

2361
02:11:42,109 --> 02:11:39,599
parked in an exit area

2362
02:11:44,030 --> 02:11:42,119
don't want to tow the truck we need to

2363
02:11:46,850 --> 02:11:44,040
make sure we get the the car out

2364
02:11:49,490 --> 02:11:46,860
and then make sure you you let the team

2365
02:11:50,930 --> 02:11:49,500
check in tent know once you've moved the

2366
02:11:53,390 --> 02:11:50,940
vehicle

2367
02:36:13,070 --> 02:11:53,400
so Clint Ross just move your truck

2368
02:36:13,080 --> 02:36:27,670
change engine start three two one

2369
02:36:35,510 --> 02:36:31,250
okay I have a announcement uh we need a

2370
02:36:39,050 --> 02:36:35,520
car moved it's a Toyota Highlanders uh

2371
02:36:42,230 --> 02:36:39,060
it's a silver and uh the number is I

2372
02:36:45,889 --> 02:36:42,240
can't read that uh

2373
02:36:57,770 --> 02:36:48,950
Virginia plates uh please move your

2374
02:37:05,030 --> 02:36:59,870
all right

2375
02:37:24,350 --> 02:37:05,040
seven six five four stage engine start

2376
02:38:17,929 --> 02:37:55,870
[Music]

2377
02:38:17,939 --> 02:38:52,070
yes

2378
02:38:52,080 --> 02:39:47,690
um

2379
02:39:50,030 --> 02:39:49,250
they're ready to launch whenever our

2380
02:41:09,309 --> 02:39:50,040
camera

2381
02:41:09,319 --> 02:41:52,330
thank you

2382
02:41:52,340 --> 02:42:25,670
[Music]

2383
02:42:25,680 --> 02:43:36,490
foreign

2384
02:43:36,500 --> 02:44:23,650
[Music]

2385
02:44:35,030 --> 02:44:25,969
so let's send it over to our launch

2386
02:44:50,630 --> 02:44:43,610
okay

2387
02:44:54,290 --> 02:44:50,640
oh we got a person entering the range

2388
02:44:56,510 --> 02:44:54,300
always outside the flags okay

2389
02:44:58,900 --> 02:44:56,520
we are now starting volley too so we can

2390
02:45:02,210 --> 02:44:58,910
accuse the woohoo again there we go

2391
02:45:04,490 --> 02:45:02,220
[Applause]

2392
02:45:09,410 --> 02:45:04,500
all right so now we're gonna start with

2393
02:45:12,590 --> 02:45:09,420
pad 20. this is Yamhill carton I'm sorry

2394
02:45:15,170 --> 02:45:12,600
Carlton SLI this is Yamhill Carlton high

2395
02:45:17,090 --> 02:45:15,180
school out of Vienna Hill Oregon

2396
02:45:19,969 --> 02:45:17,100
this is on pad 20. the name of this

2397
02:45:23,290 --> 02:45:19,979
rocket is the germinator it's a 19.8

2398
02:45:26,570 --> 02:45:23,300
pound rocket 4 inch in diameter

2399
02:45:28,969 --> 02:45:26,580
8.275 feet with the vehicle notes this

2400
02:45:32,450 --> 02:45:28,979
does have a direct airflow from nose

2401
02:45:36,010 --> 02:45:32,460
cone intakes to the intakes to power the

2402
02:45:40,849 --> 02:45:38,990
technology it's definitely unique they

2403
02:45:43,429 --> 02:45:40,859
also do have the acronym of course it's

2404
02:45:47,389 --> 02:45:43,439
called the k-a-s-a which stands for

2405
02:45:49,370 --> 02:45:47,399
kinetic agricultural seed apparatus our

2406
02:45:52,190 --> 02:45:49,380
payload harnesses the airflow and

2407
02:45:55,070 --> 02:45:52,200
kinetic energy of the rocket to power an

2408
02:45:58,190 --> 02:45:55,080
internal turbine that spins a speed

2409
02:46:01,490 --> 02:45:58,200
canister deployed seeds per particulates

2410
02:46:02,990 --> 02:46:01,500
at motor burnout now for the for the

2411
02:46:04,849 --> 02:46:03,000
flight today they're not going to be

2412
02:46:07,370 --> 02:46:04,859
reseeding the brag Farm they're not

2413
02:46:08,570 --> 02:46:07,380
doing that today it is capable of doing

2414
02:46:11,330 --> 02:46:08,580
that but they're not going to do that

2415
02:46:13,670 --> 02:46:11,340
for today they didn't ask for it well

2416
02:46:16,910 --> 02:46:13,680
this rocket is definitely flying uh it's

2417
02:46:20,090 --> 02:46:16,920
an Aerotech k695 red line should go

2418
02:46:21,530 --> 02:46:20,100
about 4 200 feet

2419
02:46:23,389 --> 02:46:21,540
um I did notice it has a really cool

2420
02:46:26,450 --> 02:46:23,399
unique paint job on it it actually does

2421
02:46:29,030 --> 02:46:26,460
have laser engraving on the fins the

2422
02:46:30,830 --> 02:46:29,040
team did vote on five different ideas to

2423
02:46:33,230 --> 02:46:30,840
determine how to paint and finish the

2424
02:46:35,870 --> 02:46:33,240
rocket I am also aware it was a

2425
02:46:39,550 --> 02:46:35,880
father-daughter project to finish and

2426
02:46:43,429 --> 02:46:39,560
paint the rocket so that's pretty cool

2427
02:46:45,230 --> 02:46:43,439
okay on pad 20 we have a clear sky we

2428
02:46:48,410 --> 02:46:45,240
have a clear rain on the germinator

2429
02:46:55,790 --> 02:46:48,420
we're going to launch in five four three

2430
02:47:00,889 --> 02:46:58,429
okay nice straight up boost headed on

2431
02:47:03,469 --> 02:47:00,899
its way to 4 200 feet

2432
02:47:05,809 --> 02:47:03,479
can air or hold of the nose come that's

2433
02:47:08,210 --> 02:47:05,819
supposed to spin up a turbine

2434
02:47:10,610 --> 02:47:08,220
them with theoretically spread seeds

2435
02:47:15,410 --> 02:47:10,620
there's an event there's a backup to the

2436
02:47:20,929 --> 02:47:17,090
and then the main for this one is set

2437
02:47:24,530 --> 02:47:23,030
and just right above the side so this

2438
02:47:26,870 --> 02:47:24,540
one will

2439
02:47:36,590 --> 02:47:26,880
underdrop parachute go right through the

2440
02:47:40,070 --> 02:47:38,450
okay now it's just to the yeah just

2441
02:47:42,469 --> 02:47:40,080
below to the side a little to the left

2442
02:47:46,550 --> 02:47:45,050
okay we should be probably 1200 feet

2443
02:47:49,250 --> 02:47:46,560
right now

2444
02:47:51,290 --> 02:47:49,260
entering a thousand feet

2445
02:47:54,230 --> 02:47:51,300
probably 800 feet right there and then

2446
02:47:56,770 --> 02:47:54,240
there's your 600. oh

2447
02:47:59,270 --> 02:47:56,780
well now

2448
02:48:01,510 --> 02:47:59,280
this rocket has an experience all the

2449
02:48:03,110 --> 02:48:01,520
emotions

2450
02:48:04,809 --> 02:48:03,120
[Music]

2451
02:48:23,590 --> 02:48:04,819
State got caught

2452
02:48:28,490 --> 02:48:25,910
being told to hear some

2453
02:48:47,270 --> 02:48:28,500
aircraft eastbound or coming from the

2454
02:48:47,280 --> 02:48:51,349
I think it's just the microphone okay

2455
02:48:56,090 --> 02:48:52,610
okay

2456
02:48:59,450 --> 02:48:56,100
we have cylons this is

2457
02:49:00,410 --> 02:48:59,460
this is um Iowa State University in Ames

2458
02:49:02,990 --> 02:49:00,420
Iowa

2459
02:49:05,870 --> 02:49:03,000
the team did seem very excited oh yeah

2460
02:49:07,790 --> 02:49:05,880
we're here oh that's a little better now

2461
02:49:10,190 --> 02:49:07,800
they're a little more excited the name

2462
02:49:13,130 --> 02:49:10,200
of this rocket is Craig Square I'd love

2463
02:49:17,050 --> 02:49:13,140
to hear the background on Craig this is

2464
02:49:19,429 --> 02:49:17,060
a 24.1 pound rocket 4.75 inch diameter

2465
02:49:21,710 --> 02:49:19,439
8.6 feet tall

2466
02:49:25,429 --> 02:49:21,720
so this rocket if you didn't see is a

2467
02:49:29,570 --> 02:49:25,439
fully 3D painted rocket made out of petg

2468
02:49:32,210 --> 02:49:29,580
I mean top to bottom fully 3D printed

2469
02:49:35,570 --> 02:49:32,220
the name of the experiment information

2470
02:49:37,969 --> 02:49:35,580
is called the lunker it is a centrally

2471
02:49:41,570 --> 02:49:37,979
rotating stepper motor

2472
02:49:44,090 --> 02:49:41,580
that picks up the that picks the utmost

2473
02:49:46,730 --> 02:49:44,100
facing door as a linear actuator that

2474
02:49:48,710 --> 02:49:46,740
pushes the camera out and a Servo that

2475
02:49:49,210 --> 02:49:48,720
rotates the camera for different

2476
02:49:50,809 --> 02:49:49,220
pictures

2477
02:49:54,730 --> 02:49:50,819
[Music]

2478
02:49:57,710 --> 02:49:54,740
and so this rocket is flying on Aerotek

2479
02:50:09,050 --> 02:49:57,720
k780 Redline

2480
02:50:15,590 --> 02:50:11,990
a hold for a moment

2481
02:50:18,170 --> 02:50:15,600
okay we're being told to continue

2482
02:50:21,530 --> 02:50:18,180
okay so then this rocket is um again

2483
02:50:24,050 --> 02:50:21,540
flying on Aerotek k780 Redline should go

2484
02:50:26,210 --> 02:50:24,060
4 500 feet and I did notice looking at

2485
02:50:28,309 --> 02:50:26,220
the rocket it doesn't have the payload

2486
02:50:29,570 --> 02:50:28,319
doors that open like a cuckoo clock but

2487
02:50:30,770 --> 02:50:29,580
they wouldn't call it the cuckoo clock

2488
02:50:33,110 --> 02:50:30,780
technology

2489
02:50:35,330 --> 02:50:33,120
and I also did notice with the 3D

2490
02:50:36,770 --> 02:50:35,340
printed rocket they actually printed it

2491
02:50:38,690 --> 02:50:36,780
where it needed very minimal pulse

2492
02:50:40,910 --> 02:50:38,700
production so when they 3D printed it it

2493
02:50:42,530 --> 02:50:40,920
had The Notches already in it it had the

2494
02:50:45,050 --> 02:50:42,540
or the screws to go right in so

2495
02:50:47,210 --> 02:50:45,060
it's pretty clever how the team had that

2496
02:50:49,490 --> 02:50:47,220
all prepared and ready to go they have a

2497
02:50:51,770 --> 02:50:49,500
total of 12 team members and eight of

2498
02:50:56,510 --> 02:50:51,780
them are here today

2499
02:50:58,250 --> 02:50:56,520
okay so this is on pad number 22. the

2500
02:51:01,070 --> 02:50:58,260
correct squared rocket we have a clear

2501
02:51:04,849 --> 02:51:01,080
sky we have a clear range we're ready to

2502
02:51:16,330 --> 02:51:04,859
see some 3D print can go in five four

2503
02:51:28,969 --> 02:51:22,070
in five four three two one ignition

2504
02:51:35,090 --> 02:51:31,910
nice straight up boost on that one

2505
02:51:36,770 --> 02:51:35,100
the fully 3D printed rocket

2506
02:51:38,090 --> 02:51:36,780
I think they're trying to go for the 3D

2507
02:51:40,730 --> 02:51:38,100
print award

2508
02:51:46,070 --> 02:51:40,740
maybe I don't know

2509
02:51:46,080 --> 02:51:56,710
foreign

2510
02:52:04,969 --> 02:51:59,630
550 feet I don't give themselves a lot

2511
02:52:09,710 --> 02:52:07,490
and then the lunker is a very complex

2512
02:52:12,050 --> 02:52:09,720
system so when it lands the door will

2513
02:52:15,710 --> 02:52:12,060
open and then we'll take the various

2514
02:52:15,720 --> 02:52:21,110
so just now right below the Sun

2515
02:52:26,150 --> 02:52:22,910
could be about a thousand feet now

2516
02:52:27,889 --> 02:52:26,160
probably 800 feet

2517
02:52:33,290 --> 02:52:27,899
there it is

2518
02:52:37,429 --> 02:52:36,290
now the team's excited

2519
02:52:39,469 --> 02:52:37,439
they're just kind of like whatever

2520
02:52:53,990 --> 02:52:39,479
what's going on I only gotta run a

2521
02:52:54,000 --> 02:53:20,990
foreign

2522
02:53:26,929 --> 02:53:24,650
so we're gonna go to pad 41. this is a

2523
02:53:28,969 --> 02:53:26,939
Thomas Jefferson High School out of

2524
02:53:31,130 --> 02:53:28,979
Alexandria Virginia

2525
02:53:34,010 --> 02:53:31,140
all right there is no yelling award but

2526
02:53:35,990 --> 02:53:34,020
uh I guess we could try for that so this

2527
02:53:38,929 --> 02:53:36,000
um the team that Alexandria Virginia the

2528
02:53:43,429 --> 02:53:38,939
name of this rocket is Blackbird 23.5

2529
02:53:45,710 --> 02:53:43,439
pounds 5.45 inch diameter 11.4 feet tall

2530
02:53:48,469 --> 02:53:45,720
uh the main goal will be bundled with

2531
02:53:51,469 --> 02:53:48,479
the Jolly logic at apogee and then the

2532
02:53:54,349 --> 02:53:51,479
main will be released is 700 feet

2533
02:53:56,809 --> 02:53:54,359
it does have a contour mapping glider

2534
02:53:59,870 --> 02:53:56,819
not flying today so it is zip tied into

2535
02:54:02,090 --> 02:53:59,880
the payload uh this is the first time in

2536
02:54:05,030 --> 02:54:02,100
10 years this team has been here the

2537
02:54:06,830 --> 02:54:05,040
Rockets won five times previously sad

2538
02:54:08,090 --> 02:54:06,840
not to play the glider but we'll be back

2539
02:54:11,870 --> 02:54:08,100
next year

2540
02:54:13,670 --> 02:54:11,880
they've used 10 plus pounds of Balsa and

2541
02:54:15,349 --> 02:54:13,680
everyone knows how light Balsa is so

2542
02:54:17,870 --> 02:54:15,359
that's probably like a semi-load of just

2543
02:54:19,969 --> 02:54:17,880
Balsa when they were building these

2544
02:54:23,690 --> 02:54:19,979
different various gliders

2545
02:54:26,510 --> 02:54:23,700
that this rocket is flying on a Aerotech

2546
02:54:28,969 --> 02:54:26,520
k828

2547
02:54:31,070 --> 02:54:28,979
um fast Jack should go about 5 000 feet

2548
02:54:32,929 --> 02:54:31,080
I believe they probably bought the last

2549
02:54:35,590 --> 02:54:32,939
of the 828s I don't know if they even

2550
02:54:39,349 --> 02:54:35,600
make those Motors anymore

2551
02:54:41,389 --> 02:54:39,359
they also had a unique way to uh oh yeah

2552
02:54:42,889 --> 02:54:41,399
with this team so they did paint the

2553
02:54:44,330 --> 02:54:42,899
rocket you know when you have a house

2554
02:54:45,950 --> 02:54:44,340
that's inside the house you paint the

2555
02:54:48,170 --> 02:54:45,960
wall you just add another layer to it

2556
02:54:49,790 --> 02:54:48,180
and add another layer to it this team

2557
02:54:51,769 --> 02:54:49,800
painted their rocket that way so I guess

2558
02:54:54,110 --> 02:54:51,779
the indoor house paint technology they

2559
02:54:55,790 --> 02:54:54,120
just threw 50 layers of paint on it and

2560
02:54:57,889 --> 02:54:55,800
that's how they were able to decide what

2561
02:54:59,510 --> 02:54:57,899
the rocket was going to look like they

2562
02:55:01,070 --> 02:54:59,520
bought all the ball so that was in the

2563
02:55:03,830 --> 02:55:01,080
area including all of it from Hobby

2564
02:55:09,230 --> 02:55:07,309
okay we're clear on pad 41 clear sky

2565
02:55:13,790 --> 02:55:09,240
clear range we're gonna watch the

2566
02:55:19,190 --> 02:55:13,800
Blackbird in five four three two one

2567
02:55:23,630 --> 02:55:20,809
nice boost

2568
02:55:25,849 --> 02:55:23,640
I don't think that's going to make it to

2569
02:55:29,450 --> 02:55:25,859
5 000 feet though

2570
02:55:33,769 --> 02:55:31,550
barking over

2571
02:55:36,769 --> 02:55:33,779
there's an event

2572
02:56:08,030 --> 02:55:36,779
okay drug is out

2573
02:56:15,230 --> 02:56:10,670
okay we're probably about 1500 feet

2574
02:56:15,240 --> 02:56:21,469
yep

2575
02:56:27,650 --> 02:56:25,309
they're probably a thousand feet there

2576
02:56:29,210 --> 02:56:27,660
so it should have a main parachute does

2577
02:56:31,429 --> 02:56:29,220
have a glider inside but it's not

2578
02:56:35,210 --> 02:56:31,439
releasing the glider

2579
02:56:42,410 --> 02:56:38,410
all right onto two separate pieces so

2580
02:56:45,889 --> 02:56:44,150
the golf clapping over there okay it's

2581
02:56:48,530 --> 02:56:45,899
gonna be pretty refined yeah nice work

2582
02:56:51,650 --> 02:56:48,540
all right

2583
02:56:55,010 --> 02:56:51,660
okay now we're continuing on to pad 42.

2584
02:56:56,690 --> 02:56:55,020
we have swamp launch rocket team at the

2585
02:56:59,870 --> 02:56:56,700
University of Florida Gainesville

2586
02:57:03,950 --> 02:57:02,510
that sequin hats all they're excited the

2587
02:57:08,590 --> 02:57:03,960
name of this rocket is called Florida

2588
02:57:12,849 --> 02:57:08,600
man it's 26.75 pounds 4 inch in diameter

2589
02:57:17,150 --> 02:57:12,859
9.6 feet tall the expected altitude is 4

2590
02:57:18,530 --> 02:57:17,160
975 feet on the Aerotech l-1090 this

2591
02:57:20,929 --> 02:57:18,540
does have the experiment information

2592
02:57:24,110 --> 02:57:20,939
it's called the investigator with the

2593
02:57:26,929 --> 02:57:24,120
capital G Florida Gators uh there's

2594
02:57:29,769 --> 02:57:26,939
three independent cameras one deploys

2595
02:57:33,290 --> 02:57:29,779
based on the landing orientation

2596
02:57:35,990 --> 02:57:33,300
detected by the IMU

2597
02:57:37,969 --> 02:57:36,000
I had to ask what does Florida man mean

2598
02:57:39,769 --> 02:57:37,979
because I didn't understand that well I

2599
02:57:42,530 --> 02:57:39,779
learned Whenever there was a weird news

2600
02:57:45,490 --> 02:57:42,540
story or something weird and unusual the

2601
02:57:48,170 --> 02:57:45,500
headline usually starts with Florida man

2602
02:57:50,389 --> 02:57:48,180
so that's what they were going with

2603
02:57:52,969 --> 02:57:50,399
the paint scheme was voted on by the

2604
02:57:54,550 --> 02:57:52,979
teams they're using school colors and

2605
02:57:57,590 --> 02:57:54,560
sponsors and they also wanted to

2606
02:57:59,750 --> 02:57:57,600
integrate some of the SLS uh the paint

2607
02:58:01,910 --> 02:57:59,760
paint into it they also did have a

2608
02:58:04,130 --> 02:58:01,920
texturized finish to slow the rocket

2609
02:58:05,690 --> 02:58:04,140
down at the very beginning of a project

2610
02:58:07,309 --> 02:58:05,700
they didn't have

2611
02:58:08,750 --> 02:58:07,319
they did not have a lot of funding but

2612
02:58:10,730 --> 02:58:08,760
they closer to the end they got much

2613
02:58:13,670 --> 02:58:10,740
more funding

2614
02:58:16,309 --> 02:58:13,680
so they are pretty excited about that

2615
02:58:18,769 --> 02:58:16,319
I also learned in their sub scalar full

2616
02:58:21,469 --> 02:58:18,779
scale flight the rocket did land in a

2617
02:58:23,450 --> 02:58:21,479
higher than normal final orientation may

2618
02:58:24,969 --> 02:58:23,460
or may not have landed in a tree took

2619
02:58:27,710 --> 02:58:24,979
them over a week to get it out of

2620
02:58:30,170 --> 02:58:27,720
century they even tried to use a bow and

2621
02:58:31,910 --> 02:58:30,180
arrow to get the rocket out couldn't get

2622
02:58:34,550 --> 02:58:31,920
it out but they did eventually get that

2623
02:58:36,650 --> 02:58:34,560
rocket recovered

2624
02:58:39,230 --> 02:58:36,660
so we are being held right now or being

2625
02:58:41,090 --> 02:58:39,240
told there's a aircraft oh yep there it

2626
02:58:43,309 --> 02:58:41,100
is there's aircraft flying right right

2627
02:59:04,730 --> 02:58:43,319
in front of us hold up the aircraft

2628
02:59:04,740 --> 02:59:17,090
reported

2629
02:59:38,570 --> 02:59:19,130
signal Rockets

2630
02:59:44,450 --> 02:59:41,929
okay playing is clear so we're gonna go

2631
02:59:46,490 --> 02:59:44,460
to pad 42 Florida man it's always a fun

2632
02:59:49,429 --> 02:59:46,500
way to start the news article so we have

2633
02:59:52,130 --> 02:59:49,439
a clear sky we have a clear range on

2634
03:00:06,469 --> 02:59:52,140
Florida man we are going to go in five

2635
03:00:11,269 --> 03:00:09,170
so that one should go 4 600 feet with

2636
03:00:16,070 --> 03:00:11,279
the main set for 600.

2637
03:00:16,080 --> 03:00:19,730
and over there is an event

2638
03:00:19,740 --> 03:00:42,830
back up to the main apogee

2639
03:01:03,410 --> 03:00:44,690
yeah it's still a few thousand feet up

2640
03:01:09,530 --> 03:01:05,150
okay we should be about a thousand feet

2641
03:01:13,900 --> 03:01:11,929
probably 700 feet

2642
03:01:14,520 --> 03:01:13,910
Now's the Time for the parachute

2643
03:01:18,889 --> 03:01:14,530
[Music]

2644
03:01:21,469 --> 03:01:18,899
[Applause]

2645
03:01:21,479 --> 03:01:26,809
oh

2646
03:01:30,950 --> 03:01:29,150
just heard the team

2647
03:01:32,210 --> 03:01:30,960
they could kill out their chance sound

2648
03:01:34,429 --> 03:01:32,220
like someone didn't even know what it

2649
03:01:41,210 --> 03:01:34,439
was so they're just kind of guessing

2650
03:01:47,330 --> 03:01:43,809
okay continuing on the pad 43 this is

2651
03:01:48,710 --> 03:01:47,340
Carnegie Mellon Rocky Commander Carnegie

2652
03:01:50,269 --> 03:01:48,720
Mellon University out of Pittsburgh

2653
03:01:53,269 --> 03:01:50,279
Pennsylvania

2654
03:01:57,710 --> 03:01:53,279
the name of this rocket is an acronym

2655
03:02:00,110 --> 03:01:57,720
called bagpiper 40 East 42.6 pounds six

2656
03:02:03,370 --> 03:02:00,120
inch in diameter 10 and a half feet tall

2657
03:02:06,670 --> 03:02:03,380
so the name goes to ballistic

2658
03:02:09,790 --> 03:02:06,680
aerodynamic grounded

2659
03:02:12,710 --> 03:02:09,800
photographic imager and precisely

2660
03:02:14,510 --> 03:02:12,720
engineered rocket I think they're just

2661
03:02:16,010 --> 03:02:14,520
trying to back into the name back Piper

2662
03:02:18,170 --> 03:02:16,020
and just start throwing some words to it

2663
03:02:20,290 --> 03:02:18,180
they have another acronym for the

2664
03:02:24,230 --> 03:02:20,300
experiment information called scan

2665
03:02:26,690 --> 03:02:24,240
scanning camera aiding navigation this

2666
03:02:29,210 --> 03:02:26,700
rotates on a lead screw to extend then

2667
03:02:32,750 --> 03:02:29,220
uses a Servo gimbal to take photos upon

2668
03:02:38,510 --> 03:02:35,650
and this rocket is flying on an Aerotech

2669
03:02:41,630 --> 03:02:38,520
l1390 Mojave green

2670
03:02:43,849 --> 03:02:41,640
should go about 4 500 feet this rocket

2671
03:02:46,550 --> 03:02:43,859
was pretty much all carbon fiber except

2672
03:02:48,769 --> 03:02:46,560
the nose cone and part of the fins and

2673
03:02:51,590 --> 03:02:48,779
for those that don't know the name

2674
03:02:53,830 --> 03:02:51,600
bagpiper as it goes to Carnegie Mellon

2675
03:02:56,210 --> 03:02:53,840
University's Scottish Heritage

2676
03:02:58,790 --> 03:02:56,220
influences some of the school's beloved

2677
03:03:01,429 --> 03:02:58,800
traditions some of these activities are

2678
03:03:03,889 --> 03:03:01,439
homegrown I did also learn that the

2679
03:03:06,469 --> 03:03:03,899
president made an executive decision on

2680
03:03:08,630 --> 03:03:06,479
the paint Scheme it had these colors

2681
03:03:10,010 --> 03:03:08,640
just lying around and said that's close

2682
03:03:10,910 --> 03:03:10,020
enough to school colors we'll just go

2683
03:03:12,469 --> 03:03:10,920
with it

2684
03:03:16,370 --> 03:03:12,479
so we're going to launch this one on pad

2685
03:03:18,889 --> 03:03:16,380
43 the back Piper we have a clear sky we

2686
03:03:26,410 --> 03:03:18,899
have a clear range we're going in five

2687
03:03:38,269 --> 03:03:29,389
all right

2688
03:03:38,279 --> 03:03:41,510
starting to Arc over

2689
03:03:47,210 --> 03:03:44,510
there's an event

2690
03:03:51,650 --> 03:03:47,220
drunk parachute is out

2691
03:04:04,190 --> 03:03:52,969
I think they're just waiting to make

2692
03:04:09,290 --> 03:04:07,790
and for this one the main is set for 550

2693
03:04:34,550 --> 03:04:09,300
feet

2694
03:04:37,990 --> 03:04:35,530
all right

2695
03:04:39,950 --> 03:04:38,000
[Music]

2696
03:04:41,510 --> 03:04:39,960
now the team is a little bit more

2697
03:04:43,670 --> 03:04:41,520
satisfied

2698
03:04:45,230 --> 03:04:43,680
looks like they're no much blanket that

2699
03:04:47,389 --> 03:04:45,240
was going for a little different ride so

2700
03:04:49,730 --> 03:04:47,399
make sure you grab that on the way on

2701
03:04:52,550 --> 03:04:49,740
the way upon recovery

2702
03:04:55,130 --> 03:04:52,560
okay on pad number 60

2703
03:04:59,389 --> 03:04:55,140
this is Oregon State rocketry team

2704
03:05:04,610 --> 03:05:02,050
oh I don't know what that was but okay

2705
03:05:07,190 --> 03:05:04,620
this is an Oregon State University out

2706
03:05:11,889 --> 03:05:07,200
of Corvallis Oregon name of this rocket

2707
03:05:14,570 --> 03:05:11,899
is overkill 42 pounds 6.17 inch diameter

2708
03:05:17,570 --> 03:05:14,580
7.10 feet tall

2709
03:05:19,969 --> 03:05:17,580
the vehicle notes is designed made by

2710
03:05:22,429 --> 03:05:19,979
five year old

2711
03:05:26,150 --> 03:05:22,439
oh the design is done by five-year-old

2712
03:05:28,910 --> 03:05:26,160
girl from stem design camp and this was

2713
03:05:32,630 --> 03:05:28,920
held by a team it has eight members the

2714
03:05:36,590 --> 03:05:32,640
team drove 40 hours from Oregon 2500

2715
03:05:40,550 --> 03:05:36,600
miles so they're pretty exhausted

2716
03:05:44,690 --> 03:05:40,560
payload is called goop the gravity

2717
03:05:46,610 --> 03:05:44,700
operated oblong payload oh yes and the

2718
03:05:49,670 --> 03:05:46,620
team is wearing green and Hawaiian

2719
03:05:51,530 --> 03:05:49,680
shirts so if you can't see them

2720
03:05:54,170 --> 03:05:51,540
you're not missing much no I'm just

2721
03:05:59,510 --> 03:05:54,180
kidding they'll be this rocket is also

2722
03:06:02,630 --> 03:05:59,520
flying on an Aerotech l1520 Blue Thunder

2723
03:06:05,210 --> 03:06:02,640
it should go about 4 700 feet I was also

2724
03:06:07,790 --> 03:06:05,220
told it has some Weeble wobble type

2725
03:06:10,190 --> 03:06:07,800
technology as payload it always writes

2726
03:06:13,309 --> 03:06:10,200
itself upward with camera and the camera

2727
03:06:15,230 --> 03:06:13,319
is spring loaded and I did learn about

2728
03:06:17,030 --> 03:06:15,240
how they did do the paint design they

2729
03:06:19,910 --> 03:06:17,040
did it like crowdsourced via social

2730
03:06:22,490 --> 03:06:19,920
media and Alice was the winner it was

2731
03:06:24,889 --> 03:06:22,500
painted by a local painter

2732
03:06:26,269 --> 03:06:24,899
um they are also on the nose cone number

2733
03:06:28,910 --> 03:06:26,279
three so I don't know what happened to

2734
03:06:30,590 --> 03:06:28,920
nosco number one and number two

2735
03:06:33,110 --> 03:06:30,600
but they're on number three right now

2736
03:06:36,290 --> 03:06:33,120
and then this and the name oberkill is

2737
03:06:40,130 --> 03:06:36,300
over everything it's over designed over

2738
03:06:41,990 --> 03:06:40,140
engineered overkilled over easy oh wait

2739
03:06:44,330 --> 03:06:42,000
no those are eggs never mind okay and

2740
03:06:47,510 --> 03:06:44,340
then this rocket also they told me has

2741
03:06:49,070 --> 03:06:47,520
been snow tested it's been it is landed

2742
03:06:50,690 --> 03:06:49,080
in stone been dragged across the field

2743
03:06:52,490 --> 03:06:50,700
with something you want to plow feel

2744
03:06:54,769 --> 03:06:52,500
this rocket could probably do it because

2745
03:06:56,990 --> 03:06:54,779
the fins are that strong

2746
03:06:59,330 --> 03:06:57,000
and then yes the team has the official

2747
03:07:02,630 --> 03:06:59,340
tropical printed shirts with the team

2748
03:07:04,610 --> 03:07:02,640
has to go with pad number 60 we have a

2749
03:07:08,330 --> 03:07:04,620
clear sky we have a clear range we're

2750
03:07:17,929 --> 03:07:08,340
going to launch in five four three two

2751
03:07:24,110 --> 03:07:21,290
can you still hear the echo off of it

2752
03:07:26,750 --> 03:07:24,120
still under the clouds I can see it

2753
03:07:28,450 --> 03:07:26,760
arcing over

2754
03:07:36,550 --> 03:07:28,460
there's a parachute

2755
03:07:36,560 --> 03:07:46,690
what do you mean except for 650 feet

2756
03:07:46,700 --> 03:07:52,670
4782 feet there they predicted

2757
03:07:52,680 --> 03:08:04,429
still probably a couple thousand feet up

2758
03:08:04,439 --> 03:08:08,929
yeah about a thousand feet now

2759
03:08:12,830 --> 03:08:11,510
or 700 so we should see the main any

2760
03:08:20,330 --> 03:08:12,840
minute now

2761
03:08:25,670 --> 03:08:24,110
they are very excited

2762
03:08:27,230 --> 03:08:25,680
now they're just yelling I don't know

2763
03:08:33,420 --> 03:08:27,240
what they're yelling but they are that

2764
03:08:33,430 --> 03:08:39,190
[Music]

2765
03:08:45,349 --> 03:08:41,870
patch 61 we have the rocketry

2766
03:08:48,769 --> 03:08:45,359
association at Auburn University this is

2767
03:08:51,170 --> 03:08:48,779
Auburn University Auburn Alabama

2768
03:08:55,389 --> 03:08:51,180
name of this rocket is four brighter

2769
03:09:01,969 --> 03:08:58,490
20 pound swing there six inch in

2770
03:09:04,730 --> 03:09:01,979
diameter 10.4 feet tall

2771
03:09:06,830 --> 03:09:04,740
for the experimentation information is

2772
03:09:10,429 --> 03:09:06,840
the R2D2 camera

2773
03:09:13,330 --> 03:09:10,439
that deploys after landing has got lots

2774
03:09:18,469 --> 03:09:13,340
of acronyms for the system that is the

2775
03:09:20,870 --> 03:09:18,479
MMORPG the raps and then the cap

2776
03:09:22,790 --> 03:09:20,880
I also did notice with this team yep

2777
03:09:25,070 --> 03:09:22,800
it's the camera like pops up and down

2778
03:09:31,870 --> 03:09:25,080
you think about R2D2 on the X-Wing it

2779
03:09:37,730 --> 03:09:35,389
[Music]

2780
03:09:39,769 --> 03:09:37,740
the rock is also landed in a ditch but

2781
03:09:41,990 --> 03:09:39,779
it didn't suffer any damage

2782
03:09:44,210 --> 03:09:42,000
oh yeah so then this team also has my

2783
03:09:46,849 --> 03:09:44,220
buddy solder so father is back so if

2784
03:09:48,769 --> 03:09:46,859
anyone knows yeah he's here

2785
03:09:50,570 --> 03:09:48,779
so I was in the house

2786
03:09:53,690 --> 03:09:50,580
um this team also did compete in another

2787
03:09:55,550 --> 03:09:53,700
argonia Cup this year the Auburn team

2788
03:09:59,510 --> 03:09:55,560
also they were all deep they got 80

2789
03:10:00,889 --> 03:09:59,520
people on the team 36 of them are here I

2790
03:10:03,710 --> 03:10:00,899
think was also really unique with this

2791
03:10:06,769 --> 03:10:03,720
team they also have this rocket painted

2792
03:10:09,050 --> 03:10:06,779
by a nearby local children's hospital by

2793
03:10:11,389 --> 03:10:09,060
the children that are in the hospital so

2794
03:10:13,130 --> 03:10:11,399
that's a really cool neat story to that

2795
03:10:15,349 --> 03:10:13,140
yeah that's why the name of the rocket

2796
03:10:18,349 --> 03:10:15,359
is called four brighter Futures so

2797
03:10:20,990 --> 03:10:18,359
really cool thing there also is Jan

2798
03:10:22,730 --> 03:10:21,000
Davis who is a three-time astronaut she

2799
03:10:25,610 --> 03:10:22,740
is here in the house to witness this

2800
03:10:27,110 --> 03:10:25,620
flight so she's um I'm hearing a couple

2801
03:10:29,510 --> 03:10:27,120
of plots for that so that's pretty cool

2802
03:10:33,590 --> 03:10:29,520
to have her here to witness this flight

2803
03:10:35,150 --> 03:10:33,600
so on pad 61 we are gonna watch this oh

2804
03:10:36,469 --> 03:10:35,160
we're being upward

2805
03:10:39,590 --> 03:10:36,479
good okay

2806
03:10:41,450 --> 03:10:39,600
so four brighter Futures a pad 61 we

2807
03:10:44,990 --> 03:10:41,460
have a clear sky we have a clear range

2808
03:10:50,269 --> 03:10:45,000
we're going to launch in five four three

2809
03:10:50,279 --> 03:11:01,550
good

2810
03:11:01,560 --> 03:11:17,690
so this one should be going to 5400 feet

2811
03:11:22,070 --> 03:11:19,030
oh yeah

2812
03:11:28,969 --> 03:11:22,080
so there's confirmation it is under

2813
03:11:33,769 --> 03:11:31,849
Spence right now

2814
03:11:36,050 --> 03:11:33,779
solder's wondering if he did a good job

2815
03:11:38,690 --> 03:11:36,060
soldering the project

2816
03:11:47,450 --> 03:11:38,700
it's not quite sure so hopefully it

2817
03:11:47,460 --> 03:11:54,410
main on this one is set for 600 feet

2818
03:12:01,969 --> 03:11:56,269
oh there he is

2819
03:12:08,090 --> 03:12:05,389
so some of it's under parachute

2820
03:12:10,610 --> 03:12:08,100
some of it is

2821
03:12:25,309 --> 03:12:10,620
it's testing out its theory of drop

2822
03:12:30,650 --> 03:12:28,250
k-pad 62 we have Spring Grove rocketry

2823
03:12:33,410 --> 03:12:30,660
at a Spring Grove Area

2824
03:12:36,290 --> 03:12:33,420
Pennsylvania oh this is the Springbrook

2825
03:12:40,849 --> 03:12:38,990
the name of this rocket is hyperion

2826
03:12:42,710 --> 03:12:40,859
this one also does not want to reveal

2827
03:12:44,990 --> 03:12:42,720
its weight so it is an unknown weight

2828
03:12:46,190 --> 03:12:45,000
but as four inches in diameter eight

2829
03:12:48,950 --> 03:12:46,200
feet tall

2830
03:12:51,230 --> 03:12:48,960
it does have cameras because they're

2831
03:12:54,710 --> 03:12:51,240
cool I like that as a technical term it

2832
03:12:57,170 --> 03:12:54,720
is cool and they used it is also helps

2833
03:12:58,790 --> 03:12:57,180
it helps for preventing it to weathercon

2834
03:13:00,190 --> 03:12:58,800
under boost

2835
03:13:02,990 --> 03:13:00,200
the the

2836
03:13:05,690 --> 03:13:03,000
experiment information is called Ava it

2837
03:13:13,849 --> 03:13:05,700
is a radio wave that transmits three

2838
03:13:13,859 --> 03:13:25,070
we are going to hold

2839
03:13:25,080 --> 03:13:50,090
it'll hold right for a moment just gotta

2840
03:13:51,360 --> 03:13:51,050
thank you

2841
03:14:16,990 --> 03:13:51,370
[Applause]

2842
03:14:17,000 --> 03:15:41,929
come on

2843
03:15:41,939 --> 03:16:59,880
foreign

2844
03:16:59,890 --> 03:17:34,070
[Music]

2845
03:17:37,969 --> 03:17:36,170
so just a quick announcement or update

2846
03:17:39,590 --> 03:17:37,979
so

2847
03:17:42,590 --> 03:17:39,600
I got a little warm down there at the

2848
03:17:44,330 --> 03:17:42,600
launch Cut after the rocket flew

2849
03:17:46,550 --> 03:17:44,340
and it actually

2850
03:17:48,469 --> 03:17:46,560
scorched some of the cords so we can't

2851
03:17:50,630 --> 03:17:48,479
watch any of the other Rockets so we

2852
03:17:53,510 --> 03:17:50,640
have to switch out the cables right now

2853
03:17:56,030 --> 03:17:53,520
just be a few minute delay as we update

2854
03:17:58,130 --> 03:17:56,040
the cables and get all that going and

2855
03:18:00,429 --> 03:17:58,140
fixed it repaired so we can

2856
03:18:03,650 --> 03:18:00,439
launch the other

2857
03:18:05,870 --> 03:18:03,660
side rockets on this in this group for

2858
03:18:59,630 --> 03:18:05,880
this volley so we'll have to stand by

2859
03:18:59,640 --> 03:19:02,410
earlier

2860
03:19:08,330 --> 03:19:04,790
make a quick announcement for Michael

2861
03:19:10,910 --> 03:19:08,340
bochner you have your car parked in a

2862
03:19:13,190 --> 03:19:10,920
not good place so we want to make sure

2863
03:19:14,870 --> 03:19:13,200
it's moved or it gets moved for you I

2864
03:19:18,349 --> 03:19:14,880
don't think you want to be moved for you

2865
03:19:20,630 --> 03:19:18,359
you get the luxury of paying an inbound

2866
03:19:22,730 --> 03:19:20,640
tax probably so you have a gray

2867
03:19:24,710 --> 03:19:22,740
Highlander grades right out of

2868
03:19:28,190 --> 03:19:24,720
Highlander Michael bochner please move

2869
03:19:29,750 --> 03:19:28,200
your vehicle another reminder is full

2870
03:19:33,230 --> 03:19:29,760
warm out make sure you drink your water

foreign

2878
03:20:37,990 --> 03:20:36,050
excellent help with the National

2879
03:20:39,889 --> 03:20:38,000
Association of rocketry our Nar

2880
03:20:41,870 --> 03:20:39,899
efficients running these launch

2881
03:20:43,730 --> 03:20:41,880
operations safety's number one they're

2882
03:20:45,110 --> 03:20:43,740
out there making sure that everything is

2883
03:20:47,929 --> 03:20:45,120
done safely and that we can get these

2884
03:20:49,309 --> 03:20:47,939
other rockets in volleytube up there as

2885
03:20:51,170 --> 03:20:49,319
they are taking care of everything

2886
03:20:53,269 --> 03:20:51,180
downrange we are going to talk to some

2887
03:20:55,610 --> 03:20:53,279
teams and first up is Temple University

2888
03:20:56,990 --> 03:20:55,620
now you guys flew earlier today how did

2889
03:20:57,710 --> 03:20:57,000
the launch go

2890
03:20:59,389 --> 03:20:57,720
um

2891
03:21:01,010 --> 03:20:59,399
okay we everything

2892
03:21:02,630 --> 03:21:01,020
where our main parachute didn't come out

2893
03:21:03,830 --> 03:21:02,640
of this one effect

2894
03:21:05,929 --> 03:21:03,840
um we tried a little new configuration

2895
03:21:06,769 --> 03:21:05,939
of folding it and we probably should

2896
03:21:09,230 --> 03:21:06,779
have just stuck with our original

2897
03:21:10,550 --> 03:21:09,240
methods that worked twice before but you

2898
03:21:12,290 --> 03:21:10,560
know you live and you learn so we know

2899
03:21:14,450 --> 03:21:12,300
next time so you've gone out and gotten

2900
03:21:16,250 --> 03:21:14,460
the rocky what kind of condition is the

2901
03:21:18,410 --> 03:21:16,260
rocket in after remain not coming out

2902
03:21:19,849 --> 03:21:18,420
the airframe is okay and we think most

2903
03:21:21,349 --> 03:21:19,859
of our electronics are good but all of

2904
03:21:23,809 --> 03:21:21,359
our 3D printed Parts didn't make it so

2905
03:21:26,450 --> 03:21:23,819
but that's expected we hate to hear that

2906
03:21:29,210 --> 03:21:26,460
so talk to us what's up next now you've

2907
03:21:31,190 --> 03:21:29,220
got the rocket back going through seeing

2908
03:21:32,750 --> 03:21:31,200
exactly what happened I would imagine

2909
03:21:34,309 --> 03:21:32,760
um what's up next for you after you've

2910
03:21:35,630 --> 03:21:34,319
flown the rocket

2911
03:21:36,769 --> 03:21:35,640
um that's a great question we do have an

2912
03:21:38,510 --> 03:21:36,779
extra motor and they're showing the

2913
03:21:41,269 --> 03:21:38,520
launches around us so hopefully we can

2914
03:21:43,429 --> 03:21:41,279
get a third or a fourth light in

2915
03:21:44,929 --> 03:21:43,439
um give it another go uh as far as like

2916
03:21:46,250 --> 03:21:44,939
Temple University goes we would love to

2917
03:21:47,870 --> 03:21:46,260
make this a club it's just a senior

2918
03:21:49,190 --> 03:21:47,880
design team so just continuing the

2919
03:21:50,389 --> 03:21:49,200
effort would be great

2920
03:21:52,490 --> 03:21:50,399
um so we're going to push for that until

2921
03:21:54,050 --> 03:21:52,500
the end of the semester so you mentioned

2922
03:21:56,150 --> 03:21:54,060
it being a senior Design Team all of you

2923
03:21:57,769 --> 03:21:56,160
guys are new to student launch what has

2924
03:21:59,690 --> 03:21:57,779
this experience been like coming to

2925
03:22:02,030 --> 03:21:59,700
Rocket City USA what has that been like

2926
03:22:03,410 --> 03:22:02,040
for you all uh it's really cool um I did

2927
03:22:05,750 --> 03:22:03,420
this competition in high school so I've

2928
03:22:07,130 --> 03:22:05,760
been to Huntsville once um but I was way

2929
03:22:08,269 --> 03:22:07,140
more involved in this competition so it

2930
03:22:09,469 --> 03:22:08,279
was great to see all the work that has

2931
03:22:11,150 --> 03:22:09,479
been involved and it was awesome to

2932
03:22:12,610 --> 03:22:11,160
bring these guys along a lot of them are

2933
03:22:14,870 --> 03:22:12,620
some of my closest friends that I've

2934
03:22:18,290 --> 03:22:14,880
known all through school

2935
03:22:20,750 --> 03:22:18,300
um so yeah it's NASA puts on this and

2936
03:22:22,130 --> 03:22:20,760
it's a great excuse for us to do a bunch

2937
03:22:24,050 --> 03:22:22,140
of design work which is really important

2938
03:22:26,330 --> 03:22:24,060
you know I think there's some of the

2939
03:22:27,650 --> 03:22:26,340
lack of that so any excuse to be able to

2940
03:22:29,330 --> 03:22:27,660
build something design something

2941
03:22:31,130 --> 03:22:29,340
fabricate through the whole process is

2942
03:22:33,050 --> 03:22:31,140
really awesome for our students so lots

2943
03:22:34,610 --> 03:22:33,060
of great skills as we take you all

2944
03:22:36,110 --> 03:22:34,620
through that engineering really the

2945
03:22:37,610 --> 03:22:36,120
entire engineering life cycle because it

2946
03:22:39,469 --> 03:22:37,620
does start back in August with their

2947
03:22:41,389 --> 03:22:39,479
proposal anybody back home you want to

2948
03:22:42,769 --> 03:22:41,399
thank anybody want to say hi to yeah we

2949
03:22:44,630 --> 03:22:42,779
want to give a big shout out to Blake

2950
03:22:46,730 --> 03:22:44,640
Bray for letting us use our 3D printer a

2951
03:22:48,290 --> 03:22:46,740
lot there's a lot of senior design

2952
03:22:50,090 --> 03:22:48,300
projects and he snuck Us in everywhere

2953
03:22:51,410 --> 03:22:50,100
he could and then obviously our

2954
03:22:53,090 --> 03:22:51,420
sponsoring City construction company

2955
03:22:55,130 --> 03:22:53,100
they helped us out of town with the

2956
03:22:57,110 --> 03:22:55,140
finances and then our advisor is Dr

2957
03:22:59,870 --> 03:22:57,120
Cavallo and Dr Philip hackham and our

2958
03:23:01,969 --> 03:22:59,880
coordinator Dr Ravi and Dr Reggio that's

2959
03:23:03,950 --> 03:23:01,979
awesome so everybody at Temple You've

2960
03:23:07,550 --> 03:23:03,960
seen their rockets fly we want to see

2961
03:23:09,229 --> 03:23:07,560
you guys at next year's 2020 2024 NASA

2962
03:23:11,389 --> 03:23:09,239
student launch cup hey thank you all so

2963
03:23:13,429 --> 03:23:11,399
much for coming out we loved having you

2964
03:23:16,309 --> 03:23:13,439
um sorry about the parachute but you'll

2965
03:23:19,309 --> 03:23:16,319
get it get it so that is that is the

2966
03:23:21,889 --> 03:23:19,319
business we're all in so that is Temple

2967
03:23:23,870 --> 03:23:21,899
the owls with their rocket play we're

2968
03:23:25,929 --> 03:23:23,880
gonna bring in Lane who's got our next

2969
03:23:29,750 --> 03:23:25,939
team great job Temple

2970
03:23:31,130 --> 03:23:29,760
hey how's everything going everything is

2971
03:23:32,809 --> 03:23:31,140
going great we've had some amazing

2972
03:23:34,190 --> 03:23:32,819
launches of course we had a little bit

2973
03:23:35,510 --> 03:23:34,200
of a fire over there but it's put out

2974
03:23:36,769 --> 03:23:35,520
now

2975
03:23:38,630 --> 03:23:36,779
um they're trying to get those Rockets

2976
03:23:40,969 --> 03:23:38,640
set back up but now we have Virginia

2977
03:23:43,849 --> 03:23:40,979
Tech with us

2978
03:23:46,250 --> 03:23:43,859
and as you can see gorgeous we have one

2979
03:23:49,370 --> 03:23:46,260
of the longest if not the tallest rocket

2980
03:23:51,229 --> 03:23:49,380
here today so hi I you're the team

2981
03:23:53,030 --> 03:23:51,239
spokesperson so please introduce

2982
03:23:54,530 --> 03:23:53,040
yourself and tell us your major I'm Cody

2983
03:23:56,330 --> 03:23:54,540
Jones I'm a senior in aerospace

2984
03:23:58,309 --> 03:23:56,340
engineering at Virginia Tech awesome

2985
03:24:00,349 --> 03:23:58,319
okay so tell me about the length of this

2986
03:24:03,710 --> 03:24:00,359
guy how how tall is it so this guy is

2987
03:24:05,389 --> 03:24:03,720
146 inches from the booster tip here at

2988
03:24:07,370 --> 03:24:05,399
the nozzle all the way to the nose cone

2989
03:24:09,349 --> 03:24:07,380
which in feet that's about 12 foot 2

2990
03:24:10,610 --> 03:24:09,359
inches and when it stands on it spins it

2991
03:24:12,349 --> 03:24:10,620
adds about two inches it's like a

2992
03:24:15,590 --> 03:24:12,359
standing on Hills so you get that extra

2993
03:24:17,570 --> 03:24:15,600
two inches you get the ad so yeah so

2994
03:24:19,130 --> 03:24:17,580
reasoning behind making such a tall

2995
03:24:20,570 --> 03:24:19,140
rocket so it's all about using

2996
03:24:22,550 --> 03:24:20,580
commercial off-the-shelf Parts it

2997
03:24:24,349 --> 03:24:22,560
reduces any type of mismanagement we

2998
03:24:25,670 --> 03:24:24,359
have so when we make our own body tubes

2999
03:24:27,769 --> 03:24:25,680
there's always that risk that they might

3000
03:24:29,570 --> 03:24:27,779
explode on the pad or up in the air due

3001
03:24:31,190 --> 03:24:29,580
to any type of mishap so it's a lot

3002
03:24:32,510 --> 03:24:31,200
safer for competitions like these where

3003
03:24:34,370 --> 03:24:32,520
there's a lot of public people involved

3004
03:24:35,929 --> 03:24:34,380
that we can just buy manufactured body

3005
03:24:37,250 --> 03:24:35,939
tubes and so when we were making it we

3006
03:24:39,710 --> 03:24:37,260
wanted a four foot and a five foot

3007
03:24:41,330 --> 03:24:39,720
section tube and then we use the Von

3008
03:24:43,309 --> 03:24:41,340
Carmen nose cone which are five to one

3009
03:24:45,469 --> 03:24:43,319
so that means that there's six inches of

3010
03:24:47,450 --> 03:24:45,479
diameter so you times that by five to

3011
03:24:48,950 --> 03:24:47,460
get that ended up being 36 inches from

3012
03:24:51,290 --> 03:24:48,960
the manufacturer which is a little bit

3013
03:24:52,969 --> 03:24:51,300
unfortunate so it did balloon in size a

3014
03:24:54,590 --> 03:24:52,979
little bit so you had nine feet from the

3015
03:24:56,750 --> 03:24:54,600
body tubes and about three feet from the

3016
03:24:58,849 --> 03:24:56,760
nose cone so that's how that size did

3017
03:25:00,229 --> 03:24:58,859
kind of end up it was unfortunate that

3018
03:25:02,809 --> 03:25:00,239
it did get a little heavy because it's

3019
03:25:04,910 --> 03:25:02,819
at 54 pounds now which is a very large

3020
03:25:07,190 --> 03:25:04,920
rocket for this competition you know 54

3021
03:25:10,190 --> 03:25:07,200
pounds off the pad is

3022
03:25:11,330 --> 03:25:10,200
maybe this for second heaviest rocket

3023
03:25:13,010 --> 03:25:11,340
that's in this competition the other

3024
03:25:14,990 --> 03:25:13,020
guys are launching from their home field

3025
03:25:16,969 --> 03:25:15,000
so we're very very lucky that we were

3026
03:25:18,950 --> 03:25:16,979
able to find a parachute that was good

3027
03:25:19,969 --> 03:25:18,960
enough to actually be able to come down

3028
03:25:22,190 --> 03:25:19,979
here and launch and we thank everybody

3029
03:25:23,809 --> 03:25:22,200
at Nasa for allowing us to bring the

3030
03:25:26,090 --> 03:25:23,819
fighting gobbler down here to launch

3031
03:25:29,210 --> 03:25:26,100
yeah absolutely so that's

3032
03:25:32,269 --> 03:25:30,349
there's a

3033
03:25:34,429 --> 03:25:32,279
camera here and it tends to circle

3034
03:25:35,870 --> 03:25:34,439
around the rocket rocket so our our

3035
03:25:37,670 --> 03:25:35,880
camera is a little unique from everybody

3036
03:25:39,290 --> 03:25:37,680
else's payload so our camera is mounted

3037
03:25:40,790 --> 03:25:39,300
externally through the entire flight so

3038
03:25:42,950 --> 03:25:40,800
it's on the outside of the rocket you

3039
03:25:45,050 --> 03:25:42,960
all can kind of see it spin here the

3040
03:25:47,269 --> 03:25:45,060
little guy's nickname is Al so it can

3041
03:25:49,969 --> 03:25:47,279
spin all the way around the body tube

3042
03:25:51,950 --> 03:25:49,979
wherever he's at right now

3043
03:25:53,690 --> 03:25:51,960
sometimes he takes a little bit to roam

3044
03:25:54,950 --> 03:25:53,700
around so you can see him sort of going

3045
03:25:56,809 --> 03:25:54,960
all through that so the body tube is

3046
03:25:58,429 --> 03:25:56,819
actually split entirely up there so it's

3047
03:26:00,590 --> 03:25:58,439
this it's disconnected there's a whole

3048
03:26:02,809 --> 03:26:00,600
inner structure it holds it tight so it

3049
03:26:04,610 --> 03:26:02,819
can run around that it has two angles of

3050
03:26:05,929 --> 03:26:04,620
Freedom so it can rotate this way and

3051
03:26:07,490 --> 03:26:05,939
then rotate that way so there's nothing

3052
03:26:10,070 --> 03:26:07,500
this guy can't see throughout the entire

3053
03:26:11,630 --> 03:26:10,080
launch it's never inside so it has an

3054
03:26:13,490 --> 03:26:11,640
entire flight picture from as soon as

3055
03:26:14,990 --> 03:26:13,500
the Flames turn on at the nozzle all the

3056
03:26:17,570 --> 03:26:15,000
way to when it hits the ground so it

3057
03:26:19,130 --> 03:26:17,580
makes wonderful videos and everybody on

3058
03:26:19,929 --> 03:26:19,140
Twitter and Instagram have loved them so

3059
03:26:22,070 --> 03:26:19,939
far

3060
03:26:23,210 --> 03:26:22,080
we've had a lot of great feedback a lot

3061
03:26:24,889 --> 03:26:23,220
of people at the rocket Fair really

3062
03:26:25,910 --> 03:26:24,899
loved it because even when kids love it

3063
03:26:27,290 --> 03:26:25,920
because it looks like a little animal

3064
03:26:28,910 --> 03:26:27,300
like a little mountain around there

3065
03:26:31,190 --> 03:26:28,920
we've had people asking us to name it

3066
03:26:32,809 --> 03:26:31,200
like Mouse and things but yeah this

3067
03:26:35,030 --> 03:26:32,819
little guy is the owl you can see

3068
03:26:36,290 --> 03:26:35,040
everything oh it's called Owl and what

3069
03:26:38,450 --> 03:26:36,300
do you guys have like a team name

3070
03:26:40,309 --> 03:26:38,460
outside of just Virginia Tech or so

3071
03:26:41,929 --> 03:26:40,319
Virginia Tech rocketry we are just

3072
03:26:43,309 --> 03:26:41,939
Virginia Tech at Virginia Tech there's a

3073
03:26:44,929 --> 03:26:43,319
couple different rocket teams so we are

3074
03:26:47,330 --> 03:26:44,939
the NASA student launch Team at Virginia

3075
03:26:48,889 --> 03:26:47,340
Tech so awesome we don't really get our

3076
03:26:50,630 --> 03:26:48,899
own name we love repping the school

3077
03:26:52,910 --> 03:26:50,640
everybody there loves her Virginia Tech

3078
03:26:55,670 --> 03:26:52,920
so we're happy the rep buses just to

3079
03:26:59,570 --> 03:26:56,990
absolutely can you tell me who those are

3080
03:27:00,950 --> 03:26:59,580
from so those are from Homer Hickam and

3081
03:27:02,450 --> 03:27:00,960
one of his friends that started his own

3082
03:27:05,450 --> 03:27:02,460
company he now is doing some commercial

3083
03:27:07,429 --> 03:27:05,460
things for blue origin and um

3084
03:27:08,690 --> 03:27:07,439
they're doing some commercial stuff on

3085
03:27:10,490 --> 03:27:08,700
the moon he wouldn't tell me what it was

3086
03:27:12,229 --> 03:27:10,500
unfortunately I guess it's a little bit

3087
03:27:14,690 --> 03:27:12,239
of a trade secret but Homer Hickam is a

3088
03:27:16,309 --> 03:27:14,700
VT alumni at Virginia Tech we have a

3089
03:27:18,110 --> 03:27:16,319
very broad support from our alumni we

3090
03:27:19,610 --> 03:27:18,120
love interacting with them we love them

3091
03:27:21,349 --> 03:27:19,620
coming back to our events and stuff they

3092
03:27:23,150 --> 03:27:21,359
always say Hokies love hiring Hokies

3093
03:27:24,349 --> 03:27:23,160
because they know the curriculum we have

3094
03:27:25,670 --> 03:27:24,359
they know the professors they know the

3095
03:27:27,950 --> 03:27:25,680
great environment we have at the school

3096
03:27:29,269 --> 03:27:27,960
so we always love when we get our our

3097
03:27:31,490 --> 03:27:29,279
alumni come back because they have great

3098
03:27:33,229 --> 03:27:31,500
stories I have great advice you know uh

3099
03:27:34,490 --> 03:27:33,239
Mr Hickam was telling us about the

3100
03:27:36,650 --> 03:27:34,500
different work he's done and giving us

3101
03:27:37,849 --> 03:27:36,660
advice about uh what he was telling

3102
03:27:38,929 --> 03:27:37,859
people like at SpaceX about just don't

3103
03:27:40,670 --> 03:27:38,939
give up you know you're going to fail

3104
03:27:42,469 --> 03:27:40,680
but keep on going which is indicative of

3105
03:27:44,210 --> 03:27:42,479
sort of uh our whole year because we

3106
03:27:46,670 --> 03:27:44,220
went through three launches with each of

3107
03:27:48,110 --> 03:27:46,680
our Rockets so our subscale rocket air

3108
03:27:49,790 --> 03:27:48,120
full scale both had to be launched three

3109
03:27:50,990 --> 03:27:49,800
times because we ran into those

3110
03:27:51,950 --> 03:27:51,000
challenges and those failures and I

3111
03:27:53,510 --> 03:27:51,960
think that's the most important thing

3112
03:27:55,550 --> 03:27:53,520
with engineering is you're gonna fail

3113
03:27:57,110 --> 03:27:55,560
but you just got to keep going yes

3114
03:27:59,510 --> 03:27:57,120
absolutely we see that time and time

3115
03:28:01,429 --> 03:27:59,520
again today after interviewing a lot of

3116
03:28:04,010 --> 03:28:01,439
the teams so is there anyone you'd like

3117
03:28:05,389 --> 03:28:04,020
to shout out or think absolutely we'd

3118
03:28:07,190 --> 03:28:05,399
really like to think our team Mentor Bob

3119
03:28:08,990 --> 03:28:07,200
Schoener if it wasn't for his Direction

3120
03:28:10,429 --> 03:28:09,000
this whole rocket could have never been

3121
03:28:12,110 --> 03:28:10,439
built a lot of us we come from

3122
03:28:14,389 --> 03:28:12,120
backgrounds that have no experience in

3123
03:28:16,429 --> 03:28:14,399
high-powered rocketry so he really makes

3124
03:28:17,870 --> 03:28:16,439
sure that we're understanding what we're

3125
03:28:19,190 --> 03:28:17,880
doing we're doing it safely and things

3126
03:28:21,889 --> 03:28:19,200
like that we want to thank our faculty

3127
03:28:23,150 --> 03:28:21,899
advisor Dr Pat Artis he is a huge

3128
03:28:24,590 --> 03:28:23,160
tremendous help with us he goes through

3129
03:28:25,849 --> 03:28:24,600
our reports and things making sure that

3130
03:28:27,469 --> 03:28:25,859
we don't write anything that seems a

3131
03:28:28,849 --> 03:28:27,479
little off or a little silly you know

3132
03:28:30,170 --> 03:28:28,859
he's been in industry for a long time

3133
03:28:32,090 --> 03:28:30,180
has his own company performance

3134
03:28:33,349 --> 03:28:32,100
associates they love that we really want

3135
03:28:35,210 --> 03:28:33,359

03:28:38,990 --> 03:28:36,899
Collins Aerospace and the student

3138
03:28:40,370 --> 03:28:39,000
engineer council at Virginia Tech and

3139
03:28:41,450 --> 03:28:40,380
the department of aerospace engineer at

3140
03:28:43,490 --> 03:28:41,460
Virginia Tech we want to thank all of

3141
03:28:44,809 --> 03:28:43,500
them without these guys none of our

3142
03:28:46,010 --> 03:28:44,819
projects could actually happen and of

3143
03:28:48,110 --> 03:28:46,020
course we want to thank the staff here

3144
03:28:49,370 --> 03:28:48,120

this event we couldn't get this great

3146
03:28:52,610 --> 03:28:50,580

do you have any expectations well we

3162
03:29:40,309 --> 03:29:36,899
knew from the start this wasn't going to

3163
03:29:42,410 --> 03:29:40,319
be a very easy project and uh coming

3164
03:29:44,750 --> 03:29:42,420
from a background with no experience in

3165
03:29:47,030 --> 03:29:44,760
any kind of rocketry uh definitely has

3166
03:29:49,849 --> 03:29:47,040
exceeded our expectations that's awesome

3167
03:29:51,530 --> 03:29:49,859

liked been impressed with how's that

3172
03:30:01,010 --> 03:29:58,979
going honestly all of the teams have

3173
03:30:02,330 --> 03:30:01,020
really impressed seeing how their

3174
03:30:04,670 --> 03:30:02,340
payloads are functioning some are

3175
03:30:06,469 --> 03:30:04,680
similar some are very very different and

3176
03:30:08,110 --> 03:30:06,479
just seeing how everybody's creative

3177
03:30:10,969 --> 03:30:08,120
process just goes throughout the project

3178
03:30:13,910 --> 03:30:10,979
yeah what are you most proud of in your

3179
03:30:17,090 --> 03:30:13,920
rocket honestly being able to build the

3180
03:30:19,969 --> 03:30:17,100
whole rocket and meeting everybody in on

3181
03:30:21,530 --> 03:30:19,979
our team we're a new to the competition

3182
03:30:23,330 --> 03:30:21,540
obviously so we have

3183
03:30:25,729 --> 03:30:23,340
not a lot of people we have a team of

3184
03:30:27,590 --> 03:30:25,739
about 10 people so we had to really work

3185
03:30:29,809 --> 03:30:27,600
with each other to get all of the roles

3186
03:30:31,790 --> 03:30:29,819
all of the requirements done

3187
03:30:33,469 --> 03:30:31,800
sure and tell me some of the challenges

3188
03:30:35,330 --> 03:30:33,479
every team has had to overcome

3189
03:30:36,290 --> 03:30:35,340
challenges in this process talk to me

3190
03:30:37,550 --> 03:30:36,300
about some of those that you've had to

3191
03:30:40,490 --> 03:30:37,560
overcome

3192
03:30:42,410 --> 03:30:40,500
well like I said a little earlier none

3193
03:30:44,750 --> 03:30:42,420
of us knew anything about the Rockets So

3194
03:30:47,389 --> 03:30:44,760
learning everything that there is to

3195
03:30:49,429 --> 03:30:47,399
know about rocketry from the what's

3196
03:30:51,290 --> 03:30:49,439
efficient what to stay away from and

3197
03:30:53,990 --> 03:30:51,300
then learning everything about the

3198
03:30:57,050 --> 03:30:54,000
payload uh radio frequency was

3199
03:30:59,150 --> 03:30:57,060
definitely the biggest challenge for us

3200
03:31:01,130 --> 03:30:59,160
okay wonderful and is there anybody that

3201
03:31:03,469 --> 03:31:01,140
you'd like to thank for you know getting

3202
03:31:05,570 --> 03:31:03,479
you guys here today

3203
03:31:09,349 --> 03:31:05,580
so we have a couple of sponsors uh

3204
03:31:11,929 --> 03:31:09,359
Valerie and Skip press we also have knf

3205
03:31:13,729 --> 03:31:11,939
equipment WWF Coast Steel those are the

3206
03:31:15,469 --> 03:31:13,739
people who kind of helped us raise the

3207
03:31:17,389 --> 03:31:15,479
funds for that additionally we would

3208
03:31:19,190 --> 03:31:17,399
like to thank Jim Ballard who is our

3209
03:31:22,269 --> 03:31:19,200
Mentor helped us through the entire

3210
03:31:25,610 --> 03:31:22,279
process additionally Dr William kitch

3211
03:31:27,889 --> 03:31:25,620
also a really really great mentor and

3212
03:31:29,870 --> 03:31:27,899
also the support from all of our friends

3213
03:31:32,389 --> 03:31:29,880
our faculty from the school they've

3214
03:31:34,550 --> 03:31:32,399
always been there to support us now

3215
03:31:36,950 --> 03:31:34,560
y'all are from West Texas so it was a

3216
03:31:38,389 --> 03:31:36,960
bit of a travel to get here how was it

3217
03:31:40,429 --> 03:31:38,399
um during your test flights did you have

3218
03:31:41,809 --> 03:31:40,439
a location near you where you could do

3219
03:31:43,550 --> 03:31:41,819
the test flight some people had to drive

3220
03:31:46,070 --> 03:31:43,560
you know hours to even do that part so

3221
03:31:49,190 --> 03:31:46,080
what what was your setup like we got

3222
03:31:51,590 --> 03:31:49,200
really lucky uh our launch field was

3223
03:31:54,590 --> 03:31:51,600
maybe 30 minutes away from San Angelo in

3224
03:31:56,269 --> 03:31:54,600
a little town of wall Texas so it was

3225
03:31:58,969 --> 03:31:56,279
very very close to us we could launch it

3226
03:32:01,250 --> 03:31:58,979
almost at any time that we we wanted to

3227
03:32:03,710 --> 03:32:01,260
we launched our full scale twice

3228
03:32:07,550 --> 03:32:03,720
successfully our subscale additionally

3229
03:32:10,010 --> 03:32:07,560
very successful okay wonderful

3230
03:32:11,090 --> 03:32:10,020
um I think we are going to

3231
03:32:14,330 --> 03:32:11,100
uh

3232
03:32:16,250 --> 03:32:14,340
go back to Lane for a little bit and see

3233
03:32:18,950 --> 03:32:16,260
what's going on and get an update all

3234
03:32:20,870 --> 03:32:18,960
right thanks Lauren thanks guys okay

3235
03:32:22,370 --> 03:32:20,880
next we have our first high school team

3236
03:32:24,290 --> 03:32:22,380
that we're going to interview today so

3237
03:32:27,950 --> 03:32:24,300
Guys Portland rocketry do you want to

3238
03:32:32,269 --> 03:32:29,750
all right so as I just said we have

3239
03:32:34,070 --> 03:32:32,279
Portland rocketry with us

3240
03:32:36,290 --> 03:32:34,080
um hi can you tell me your name hi my

3241
03:32:37,910 --> 03:32:36,300
name is nivid Singh what uh year are you

3242
03:32:38,990 --> 03:32:37,920
in school well I'm a senior in high

3243
03:32:40,309 --> 03:32:39,000
school okay

3244
03:32:42,349 --> 03:32:40,319
okay how's it going today how's the

3245
03:32:43,849 --> 03:32:42,359
energy with the team it's wonderful the

3246
03:32:45,769 --> 03:32:43,859
energy of the whole event is wonderful

3247
03:32:47,269 --> 03:32:45,779
and we're really excited to be here yeah

3248
03:32:49,309 --> 03:32:47,279
so tell me do you guys face any

3249
03:32:51,349 --> 03:32:49,319
challenges or difficulties this year

3250
03:32:53,510 --> 03:32:51,359
yeah so this year we decided to build an

3251
03:32:55,490 --> 03:32:53,520
Arabic system so the rocket wouldn't go

3252
03:32:58,490 --> 03:32:55,500
too high and it would increase the drag

3253
03:33:00,290 --> 03:32:58,500
of the rocket while it's going up so we

3254
03:33:02,030 --> 03:33:00,300
faced a lot of challenges as this was

3255
03:33:04,309 --> 03:33:02,040
something completely new that we've

3256
03:33:07,190 --> 03:33:04,319
never done before so we 3D printed the

3257
03:33:08,510 --> 03:33:07,200
first time and it turned out to be too

3258
03:33:10,429 --> 03:33:08,520
big and some of the parts didn't move

3259
03:33:12,469 --> 03:33:10,439
together and then we 3D printed it again

3260
03:33:14,330 --> 03:33:12,479
and some of the parts were still too big

3261
03:33:16,070 --> 03:33:14,340
so then we ended up sanding it down and

3262
03:33:17,870 --> 03:33:16,080
even with the programming and testing we

3263
03:33:19,670 --> 03:33:17,880
faced a lot of challenges and how to

3264
03:33:21,950 --> 03:33:19,680
find ways to simulate the flight data

3265
03:33:24,170 --> 03:33:21,960
and simulate the flight and on top of

3266
03:33:28,010 --> 03:33:24,180
that our we had snow all the way in

3267
03:33:29,630 --> 03:33:28,020
March so we had to uh our launches

3268
03:33:32,150 --> 03:33:29,640
almost got canceled and at one point we

3269
03:33:33,769 --> 03:33:32,160
launched in the snowy weather wow so how

3270
03:33:36,349 --> 03:33:33,779
was that navigating the cold weather you

3271
03:33:38,389 --> 03:33:36,359
guys have to just bundle up and go with

3272
03:33:40,010 --> 03:33:38,399
it yeah just bundle up and go with it

3273
03:33:41,510 --> 03:33:40,020
and

3274
03:33:43,070 --> 03:33:41,520
um I mean it's very interesting there it

3275
03:33:44,389 --> 03:33:43,080
kind of goes snow on and off during the

3276
03:33:46,190 --> 03:33:44,399
launch so it's just spraying that when

3277
03:33:47,990 --> 03:33:46,200
our rockets on there and launching it's

3278
03:33:50,210 --> 03:33:48,000
the good weather

3279
03:33:51,590 --> 03:33:50,220
um time yeah absolutely so can you tell

3280
03:33:53,929 --> 03:33:51,600
me a little bit more about your payload

3281
03:33:56,809 --> 03:33:53,939
in the rocket sure so our bill is the

3282
03:33:59,269 --> 03:33:56,819
Arabic system and we have three fins

3283
03:34:01,309 --> 03:33:59,279
um right about here and essentially

3284
03:34:03,710 --> 03:34:01,319
there's a system on board that takes the

3285
03:34:06,349 --> 03:34:03,720
acceleration data the velocity data and

3286
03:34:08,450 --> 03:34:06,359
the altitude data and it combines those

3287
03:34:09,650 --> 03:34:08,460
to find a predicted altitude and if it

3288
03:34:11,990 --> 03:34:09,660
thinks the rocket is going to go too

3289
03:34:15,469 --> 03:34:12,000
high or things of the rocket is going to

3290
03:34:17,330 --> 03:34:15,479
overshoot the projected altitude then it

3291
03:34:18,950 --> 03:34:17,340
deploys the air brakes and that kind of

3292
03:34:20,929 --> 03:34:18,960
pushes something out of the rocket which

3293
03:34:22,490 --> 03:34:20,939
increases the drag and because the drag

3294
03:34:24,290 --> 03:34:22,500
is increased it's able to make the

3295
03:34:26,510 --> 03:34:24,300
rocket go a little bit lower okay

3296
03:34:28,490 --> 03:34:26,520
awesome so is there anyone you want to

3297
03:34:30,170 --> 03:34:28,500
shout out or think today yeah so first

3298
03:34:31,910 --> 03:34:30,180
of all um I just want to thank everybody

3299
03:34:35,090 --> 03:34:31,920
on the team I have Anika here Matthew

3300
03:34:37,250 --> 03:34:35,100
Haley nikonch and Anish um Everybody did

3301
03:34:39,410 --> 03:34:37,260
a lot for the rocket and everybody

3302
03:34:41,269 --> 03:34:39,420
played a Monumental role in building the

3303
03:34:43,550 --> 03:34:41,279
rocket um I'd also like to thank our

3304
03:34:44,990 --> 03:34:43,560
Mentor George George spent a lot of time

3305
03:34:47,389 --> 03:34:45,000
with us going to launches with us and

3306
03:34:50,030 --> 03:34:47,399
was helping us along the whole process I

3307
03:34:51,590 --> 03:34:50,040
like to thank thank our coach John John

3308
03:34:53,150 --> 03:34:51,600
helped us all throughout the year and I

3309
03:34:56,809 --> 03:34:53,160
don't know how he'd be here without him

3310
03:34:58,670 --> 03:34:56,819
through a lot of challenges and a lot of

3311
03:35:00,650 --> 03:34:58,680
the things we faced he helped us kind of

3312
03:35:02,389 --> 03:35:00,660
figure out how we can overcome it we

3313
03:35:04,309 --> 03:35:02,399
spent a lot of late nights together and

3314
03:35:06,290 --> 03:35:04,319
we also worked out of his house so thank

3315
03:35:09,590 --> 03:35:06,300
you to him and then finally we want to

3316
03:35:11,090 --> 03:35:09,600
thank just all our parents for bringing

3317
03:35:12,710 --> 03:35:11,100
us here and helping us out and the team

3318
03:35:14,630 --> 03:35:12,720
from NASA for helping us out throughout

3319
03:35:16,070 --> 03:35:14,640
the year and especially with this

3320
03:35:18,290 --> 03:35:16,080
challenge kind of guiding us through the

3321
03:35:19,610 --> 03:35:18,300
process yeah awesome and my final

3322
03:35:21,769 --> 03:35:19,620
question would be if you could give

3323
03:35:23,929 --> 03:35:21,779
advice to a new team or a new competitor

3324
03:35:25,729 --> 03:35:23,939
what would your advice be I'm sorry

3325
03:35:28,490 --> 03:35:25,739
advice is just get out there find a

3326
03:35:29,450 --> 03:35:28,500
project that you like and just go for it

3327
03:35:31,070 --> 03:35:29,460
um at the beginning of the year the

3328
03:35:33,950 --> 03:35:31,080
Arabic system seemed very hard and

3329
03:35:36,110 --> 03:35:33,960
unreachable for us but um just by doing

3330
03:35:37,729 --> 03:35:36,120
it we learned so much and we just say we

3331
03:35:39,349 --> 03:35:37,739
have a project go for it okay awesome

3332
03:35:41,630 --> 03:35:39,359
well thank you so much for talking with

3333
03:35:43,610 --> 03:35:41,640
us today best of luck and we'll see you

3334
03:35:45,889 --> 03:35:43,620
guys later thank you

3335
03:35:48,290 --> 03:35:45,899
okay and now I think we're ready for

3336
03:36:36,710 --> 03:35:48,300
another round of launches so we're gonna

3337
03:36:40,969 --> 03:36:39,349
yeah

3338
03:36:42,889 --> 03:36:40,979
you know you're at a rocket launcher

3339
03:36:44,630 --> 03:36:42,899
there's always a lot of little confusion

3340
03:36:46,550 --> 03:36:44,640
a little this little that we're having a

3341
03:36:48,410 --> 03:36:46,560
little fun it's okay time's on our side

3342
03:36:50,210 --> 03:36:48,420
still got the sun in the air

3343
03:36:52,190 --> 03:36:50,220
so we just a couple things we had to

3344
03:36:54,650 --> 03:36:52,200
sort out so now we're gonna get back to

3345
03:36:56,870 --> 03:36:54,660
Flying some Rockets So

3346
03:36:58,910 --> 03:36:56,880
thank you uh oh yeah I've got a couple

3347
03:37:04,969 --> 03:36:58,920
claps there yes I thought those are

3348
03:37:11,870 --> 03:37:08,870
oh okay so on pad 62

3349
03:37:14,030 --> 03:37:11,880
we have a Spring Grove rocketry at us at

3350
03:37:16,670 --> 03:37:14,040
a Spring Grove Area School District out

3351
03:37:19,670 --> 03:37:16,680
of Spring Grove Pennsylvania name this

3352
03:37:23,690 --> 03:37:19,680
Rocket's Hyperion this does have the

3353
03:37:28,250 --> 03:37:25,910
they also have

3354
03:37:32,030 --> 03:37:28,260
to help it I guess mitigate some of the

3355
03:37:35,030 --> 03:37:32,040
uh for weather caulking on a scent this

3356
03:37:36,769 --> 03:37:35,040
has the Ava radio wave transmitting

3357
03:37:38,469 --> 03:37:36,779
three ground stations to measure

3358
03:37:41,210 --> 03:37:38,479
distance through

3359
03:37:43,370 --> 03:37:41,220
trilateration the location can be mapped

3360
03:37:47,269 --> 03:37:43,380
in three-dimensional space I hope you

3361
03:37:52,330 --> 03:37:50,450
so this rocket is flying on a CTI or

3362
03:37:57,349 --> 03:37:52,340
cesaroni

3363
03:37:59,750 --> 03:37:57,359
K750 Redline should go about 4 500 feet

3364
03:38:01,729 --> 03:37:59,760
this rocket what I remember looking at

3365
03:38:03,410 --> 03:38:01,739
it did have extra set of fins but it's

3366
03:38:06,710 --> 03:38:03,420
not a two stage

3367
03:38:08,210 --> 03:38:06,720
in all of the scale the subscaler

3368
03:38:09,410 --> 03:38:08,220
full-scale flights which have been

3369
03:38:12,170 --> 03:38:09,420
several of them

3370
03:38:14,750 --> 03:38:12,180
they have all performed within plus or

3371
03:38:16,790 --> 03:38:14,760
minus a hundred feet of their predicted

3372
03:38:18,290 --> 03:38:16,800
altitude so they've got this system down

3373
03:38:20,510 --> 03:38:18,300
pretty well

3374
03:38:24,830 --> 03:38:20,520
this team does also have uh seven

3375
03:38:31,790 --> 03:38:27,889
okay so on pad number 62

3376
03:38:34,790 --> 03:38:31,800
we have um we have Hyperion we have a

3377
03:38:47,389 --> 03:38:34,800
clear sky we have a clear range

3378
03:38:51,410 --> 03:38:49,550
okay just a sec we have to troubleshoot

3379
03:39:25,910 --> 03:38:51,420
some of the electronics so just hold

3380
03:39:29,510 --> 03:39:27,950
gotta cook those boxes a little bit so

3381
03:39:31,610 --> 03:39:29,520
we just gotta double check to make sure

3382
03:39:55,250 --> 03:39:31,620
that all the wires are plugged up hooked

3383
03:39:55,260 --> 03:40:16,870
um

3384
03:40:16,880 --> 03:40:50,530
thank you yeah

3385
03:40:50,540 --> 03:41:06,110
right now

3386
03:41:10,190 --> 03:41:08,030
welcome back to NASA student launch

3387
03:41:12,110 --> 03:41:10,200
challenge Lauren Perkins with NASA's

3388
03:41:13,670 --> 03:41:12,120
Marshall space flight center I have me

3389
03:41:15,170 --> 03:41:13,680
here Notre Dame we're going to get to

3390
03:41:16,670 --> 03:41:15,180
know a little bit about some of the

3391
03:41:19,309 --> 03:41:16,680
teams please tell me your name and your

3392
03:41:20,809 --> 03:41:19,319
role of the team hi I'm Lauren Falk I'm

3393
03:41:22,729 --> 03:41:20,819
a senior aerospace engineering major at

3394
03:41:24,710 --> 03:41:22,739
Notre Dame and I'm this year's uh

3395
03:41:27,110 --> 03:41:24,720
president of the rocketry club wonderful

3396
03:41:28,610 --> 03:41:27,120
and have y'all launched yet we have not

3397
03:41:30,889 --> 03:41:28,620
launched yet yeah we have not launched

3398
03:41:33,229 --> 03:41:30,899
yet okay how are you feeling about going

3399
03:41:35,330 --> 03:41:33,239
into the launch have you seen any teams

3400
03:41:37,130 --> 03:41:35,340
that you're super impressed with yeah

3401
03:41:38,389 --> 03:41:37,140
we're really excited to launch our last

3402
03:41:40,429 --> 03:41:38,399
demonstration flight went really

3403
03:41:42,349 --> 03:41:40,439
successfully so we're excited to do it

3404
03:41:44,750 --> 03:41:42,359
again today and hoping everything goes

3405
03:41:46,790 --> 03:41:44,760
to plan all of the launches today have

3406
03:41:48,889 --> 03:41:46,800
been really fun to watch we're excited

3407
03:41:50,150 --> 03:41:48,899
to keep watching okay now tell me a

3408
03:41:52,070 --> 03:41:50,160
little bit about your rocket which

3409
03:41:54,110 --> 03:41:52,080
obviously is behind you anything that

3410
03:41:56,570 --> 03:41:54,120
your is unique about it you're impressed

3411

with about it yeah so this is the Brun

3412
03:42:03,469 --> 03:41:59,760
sting it's Notre Dame's 11th rocket

3413
03:42:06,950 --> 03:42:03,479
um it is uh how many feet is it 103.

3414
03:42:09,650 --> 03:42:06,960
it's 130 inches long and we're using an

3415
03:42:11,630 --> 03:42:09,660
l-class motor we have our experimental

3416
03:42:13,729 --> 03:42:11,640
payload as defined by NASA and we're

3417
03:42:15,670 --> 03:42:13,739
also using an air braking system called

3418
03:42:18,229 --> 03:42:15,680
the apogee control system

3419
03:42:19,969 --> 03:42:18,239
our name of the rocket the brunswing is

3420
03:42:22,130 --> 03:42:19,979
named after our Mentor Dave who's been

3421
03:42:24,650 --> 03:42:22,140
supporting the team for several years so

3422
03:42:27,290 --> 03:42:24,660
we're excited to have this named in his

3423
03:42:30,229 --> 03:42:27,300
honor that's wonderful and I know Notre

3424
03:42:31,670 --> 03:42:30,239
Dame is known for its tradition so do

3425
03:42:34,610 --> 03:42:31,680
you all have any traditions on the team

3426
03:42:37,130 --> 03:42:34,620
yeah we have a lot of traditions um all

3427
03:42:38,809 --> 03:42:37,140
super fun a couple traditions we have

3428
03:42:40,849 --> 03:42:38,819
are

3429
03:42:42,830 --> 03:42:40,859
um here I am blanking on Traditions

3430
03:42:44,809 --> 03:42:42,840
we're Notre Dame

3431
03:42:47,269 --> 03:42:44,819
um not so fun traditions of Landing in

3432
03:42:49,010 --> 03:42:47,279
trees yeah a not so fun tradition is

3433
03:42:51,349 --> 03:42:49,020
we've landed in trees twice this year

3434
03:42:53,389 --> 03:42:51,359
and also we've visited a bagel shop

3435
03:42:54,889 --> 03:42:53,399
before every launch to kind of get the

3436
03:42:56,330 --> 03:42:54,899
team together before we get to work

3437
03:42:57,710 --> 03:42:56,340
which is super fun

3438
03:43:00,410 --> 03:42:57,720
um and Huntsville has become an awesome

3439
03:43:03,050 --> 03:43:00,420
tradition of ours so yes this is your

3440
03:43:04,910 --> 03:43:03,060
11th year bye Philly yes so 11th year

3441
03:43:06,889 --> 03:43:04,920
good thing the tree line is pretty far

3442
03:43:08,630 --> 03:43:06,899
away here so that's good and I will say

3443
03:43:10,729 --> 03:43:08,640
I did have a bagel for breakfast so

3444
03:43:12,889 --> 03:43:10,739
things are looking good for y'all

3445
03:43:15,290 --> 03:43:12,899
um talk to me sort of about how the test

3446
03:43:16,969 --> 03:43:15,300
flights went uh some of the teams had to

3447
03:43:18,950 --> 03:43:16,979
drive you know four hours across

3448
03:43:20,929 --> 03:43:18,960
counties to go to the test flight so how

3449
03:43:22,910 --> 03:43:20,939
does that work for you yeah so our test

3450
03:43:25,309 --> 03:43:22,920
flights we do about 30 minutes away from

3451
03:43:27,290 --> 03:43:25,319
campus which is super convenient our

3452
03:43:30,349 --> 03:43:27,300
first flight the recover the ascent and

3453
03:43:32,510 --> 03:43:30,359
Recovery went perfectly until our nose

3454
03:43:34,969 --> 03:43:32,520
cone shot cord snapped and so the nose

3455
03:43:36,590 --> 03:43:34,979
cone free fell and landed in a tree the

3456
03:43:38,929 --> 03:43:36,600
rest of the rocket was perfectly fine

3457
03:43:41,330 --> 03:43:38,939
and undamaged but that nose cone had to

3458
03:43:43,250 --> 03:43:41,340
be retrieved from someone who climbed

3459
03:43:45,410 --> 03:43:43,260
into the tree to get it our second

3460
03:43:48,290 --> 03:43:45,420
rocket the main parachute deployed at

3461
03:43:49,849 --> 03:43:48,300
apogee and once again the rocket landed

3462
03:43:52,429 --> 03:43:49,859
in a tree this time it was a little more

3463
03:43:55,010 --> 03:43:52,439
Tangled and our third demonstration

3464
03:43:57,590 --> 03:43:55,020
flight went extremely well nominal

3465
03:43:59,389 --> 03:43:57,600
ascent and descent and then

3466
03:44:01,550 --> 03:43:59,399
the rocket danced with a couple trees

3467
03:44:04,610 --> 03:44:01,560
before we finally landed on the ground

3468
03:44:06,469 --> 03:44:04,620
safe and sound okay and

3469
03:44:08,210 --> 03:44:06,479
um obviously a lot of that was technical

3470
03:44:09,950 --> 03:44:08,220
challenges that you had to overcome were

3471
03:44:11,929 --> 03:44:09,960
there any personal or team challenges

3472
03:44:14,990 --> 03:44:11,939
that you also had to come uh overcome

3473
03:44:17,450 --> 03:44:15,000
yeah so the past few years we've been

3474
03:44:20,269 --> 03:44:17,460
led by a leadership team that's mostly

3475
03:44:22,370 --> 03:44:20,279
seniors this year we have a lot of young

3476
03:44:24,290 --> 03:44:22,380
Juniors and sophomores who are on our

3477
03:44:25,729 --> 03:44:24,300
leadership team all are super capable

3478
03:44:28,309 --> 03:44:25,739
but we've had to do a lot of learning

3479
03:44:30,110 --> 03:44:28,319
this year to get up to speed and be on

3480
03:44:31,610 --> 03:44:30,120
that same expertise level and I think

3481
03:44:32,750 --> 03:44:31,620
we've done an awesome job and we're

3482
03:44:34,610 --> 03:44:32,760
really proud that we've made it here to

3483
03:44:35,809 --> 03:44:34,620
Huntsville awesome we are so glad to

3484
03:44:37,969 --> 03:44:35,819
have you thank you so much for taking

3485
03:44:40,250 --> 03:44:37,979
some time to talk with us and good luck

3486
03:44:43,010 --> 03:44:40,260
now we're going to go to Will Bryan

3487
03:44:50,870 --> 03:44:43,020
who's going to talk to

3488
03:44:54,710 --> 03:44:52,849
one of our long time teams their stuff

3489
03:44:59,090 --> 03:44:54,720
with us is University of California

3490
03:45:01,849 --> 03:44:59,100
Davis Eclipse rocketry so guys we see

3491
03:45:03,710 --> 03:45:01,859
your awesome rocket the paint Scheme is

3492
03:45:05,030 --> 03:45:03,720
excellent how are you guys feeling

3493
03:45:06,889 --> 03:45:05,040
before launch

3494
03:45:08,510 --> 03:45:06,899
feeling a little nervous but confident

3495
03:45:10,309 --> 03:45:08,520
that our rocket will perform well and be

3496
03:45:11,210 --> 03:45:10,319
recovered successfully excellent so I

3497
03:45:12,830 --> 03:45:11,220
understand you have a really cool

3498
03:45:14,929 --> 03:45:12,840
feature on this rocket tell us about

3499
03:45:16,550 --> 03:45:14,939
that yeah so our fins can actually be

3500
03:45:18,469 --> 03:45:16,560
separated from our booster airframe

3501
03:45:19,910 --> 03:45:18,479
intentionally since we are a team from

3502
03:45:21,889 --> 03:45:19,920
California and had to fly to Huntsville

3503
03:45:23,929 --> 03:45:21,899
Alabama we thought well shipping it with

3504
03:45:25,490 --> 03:45:23,939
the fins on would be very expensive and

3505
03:45:26,809 --> 03:45:25,500
taking it in like suitcase and stuff so

3506
03:45:29,210 --> 03:45:26,819
we can actually just slide them right on

3507
03:45:32,090 --> 03:45:29,220
and fits right in a suitcase okay so

3508
03:45:36,050 --> 03:45:32,100
that's crazy cool so wait your fence

3509
03:45:37,429 --> 03:45:36,060
transported here in your suitcases yes

3510
03:45:39,469 --> 03:45:37,439
talk to us more about what this

3511
03:45:41,809 --> 03:45:39,479
experience has been like and what it's

3512
03:45:44,090 --> 03:45:41,819
like to get a rocket of this size from

3513
03:45:45,950 --> 03:45:44,100
California to North Alabama

3514
03:45:47,690 --> 03:45:45,960
we had to arrive at the airport about

3515
03:45:49,969 --> 03:45:47,700
four hours early just to make sure we

3516
03:45:51,590 --> 03:45:49,979
could get through TSA in time I wasn't

3517
03:45:56,030 --> 03:45:51,600
sure if they were going to stop us or

3518
03:45:57,469 --> 03:45:56,040
not for all the black powder residue

3519
03:45:59,030 --> 03:45:57,479
yeah

3520
03:46:00,410 --> 03:45:59,040
well that's awesome so tell us how

3521
03:46:02,150 --> 03:46:00,420
you're tackling that payload challenge

3522
03:46:03,590 --> 03:46:02,160
dealing with the camera deploying and

3523
03:46:05,690 --> 03:46:03,600
then taking signals from uh from our

3524
03:46:07,130 --> 03:46:05,700
Towers here yeah so unfortunately our

3525
03:46:08,809 --> 03:46:07,140
payload got damaged during our full

3526
03:46:10,790 --> 03:46:08,819
scale demonstration fight so we are

3527
03:46:12,769 --> 03:46:10,800
finding a dummy payload in here but

3528
03:46:14,690 --> 03:46:12,779
before it had worked somewhat as an arm

3529
03:46:16,550 --> 03:46:14,700
system as our nose cone Jetta sits

3530
03:46:19,010 --> 03:46:16,560
completely separately from the rocket so

3531
03:46:20,570 --> 03:46:19,020
our payload would then slide out of this

3532
03:46:22,670 --> 03:46:20,580
airframe still attached to the rocket

3533
03:46:24,110 --> 03:46:22,680
and have an arm system come up and like

3534
03:46:26,150 --> 03:46:24,120
take photos and receive the signals

3535
03:46:28,190 --> 03:46:26,160
using a handheld radio and a Raspberry

3536
03:46:29,990 --> 03:46:28,200
Pi oh that's really cool I'm sure it was

3537
03:46:31,490 --> 03:46:30,000
great and um still great that you guys

3538
03:46:33,530 --> 03:46:31,500
are still able to fly your rocket

3539
03:46:35,269 --> 03:46:33,540
despite payloads not working it's just

3540
03:46:37,250 --> 03:46:35,279
part of the business we're in so are you

3541
03:46:39,670 --> 03:46:37,260
all seniors or what year are you guys

3542
03:46:42,190 --> 03:46:39,680
and what years

3543
03:46:45,170 --> 03:46:42,200
sophomores through seniors yeah

3544
03:46:47,150 --> 03:46:45,180
so anybody want to work for NASA work in

3545
03:46:49,729 --> 03:46:47,160
the space flight industry one day

3546
03:46:51,590 --> 03:46:49,739
definitely that okay that'll just be a

3547
03:46:53,330 --> 03:46:51,600
little cool yeah

3548
03:46:54,710 --> 03:46:53,340
well that's awesome you're off to a

3549
03:46:56,630 --> 03:46:54,720
great start learning this engineering

3550
03:46:58,729 --> 03:46:56,640
challenge anybody back home you want to

3551
03:47:01,969 --> 03:46:58,739
say hi to anybody you want to thank

3552
03:47:05,870 --> 03:47:01,979
hi to my mom and my dad and also my dog

3553
03:47:08,750 --> 03:47:05,880
Max hello to all the moms all the dads

3554
03:47:11,630 --> 03:47:08,760
in to me most importantly to all the

3555
03:47:13,490 --> 03:47:11,640
dogs we say hi we thank you and with

3556
03:47:14,990 --> 03:47:13,500
that we're ready to go to launches you

3557
03:47:16,490 --> 03:47:15,000
see Davis we wish you the best of luck

3558
03:47:24,769 --> 03:47:16,500
let's go watch some more Rockets take

3559
03:47:29,389 --> 03:47:27,410
Okay so

3560
03:47:30,889 --> 03:47:29,399
we definitely pulled like some MacGyver

3561
03:47:34,130 --> 03:47:30,899
moves I know some of us don't know what

3562
03:47:35,929 --> 03:47:34,140
that is we had to do some wiring to wire

3563
03:47:37,729 --> 03:47:35,939
no wire I think we got it all we got it

3564
03:47:39,590 --> 03:47:37,739
all set up so that's what we said I did

3565
03:47:42,410 --> 03:47:39,600
also find out Spring Grove rocketry has

3566
03:47:44,750 --> 03:47:42,420
a 27 pound rocket and it's not cameras

3567
03:47:46,790 --> 03:47:44,760
it's Canard so they have four Canard

3568
03:47:48,590 --> 03:47:46,800
fins on this rocket okay this one's

3569
03:47:52,010 --> 03:47:48,600
flying on a CTI

3570
03:47:55,190 --> 03:47:52,020
uh K750 Redline should go about 4 500

3571
03:47:57,050 --> 03:47:55,200
feet and it's got the multiple uh

3572
03:47:58,729 --> 03:47:57,060
transmitting ground stations to

3573
03:48:00,889 --> 03:47:58,739
triangulate all its information on

3574
03:48:03,769 --> 03:48:00,899
landing on pad 62.

3575
03:48:06,190 --> 03:48:03,779
okay so now we have a clear sky we have

3576
03:48:11,269 --> 03:48:06,200
a clear range our boxes are now working

3577
03:48:18,410 --> 03:48:11,279
we are launching in five four three two

3578
03:48:18,420 --> 03:48:25,849
nice straight boost on that one

3579
03:48:25,859 --> 03:48:31,610
still below the clouds

3580
03:48:31,620 --> 03:48:35,150
there's an event

3581
03:48:35,160 --> 03:48:38,929
my shoes are filtered

3582
03:48:58,030 --> 03:48:40,670
their parachute looks good the mean

3583
03:49:08,630 --> 03:49:02,269
it's still still way up there probably

3584
03:49:14,030 --> 03:49:10,969
may even set for 600 on this one this

3585
03:49:16,490 --> 03:49:14,040
one has the three ground stations three

3586
03:49:20,809 --> 03:49:16,500
transmitters so hopefully it is starting

3587
03:49:24,110 --> 03:49:22,490
I wasn't supposed to be here all day

3588
03:49:29,630 --> 03:49:24,120
today either but they're short of camera

3589
03:49:32,809 --> 03:49:31,309
that's the awesome I had something

3590
03:49:35,269 --> 03:49:32,819
actually to do this morning they were at

3591
03:49:36,349 --> 03:49:35,279
a thousand feet oh no there's 600. all

3592
03:49:42,950 --> 03:49:36,359
right

3593
03:49:48,650 --> 03:49:45,710
very excited team there

3594
03:49:50,450 --> 03:49:48,660
one of the SOI competing teams so that

3595
03:49:56,870 --> 03:49:50,460
would be one of the middle and high

3596
03:50:03,370 --> 03:49:58,870
and it is down okay

3597
03:50:06,160 --> 03:50:03,380
continuing on to pad number 63. we have

3598
03:50:08,030 --> 03:50:06,170
WSU Everett rocket team

3599
03:50:10,550 --> 03:50:08,040
[Music]

3600
03:50:13,370 --> 03:50:10,560
they are very excited they've been

3601
03:50:15,290 --> 03:50:13,380
waiting patiently this is a school WSU

3602
03:50:18,590 --> 03:50:15,300
at Everett Washington

3603
03:50:20,349 --> 03:50:18,600
the name of the rocket is C1 flying or

3604
03:50:23,150 --> 03:50:20,359
weighs

3605
03:50:25,250 --> 03:50:23,160
4.40.27 pounds five and a half inch

3606
03:50:27,710 --> 03:50:25,260
diameter 10 feet tall

3607
03:50:30,889 --> 03:50:27,720
oh this is the one with the attempting

3608
03:50:34,070 --> 03:50:30,899
vertical Landing its legs deploy at 400

3609
03:50:36,110 --> 03:50:34,080
feet so it's got really large aluminum

3610
03:50:37,490 --> 03:50:36,120
legs can't miss it if you didn't see the

3611
03:50:39,469 --> 03:50:37,500
rocket

3612
03:50:41,690 --> 03:50:39,479
it will deploy 400 feet and we'll try to

3613
03:50:45,110 --> 03:50:41,700
essentially stick The Landing this is

3614
03:50:48,469 --> 03:50:45,120
the NASA usli servo

3615
03:50:51,410 --> 03:50:48,479
activated camera Landing leg deployment

3616
03:50:54,889 --> 03:50:51,420
system this rocket

3617
03:50:57,650 --> 03:50:54,899
is flying an accessory

3618
03:51:03,469 --> 03:50:57,660
um l-1030 Red Line

3619
03:51:07,910 --> 03:51:05,990
okay and then this this team I believe

3620
03:51:09,950 --> 03:51:07,920
it's their first time here

3621
03:51:12,290 --> 03:51:09,960
and they claim oh yeah that's the thing

3622
03:51:14,750 --> 03:51:12,300
this team Washington State University

3623
03:51:16,610 --> 03:51:14,760
and Everett they claim this rocket does

3624
03:51:17,630 --> 03:51:16,620
not Skip Leg Day that's what they were

3625
03:51:19,969 --> 03:51:17,640
telling me

3626
03:51:21,769 --> 03:51:19,979
Rocket's not painted but it isn't a

3627
03:51:23,330 --> 03:51:21,779
color changing wrap and they call it

3628
03:51:25,309 --> 03:51:23,340
magic color

3629
03:51:27,710 --> 03:51:25,319
they have a total of 12 team members

3630
03:51:29,990 --> 03:51:27,720
eight on the usli team

3631
03:51:31,550 --> 03:51:30,000
of them have actually certified level

3632
03:51:32,990 --> 03:51:31,560
two within the last year so that's

3633
03:51:36,290 --> 03:51:33,000
pretty pretty incredible they've

3634
03:51:37,969 --> 03:51:36,300
certified within that time

3635
03:51:40,130 --> 03:51:37,979
okay we

3636
03:51:43,790 --> 03:51:40,140
we are clear for launch we have a clear

3637
03:51:46,010 --> 03:51:43,800
sky clear Ranger pad 63 this rocket does

3638
03:51:58,070 --> 03:51:46,020
not skip like day we are going to launch

3639
03:52:11,030 --> 03:52:01,070
okay we're gonna try this again in five

3640
03:52:11,040 --> 03:52:21,429
no continuity on that one

3641
03:52:21,439 --> 03:52:28,849
thank you

3642
03:52:35,929 --> 03:52:33,710
okay we are continuing on this is on pad

3643
03:52:38,630 --> 03:52:35,939
number 80. this is the Purdue Space

3644
03:52:43,429 --> 03:52:40,670
oh yeah they're they're excited to be

3645
03:52:45,410 --> 03:52:43,439
here this is Purdue University at a West

3646
03:52:47,269 --> 03:52:45,420
Lafayette Indiana

3647
03:52:50,330 --> 03:52:47,279
the name of this rocket is student

3648
03:52:53,269 --> 03:52:50,340
launch system SLS I'd like that it's a

3649
03:52:54,610 --> 03:52:53,279
good name 49.3 pounds six inch in

3650
03:52:57,170 --> 03:52:54,620
diameter

3651
03:52:59,570 --> 03:52:57,180
8.17 feet tall

3652
03:53:03,650 --> 03:52:59,580
the experiment information is called

3653
03:53:07,790 --> 03:53:03,660
NASA SL payload stands for tacos it's a

3654
03:53:10,370 --> 03:53:07,800
tacos deployment system 360 degree view

3655
03:53:11,570 --> 03:53:10,380
as a two axis camera looks like they ran

3656
03:53:13,550 --> 03:53:11,580
out of ink so I can't read their

3657
03:53:19,190 --> 03:53:13,560
handwriting but it does have a custom

3658
03:53:23,269 --> 03:53:19,200
PCB and 80 80 3D printed self-orienting

3659
03:53:27,229 --> 03:53:23,279
camera two inch nose cone airfoil fins

3660
03:53:30,610 --> 03:53:27,239
made of resin hope you have all that

3661
03:53:33,650 --> 03:53:30,620
this rock is flying on a cesaroni l1350

3662
03:53:35,210 --> 03:53:33,660
sea star or classic should go about 4

3663
03:53:37,309 --> 03:53:35,220
000 feet

3664
03:53:41,330 --> 03:53:37,319
and I have some of the other acronyms

3665
03:53:43,370 --> 03:53:41,340
including iOS r d CES and taco so

3666
03:53:45,710 --> 03:53:43,380
bailout alphabet soup over there at

3667
03:53:47,510 --> 03:53:45,720
Purdue University I also did notice this

3668
03:53:49,130 --> 03:53:47,520
rocket to have some pretty intense motor

3669
03:53:51,650 --> 03:53:49,140
retention system

3670
03:53:53,450 --> 03:53:51,660
this team also did have a sandwich fin

3671
03:53:56,210 --> 03:53:53,460
system or the way they did the fin so

3672
03:54:00,170 --> 03:53:56,220
fiberglass core then a fiberglass cloth

3673
03:54:01,429 --> 03:54:00,180
laid up to solidify the fins I also

3674
03:54:03,590 --> 03:54:01,439
walked by when they were setting their

3675
03:54:05,269 --> 03:54:03,600
rocket up the team was doing a cheer and

3676
03:54:07,729 --> 03:54:05,279
clap when they complete the rocket

3677
03:54:09,889 --> 03:54:07,739
earlier this morning this is also a

3678
03:54:12,349 --> 03:54:09,899
large team we have 60 team members on

3679
03:54:15,110 --> 03:54:12,359
this team they have a total of seven

3680
03:54:16,729 --> 03:54:15,120
technical rocket teams 30 of the team

3681
03:54:20,030 --> 03:54:16,739
members are today

3682
03:54:22,070 --> 03:54:20,040
they in this University also if I'm

3683
03:54:24,229 --> 03:54:22,080
accurate they've also

3684
03:54:26,330 --> 03:54:24,239
um has have produced 25 different

3685
03:54:28,189 --> 03:54:26,340
astronauts over the years that have all

3686
03:54:30,769 --> 03:54:28,199
graduated from Purdue so that's pretty

3687
03:54:32,510 --> 03:54:30,779
incredible could be a future astronaut

3688
03:54:35,870 --> 03:54:32,520
in that group there today

3689
03:54:37,969 --> 03:54:35,880
okay we are ready to go on pad 80. we

3690
03:54:40,790 --> 03:54:37,979
have we have a clear sky we have a clear

3691
03:54:46,370 --> 03:54:40,800
range we're going to launch the SLS in

3692
03:54:54,410 --> 03:54:46,380
five four three two one ignition

3693
03:54:54,420 --> 03:54:59,170
should go about 4050 feet

3694
03:54:59,180 --> 03:55:03,590
arcing over

3695
03:55:03,600 --> 03:55:11,929
there's an event

3696
03:55:28,189 --> 03:55:14,450
yep small drogue it looks like the main

3697
03:55:40,010 --> 03:55:29,929
okay we're still a couple thousand feet

3698
03:55:43,849 --> 03:55:42,410
okay we're about a thousand feet so we

3699
03:55:45,110 --> 03:55:43,859
should have the main parachute any

3700
03:55:46,969 --> 03:55:45,120
moment now

3701
03:55:55,010 --> 03:55:46,979
there it is

3702
03:56:00,670 --> 03:55:57,849
is it was it boiler up Broiler up

3703
03:56:02,750 --> 03:56:00,680
Broiler boiler something

3704
03:56:07,969 --> 03:56:02,760
Boilermaker yeah boiler boiler up

3705
03:56:18,110 --> 03:56:10,250
oh it just missed that look at that

3706
03:56:24,530 --> 03:56:22,189
okay on pad 81 team name is Project Zeus

3707
03:56:28,610 --> 03:56:26,450
James Madison University out of

3708
03:56:32,410 --> 03:56:28,620
Harrisonburg Virginia

3709
03:56:35,689 --> 03:56:32,420
the name of the rocket is the pencil

3710
03:56:37,189 --> 03:56:35,699
41.5 pounds six inch in diameter 10 and

3711
03:56:38,630 --> 03:56:37,199
a half feet tall

3712
03:56:40,849 --> 03:56:38,640
they did want to let everybody know

3713
03:56:43,070 --> 03:56:40,859
they're using 15-15 rail buttons in case

3714
03:56:44,929 --> 03:56:43,080
anyone was curious to know the

3715
03:56:48,410 --> 03:56:44,939
experiment information is using a

3716
03:56:49,670 --> 03:56:48,420
planetary image capturing system AKA

3717
03:56:52,429 --> 03:56:49,680
picks

3718
03:56:54,290 --> 03:56:52,439
it has a drawer like system that pulls a

3719
03:56:55,610 --> 03:56:54,300
camera out of a coupler on a rotating

3720
03:56:57,530 --> 03:56:55,620
platform

3721
03:57:00,830 --> 03:56:57,540
upon the main parachute deployment

3722
03:57:03,110 --> 03:57:00,840
generated by snatch Force

3723
03:57:06,170 --> 03:57:03,120
hope you got that

3724
03:57:10,189 --> 03:57:06,180
this is flying on a cesaroni l1720 white

3725
03:57:12,170 --> 03:57:10,199
Thunder should go about 4 600 feet

3726
03:57:13,790 --> 03:57:12,180
and yes they have these aluminum

3727
03:57:15,830 --> 03:57:13,800
channels on the outside that's supposed

3728
03:57:17,990 --> 03:57:15,840
to help

3729
03:57:20,030 --> 03:57:18,000
and then it looks like they had some

3730
03:57:21,110 --> 03:57:20,040
pretty heavy duty channels so I don't

3731
03:57:23,389 --> 03:57:21,120
know if they took it out of a dresser

3732
03:57:25,849 --> 03:57:23,399
drawer what's the story there and the

3733
03:57:27,830 --> 03:57:25,859
reason why they're called Zeus 2 and

3734
03:57:30,170 --> 03:57:27,840
they painted it in the number two pencil

3735
03:57:32,450 --> 03:57:30,180
so that's why they went with that paint

3736
03:57:35,630 --> 03:57:32,460
theme which is pretty cool

3737
03:57:38,330 --> 03:57:35,640
and then they did say the subscale

3738
03:57:41,510 --> 03:57:38,340
flight landed 100 feet high up in a

3739
03:57:43,010 --> 03:57:41,520
higher apparatus maybe a tree not sure

3740
03:57:46,070 --> 03:57:43,020
how they got it back but it was an

3741
03:57:48,650 --> 03:57:46,080
interesting way how they got that back

3742
03:57:51,769 --> 03:57:48,660
we are going to launch the pencil on pad

3743
03:57:54,110 --> 03:57:51,779
81 we have a clear sky we have a clear

3744
03:58:05,870 --> 03:57:54,120
range we're going to launch the pencil

3745
03:58:10,910 --> 03:58:08,630
good boost on that one

3746
03:58:12,830 --> 03:58:10,920
maybe some casting tube on that I don't

3747
03:58:14,929 --> 03:58:12,840
know that was a healthy there in the

3748
03:58:19,250 --> 03:58:17,689
should go about 4 600 feet

3749
03:58:25,189 --> 03:58:19,260
possibly

3750
03:58:29,809 --> 03:58:27,830
pencils looking good so far the main is

3751
03:58:54,469 --> 03:58:29,819
set for 600 feet

3752
04:03:00,729 --> 03:58:58,670
okay should have the main parachute out

3753
04:03:04,670 --> 04:03:02,990
well hey everyone we are back here with

3754
04:03:06,530 --> 04:03:04,680
our team interview Booth as you can see

3755
04:03:08,750 --> 04:03:06,540
stuff happens with rocketry it's just

3756
04:03:10,550 --> 04:03:08,760
the business we're in so while our range

3757
04:03:11,929 --> 04:03:10,560
safety crew is downrange taking care of

3758
04:03:13,309 --> 04:03:11,939
everything making sure that we all stay

3759
04:03:17,030 --> 04:03:13,319
safe we're going to bring you some more

3760
04:03:19,729 --> 04:03:17,040
team interviews up next is Purdue Purdue

3761
04:03:22,130 --> 04:03:19,739
as you may know is kind of astronaut

3762
04:03:23,929 --> 04:03:22,140
Academy lots of astronauts including the

the first person to ever step foot on

3765
04:03:30,349 --> 04:03:28,620
the Moon is from Purdue with the NASA's

3766
04:03:31,969 --> 04:03:30,359
Artemis program we are going to be

3767
04:03:33,349 --> 04:03:31,979
sending people back to the moon the

3768
04:03:35,929 --> 04:03:33,359
first woman the first person of color

3769
04:03:38,090 --> 04:03:35,939
and a whole new generation of astronauts

3770
04:03:40,070 --> 04:03:38,100
are going to explore the moon like never

3771
04:03:41,929 --> 04:03:40,080
before we're going to carry on and Neil

3772
04:03:44,150 --> 04:03:41,939
Armstrong and all the Apollo Astronauts

3773
04:03:46,130 --> 04:03:44,160
footsteps part of that is Rockets we

3774
04:03:47,750 --> 04:03:46,140
have the NASA space launch system our

3775
04:03:49,790 --> 04:03:47,760
giant rocket that we just lose for the

3776
04:03:51,769 --> 04:03:49,800
first time in November kind of on a

3777
04:03:53,689 --> 04:03:51,779
smaller scale Some solid propellants

3778
04:03:55,550 --> 04:03:53,699
that we use with our solid rocket

3779
04:03:57,530 --> 04:03:55,560
boosters you guys use solid propellant

3780
04:03:58,490 --> 04:03:57,540
in your Rockets tell us how your flight

3781
04:04:04,910 --> 04:03:58,500
went

3782
04:04:06,769 --> 04:04:04,920
close to our Target apogee we're really

3783
04:04:08,150 --> 04:04:06,779
happy to see the results of the our

3784
04:04:09,349 --> 04:04:08,160
altimeter When We Gather and we're

3785
04:04:11,030 --> 04:04:09,359
really looking forward to see our

3786
04:04:13,130 --> 04:04:11,040
payload on the ground there we can't

3787
04:04:15,050 --> 04:04:13,140
wait so talk to us about the altitude

3788
04:04:16,790 --> 04:04:15,060
because for our viewers at home you may

3789
04:04:18,710 --> 04:04:16,800
not know teams actually you guys had to

3790
04:04:20,990 --> 04:04:18,720
predict your altitude way back in

3791
04:04:22,969 --> 04:04:21,000
November I probably before your flight

3792
04:04:25,429 --> 04:04:22,979
vehicle is even built right yes that's

3793
04:04:27,410 --> 04:04:25,439
correct so uh for preliminary design

3794
04:04:29,630 --> 04:04:27,420
review that's due in November we have to

3795
04:04:33,110 --> 04:04:29,640
pick our Target apogee that we want to

3796
04:04:34,790 --> 04:04:33,120
achieve today in Alabama so we just hope

3797
04:04:36,070 --> 04:04:34,800
that our flight predictions and our

3798
04:04:38,510 --> 04:04:36,080
manufacturing of our rocket is

3799
04:04:40,490 --> 04:04:38,520
accredited enough so we can hit as well

3800
04:04:43,010 --> 04:04:40,500
as we did today so what goes into

3801
04:04:44,870 --> 04:04:43,020
predicting an altitude like that to my

3802
04:04:47,389 --> 04:04:44,880
brain that's that's like trying to

3803
04:04:49,910 --> 04:04:47,399
predict the weather in Costa Rica on

3804
04:04:51,650 --> 04:04:49,920
July 14th it is a little like that

3805
04:04:54,530 --> 04:04:51,660
because the wind really impacts our

3806
04:04:56,809 --> 04:04:54,540
altitude so we kind of make a research

3807
04:04:59,210 --> 04:04:56,819
on like what's the wind it can be in

3808
04:05:00,710 --> 04:04:59,220
Alabama in April and we try to do six

3809
04:05:03,170 --> 04:05:00,720
degrees of freedom simulations of our

3810
04:05:04,849 --> 04:05:03,180
rocket flight profile so to see what's

3811
04:05:07,189 --> 04:05:04,859
the most likely apogee that we're going

3812
04:05:08,510 --> 04:05:07,199
a heat that's excellent now is there

3813
04:05:10,370 --> 04:05:08,520
anything cool about your rocket that you

3814
04:05:11,929 --> 04:05:10,380
guys are excited to talk about there are

3815
04:05:14,210 --> 04:05:11,939
so many cool things about rubber rocket

3816
04:05:15,710 --> 04:05:14,220
to be honest I think I I can talk in

3817
04:05:17,630 --> 04:05:15,720
here like for an hour about that cool

3818
04:05:19,130 --> 04:05:17,640
stuff in our rocket from the nose cone

3819
04:05:21,050 --> 04:05:19,140
all the way through paled avionics and

3820
04:05:23,090 --> 04:05:21,060
all the way to booster section from that

3821
04:05:25,010 --> 04:05:23,100
cool things last year uh we did really

3822
04:05:26,750 --> 04:05:25,020
good job 3D printing our rocket this

3823
04:05:28,610 --> 04:05:26,760
year uh we're also picking up on that so

3824
04:05:31,130 --> 04:05:28,620
our nose cone is 3D printed with wet

3825
04:05:33,530 --> 04:05:31,140
layout of fiberglass on it our fins are

3826
04:05:36,229 --> 04:05:33,540
also we're using 3D print to create

3827
04:05:38,990 --> 04:05:36,239
malls other things are like a fiberglass

3828
04:05:40,849 --> 04:05:39,000
sheet resin cast and then fiberglass on

3829
04:05:42,290 --> 04:05:40,859
it so it's a really cool engineering and

3830
04:05:44,330 --> 04:05:42,300
like really cool design were developed

3831
04:05:45,889 --> 04:05:44,340
for our payload it's mostly 3D printed

3832
04:05:47,570 --> 04:05:45,899
so really really proud of the design we

3833
04:05:49,610 --> 04:05:47,580
came up with and it's fully functional

3834
04:05:51,410 --> 04:05:49,620
this year so we're really happy about it

3835
04:05:52,729 --> 04:05:51,420
what's so cool and 3D printing is such a

3836
04:05:55,070 --> 04:05:52,739
huge part of the space flight industry

3837
04:05:56,630 --> 04:05:55,080
only grabbing more and more attention as

3838
04:05:58,550 --> 04:05:56,640
we try to tackle some really ambitious

3839
04:05:59,630 --> 04:05:58,560
goals now you guys coming for Purdue I

3840
04:06:02,710 --> 04:05:59,640
have to ask anybody want to be an

3841
04:06:06,769 --> 04:06:04,729
could not have said it better myself

3842
04:06:08,929 --> 04:06:06,779
Purdue anybody back home you guys want

3843
04:06:10,130 --> 04:06:08,939
to think uh yeah definitely want to

3844

the best of luck I know your rock is out

3852
04:06:28,790 --> 04:06:27,359
there you're anxious to get to it we're

3853
04:06:30,110 --> 04:06:28,800
just like you know if we can we would

3854
04:06:33,769 --> 04:06:30,120
just run over there just to pick it up

3855
04:06:35,030 --> 04:06:33,779
right now yeah well we can't wait to

3856
04:06:36,290 --> 04:06:35,040
hear what those results are be sure to

3857
04:06:37,610 --> 04:06:36,300
follow them on their social media

3858
04:06:38,929 --> 04:06:37,620
channels as we go throughout the

3859
04:06:40,729 --> 04:06:38,939
competition guys thank you so much for

3860
04:06:42,650 --> 04:06:40,739
being here we look forward to seeing it

3861
04:06:44,510 --> 04:06:42,660
see how everything went yeah all right

3862
04:06:46,790 --> 04:06:44,520
so we're gonna bring in uh Lauren

3863
04:06:48,170 --> 04:06:46,800
Perkins my awesome colleague and

3864
04:06:49,910 --> 04:06:48,180
Lauren's gonna bring us our next team

3865
04:06:52,309 --> 04:06:49,920
Lauren who do you have coming in with us

3866
04:06:57,469 --> 04:06:56,210
State they are with a team in Texas

3867
04:06:59,330 --> 04:06:57,479
um so we're going to hear a little bit

3868
04:07:03,229 --> 04:06:59,340
about their rocket and some challenges

3869
04:07:05,030 --> 04:07:03,239
that they've actually had to overcome so

3870
04:07:07,189 --> 04:07:05,040
can you all both tell me your name and

3871
04:07:09,469 --> 04:07:07,199
your roles on the team today

3872
04:07:11,330 --> 04:07:09,479
my name is Jay stichford I am a support

3873
04:07:13,010 --> 04:07:11,340
engineer specifically within the payload

3874
04:07:14,929 --> 04:07:13,020
section my name is Jay Green I'm the

3875
04:07:16,729 --> 04:07:14,939
project for the project manager

3876
04:07:18,530 --> 04:07:16,739
wonderful and how is it feeling being

3877
04:07:20,030 --> 04:07:18,540
here today you're getting ready to

3878
04:07:22,130 --> 04:07:20,040
launch you've seen a lot of launches

3879
04:07:25,010 --> 04:07:22,140
already so what's the what's the feeling

3880
04:07:26,510 --> 04:07:25,020
like we're just extremely excited this

3881
04:07:27,590 --> 04:07:26,520
is the first time for our engineering

3882
04:07:29,870 --> 04:07:27,600
program that we've been able to

3883
04:07:31,969 --> 04:07:29,880
participate in the usli competition so

3884
04:07:34,130 --> 04:07:31,979
we're elated to be here we've seen some

3885
04:07:36,410 --> 04:07:34,140
really cool fights already and we're

3886
04:07:38,150 --> 04:07:36,420
just hoping to be on par with those and

3887
04:07:40,130 --> 04:07:38,160
we're just happy to be here

3888
04:07:41,570 --> 04:07:40,140
and I hear that there may be some

3889
04:07:43,849 --> 04:07:41,580
challenges that y'all kind of had to

3890
04:07:45,229 --> 04:07:43,859
overcome to get to this point so tell me

3891
04:07:47,870 --> 04:07:45,239
a little bit about some of those

3892
04:07:49,849 --> 04:07:47,880
challenges so I would say our primary

3893
04:07:52,130 --> 04:07:49,859
challenge as we've also discussed with

3894
04:07:54,469 --> 04:07:52,140
other teams has been with our payload a

3895
04:07:56,689 --> 04:07:54,479
lot of implications there and uh we

3896
04:07:58,910 --> 04:07:56,699
actually about a week ago had to rebuild

3897
04:08:00,950 --> 04:07:58,920
the rocket so we kind of put on Fast

3898
04:08:02,750 --> 04:08:00,960
Track because we really we were really

3899
04:08:05,150 --> 04:08:02,760
motivated and we're willing to come and

3900
04:08:06,469 --> 04:08:05,160
uh at launch here so about a week ago I

3901
04:08:08,210 --> 04:08:06,479
had to start rebuilding the rocket but

3902
04:08:10,250 --> 04:08:08,220
we put in overdrive and we were able to

3903
04:08:11,570 --> 04:08:10,260
make it wonderful so tell me a little

3904
04:08:12,889 --> 04:08:11,580
bit about the rocket what are you most

3905
04:08:16,010 --> 04:08:12,899
proud of anything you need think about

3906
04:08:22,849 --> 04:08:19,150
besides as if the Rocket's here

3907
04:08:25,910 --> 04:08:22,859
uh We've it's our senior design project

3908
04:08:27,650 --> 04:08:25,920
and uh starting back in August none of

3909
04:08:29,630 --> 04:08:27,660
us knew anything about rocket stream so

3910
04:08:32,030 --> 04:08:29,640
just to make it this far make the

3911
04:08:33,710 --> 04:08:32,040
Huntsville and have a functioning rocket

3912
04:08:36,650 --> 04:08:33,720
is a very big accomplishment we're very

3913
04:08:40,070 --> 04:08:36,660
proud very proud wonderful and what is

3914
04:08:42,110 --> 04:08:40,080
the um your test situation

3915
04:08:44,210 --> 04:08:42,120
drive you know four hours to even find a

3916
04:08:45,469 --> 04:08:44,220
test site I imagine in Texas it's a

3917
04:08:47,990 --> 04:08:45,479
little bit flatter so what is that like

3918
04:08:49,370 --> 04:08:48,000
for you so uh a majority of our test

3919
04:08:51,229 --> 04:08:49,380
launch sites were actually within the

3920
04:08:53,689 --> 04:08:51,239
two hour time frame so it was pretty

3921
04:08:56,469 --> 04:08:53,699
convenient being able to just drive out

3922
04:08:58,910 --> 04:08:56,479
there and thankfully not long distances

3923
04:09:00,950 --> 04:08:58,920
what are you most nervous about getting

3924
04:09:03,530 --> 04:09:00,960
into the launch

3925
04:09:05,269 --> 04:09:03,540
um I I just I'm speaking for myself and

3926
04:09:06,950 --> 04:09:05,279
Jay you can add on to this

3927
04:09:08,389 --> 04:09:06,960
um I I just think we're hoping for a

3928
04:09:09,530 --> 04:09:08,399
successful recovery

3929
04:09:11,510 --> 04:09:09,540
um just so that we can launch it up

3930
04:09:13,729 --> 04:09:11,520
there and have everything uh operate

3931
04:09:16,070 --> 04:09:13,739
perfectly at apogee and then our main

3932
04:09:17,630 --> 04:09:16,080
parachute so I would say a recovery but

3933
04:09:18,769 --> 04:09:17,640
Jay would you like that I'm completely

3934
04:09:20,570 --> 04:09:18,779
confident that we're going to recover

3935
04:09:22,550 --> 04:09:20,580
the rocket completely confident my team

3936
04:09:23,689 --> 04:09:22,560
we've had a lot of good launches I think

3937
04:09:25,370 --> 04:09:23,699
we'll do this one

3938
04:09:27,769 --> 04:09:25,380
wonderful anybody you want to give a

3939
04:09:30,229 --> 04:09:27,779
shout out to back home any of y'all just

3940
04:09:32,750 --> 04:09:30,239
uh you know wave to the camera and say

3941
04:09:34,429 --> 04:09:32,760
thank you to yeah

3942
04:09:36,349 --> 04:09:34,439
um yeah so we have had a wonderful team

3943
04:09:38,269 --> 04:09:36,359
we had a big shout out to Jim Jarvis

3944
04:09:40,729 --> 04:09:38,279
he's been our Mentor every step of the

3945
04:09:43,610 --> 04:09:40,739
wave is he's helped us and uh our Dean

3946
04:09:46,130 --> 04:09:43,620
back home Dr uh Rafael landetta uh Dr

3947
04:09:48,050 --> 04:09:46,140
Zhu our advisor Miss feeman they've all

3948
04:09:50,750 --> 04:09:48,060
been so supportive of our first year

3949
04:09:52,130 --> 04:09:50,760
being able to engage in this so okay

3950
04:09:54,469 --> 04:09:52,140
wonderful

3951
04:09:56,870 --> 04:09:54,479
um I think we're gonna head back over to

3952
04:09:58,250 --> 04:09:56,880
will but thank you so much and wishing

3953
04:10:00,110 --> 04:09:58,260
you the best of luck in your volley

3954
04:10:02,510 --> 04:10:00,120
thank you thank you

3955
04:10:04,250 --> 04:10:02,520
yeah Lauren I'd love to see Tarleton

3956
04:10:05,929 --> 04:10:04,260
here as a team that when I first started

3957
04:10:07,250 --> 04:10:05,939
uh participating with student launch it

3958
04:10:09,410 --> 04:10:07,260
was always a team that I got to see and

3959
04:10:11,689 --> 04:10:09,420
so it brings back a lot of fond memories

3960
04:10:14,450 --> 04:10:11,699
we're joined by the University of

3961
04:10:17,389 --> 04:10:14,460
Florida the chomping Gators are with us

3962
04:10:19,790 --> 04:10:17,399
now all right so Florida you guys your

3963
04:10:21,349 --> 04:10:19,800
rocket launched how did it go it seemed

3964
04:10:22,670 --> 04:10:21,359
to go really well we launched in the

3965
04:10:24,050 --> 04:10:22,680
beginning of volley too but we haven't

3966
04:10:25,610 --> 04:10:24,060
been able to get it back yet because of

3967
04:10:27,530 --> 04:10:25,620
the delays but it looks like it went

3968
04:10:29,750 --> 04:10:27,540
really well at least so how high were

3969
04:10:32,389 --> 04:10:29,760
you targeting uh to hit today

3970
04:10:38,210 --> 04:10:32,399
Target was 46 but we predict 40

3971
04:10:41,750 --> 04:10:40,130
. hard watching especially the mining

3972
04:10:50,450 --> 04:10:41,760
experience size how do you think how

3973
04:10:54,650 --> 04:10:52,189
limbs from the past flights we were off

3974
04:10:56,510 --> 04:10:54,660
by one foot on our payload demo flight

3975
04:10:58,790 --> 04:10:56,520
so if that's anything to be trusted then

3976
04:11:00,830 --> 04:10:58,800
I think we got pretty close I'm gonna

3977
04:11:02,389 --> 04:11:00,840
say if you hit it by one foot you're

3978
04:11:04,309 --> 04:11:02,399
probably pretty good containers for that

3979
04:11:06,889 --> 04:11:04,319
altitude announcements here

3980
04:11:09,050 --> 04:11:06,899
so the teams that are on the pads right

3981
04:11:11,689 --> 04:11:09,060
now in just a second everyone go out and

3982
04:11:13,030 --> 04:11:11,699
pull those rockets off the pads because

3983
04:11:15,650 --> 04:11:13,040
they've been sitting for a while

3984
04:11:17,929 --> 04:11:15,660
essentially we'll create a fourth volley

3985
04:11:20,030 --> 04:11:17,939
and we'll have those two rockets plus

3986
04:11:23,210 --> 04:11:20,040
any other ones if you're in the third

3987
04:11:26,090 --> 04:11:23,220
volley you can make sure you coordinate

3988
04:11:28,370 --> 04:11:26,100
with check-in and RSO you can go set

3989
04:11:30,170 --> 04:11:28,380
those up out there for those teams that

3990
04:11:32,030 --> 04:11:30,180
need to recover the Rockets you can go

3991
04:11:34,670 --> 04:11:32,040
out and recover your Rockets you just

3992
04:11:36,469 --> 04:11:34,680
gotta stay on the outside of the range

3993
04:11:39,229 --> 04:11:36,479
and then we are in the process of

3994
04:11:40,790 --> 04:11:39,239
getting some we're getting recharge on

3995
04:11:43,670 --> 04:11:40,800
our fire suppression system and then

3996
04:11:46,130 --> 04:11:43,680
updating our pad boxes so you've got the

3997
04:11:49,010 --> 04:11:46,140
rockets on the pads takes those off

3998
04:11:50,750 --> 04:11:49,020
we'll have a fourth volley if you are on

3999
04:11:52,010 --> 04:11:50,760
the third volley you can go out make

4000
04:11:55,130 --> 04:11:52,020
sure you go through your check-in go

4001
04:11:56,689 --> 04:11:55,140
through RSO and go set all that up if

4002
04:11:58,849 --> 04:11:56,699
you need to recover your Rockets go

4003
04:12:02,150 --> 04:11:58,859
recover your Rockets So any questions

4004
04:12:03,950 --> 04:12:02,160
come to the lco or RSO desks

4005
04:12:07,130 --> 04:12:03,960
all right and as you heard that

4006
04:12:09,290 --> 04:12:07,140
announcement if you haven't flown also

4007
04:12:11,870 --> 04:12:09,300
and your rockets on the pad pick up your

4008
04:12:14,269 --> 04:12:11,880
flight cards too

4009
04:12:16,550 --> 04:12:14,279
this is the result this is how real

4010
04:12:17,990 --> 04:12:16,560
rockets go this is how real launches go

4011
04:12:19,309 --> 04:12:18,000
so teams are able to go out and recover

4012
04:12:20,929 --> 04:12:19,319
their Rockets I'm sure you guys are

4013
04:12:22,429 --> 04:12:20,939
going to be anxious to uh to recover

4014
04:12:24,950 --> 04:12:22,439
your rocket and we'll let you out there

4015
04:12:27,170 --> 04:12:24,960
here just uh if they're pulling your

4016
04:12:29,090 --> 04:12:27,180
rocket off the pad pick up your flight

4017
04:12:31,070 --> 04:12:29,100
card first

4018
04:12:32,389 --> 04:12:31,080
so the teams that have launched on

4019
04:12:33,950 --> 04:12:32,399
volley too they're going to go out and

4020
04:12:35,990 --> 04:12:33,960
recover their Rockets of all the three

4021
04:12:38,210 --> 04:12:36,000
rockets are on their way out to the pad

4022
04:12:39,650 --> 04:12:38,220
you can see the crowd behind us as these

4023
04:12:41,630 --> 04:12:39,660
Rockets are going to be coming and going

4024
04:12:43,429 --> 04:12:41,640
Florida I wanted to ask you how did you

4025
04:12:45,769 --> 04:12:43,439
how do you do you tackle the payload

4026
04:12:47,210 --> 04:12:45,779
challenge this year yeah so um our

4027
04:12:49,490 --> 04:12:47,220
payload relied on the fact that our

4028
04:12:52,070 --> 04:12:49,500
rocket has three fins so we have three

4029
04:12:54,229 --> 04:12:52,080
camera systems one aligned with each fin

4030
04:12:56,630 --> 04:12:54,239
so that when the rocket inevitably lands

4031
04:12:58,490 --> 04:12:56,640
on two of the fins one fan will be one

4032
04:13:00,590 --> 04:12:58,500
fin will be facing up therefore One

4033
04:13:02,210 --> 04:13:00,600
camera system will be facing up so the

4034
04:13:04,670 --> 04:13:02,220
camera can rotate out of the airframe

4035
04:13:06,830 --> 04:13:04,680
and then um following the radio commands

4036
04:13:07,550 --> 04:13:06,840
take the pictures and rotate and do all

4037
04:13:09,349 --> 04:13:07,560
the

4038
04:13:11,210 --> 04:13:09,359
um commands I would say so you're using

4039
04:13:12,530 --> 04:13:11,220
gravity really as as kind of one of your

4040
04:13:14,389 --> 04:13:12,540
aids to make sure that you have a camera

4041
04:13:16,130 --> 04:13:14,399
that can collect the signal that's

4042
04:13:17,570 --> 04:13:16,140
awesome so I know you're anxious to go

4043
04:13:19,250 --> 04:13:17,580
get your rocket anybody back home you

4044
04:13:21,469 --> 04:13:19,260

Bay rocketry Association as well for

4055
04:13:46,790 --> 04:13:44,460
helping us get our rocket out of a tree

4056
04:13:48,410 --> 04:13:46,800
about a month ago so yeah they're

4057
04:13:50,330 --> 04:13:48,420

4058
04:13:52,429 --> 04:13:50,340
here so well to all the partners and to

4059
04:13:54,229 --> 04:13:52,439
all the local rocketry associations that

4060
04:13:55,910 --> 04:13:54,239
help our teams get here we thank you

4061
04:13:57,469 --> 04:13:55,920
University of Florida y'all go get your

4062
04:13:59,510 --> 04:13:57,479
rocket and we look forward to seeing

4063
04:14:03,110 --> 04:13:59,520
seeing how everything went that one more

4064
04:14:03,120 --> 04:14:08,389
so Laura's going to come back in and

4065
04:14:08,399 --> 04:14:14,090
and

4066
04:14:19,070 --> 04:14:17,570
the climate is vastly different slightly

4067
04:14:20,870 --> 04:14:19,080
different from the 80 degree weather

4068
04:14:22,490 --> 04:14:20,880
than that we're experiencing today as

4069
04:14:24,530 --> 04:14:22,500
you can tell it's a little bit warm here

4070
04:14:26,929 --> 04:14:24,540
so I'm really interested to see what

4071
04:14:30,950 --> 04:14:26,939
they hear what they have to say

4072
04:14:31,969 --> 04:14:30,960
so as we get you guys up here

4073
04:14:34,010 --> 04:14:31,979
okay

4074
04:14:35,929 --> 04:14:34,020
wonderful you all just keep on filing it

4075
04:14:38,330 --> 04:14:35,939
will you tell me your name and your role

4076
04:14:41,150 --> 04:14:38,340
with the team looks like University of

4077
04:14:42,590 --> 04:14:41,160
Tennessee Chattanooga who's with Alyssa

4078
04:14:44,750 --> 04:14:42,600
wonderful and I kind of prepped

4079
04:14:47,450 --> 04:14:44,760
everybody a little bit already that you

4080
04:14:49,490 --> 04:14:47,460
are our team from North Dakota so talk

4081
04:14:52,370 --> 04:14:49,500
to me about the

4082
04:14:54,290 --> 04:14:52,380
um uh the climate differences and what

4083
04:14:56,630 --> 04:14:54,300
that sort of presented challenge wise

4084
04:14:58,370 --> 04:14:56,640
and how the tests have been

4085
04:15:00,590 --> 04:14:58,380
um well it's definitely colder in North

4086
04:15:03,650 --> 04:15:00,600
Dakota so we've had a pretty long winter

4087
04:15:05,630 --> 04:15:03,660
with lots of snow and ice and cold so

4088
04:15:07,370 --> 04:15:05,640
that that makes it challenging to find a

4089
04:15:08,929 --> 04:15:07,380
nice day to launch but also even just

4090
04:15:10,250 --> 04:15:08,939
getting to our launch site sometimes the

4091
04:15:13,070 --> 04:15:10,260
roads they're minimum maintenance road

4092
04:15:14,510 --> 04:15:13,080
so we can't even make it to the to the

4093
04:15:16,189 --> 04:15:14,520
spot through our normal road so we have

4094
04:15:18,469 --> 04:15:16,199
to try all different directions just to

4095
04:15:20,150 --> 04:15:18,479
get there get through the snow but it's

4096
04:15:22,729 --> 04:15:20,160
it's been a great year with with the

4097
04:15:25,490 --> 04:15:22,739
rocket and what is uh recovery like when

4098
04:15:28,490 --> 04:15:25,500
you've got you know snow covered grounds

4099
04:15:31,189 --> 04:15:28,500
we usually send out about three brave

4100
04:15:33,349 --> 04:15:31,199
souls who climb through the the pretty

4101
04:15:35,929 --> 04:15:33,359
deep snow and get our rocket sometimes

4102
04:15:37,910 --> 04:15:35,939
they have to go a bit of a ways so

4103
04:15:39,590 --> 04:15:37,920
you've already launched obviously we can

4104
04:15:40,849 --> 04:15:39,600
see the rocket behind you how do you

4105
04:15:42,410 --> 04:15:40,859
think it went

4106
04:15:43,849 --> 04:15:42,420
um and how do you think it compares to

4107
04:15:45,110 --> 04:15:43,859
you know other Rockets are there any

4108
04:15:46,429 --> 04:15:45,120
others you're really impressed with

4109
04:15:48,469 --> 04:15:46,439
today

4110
04:15:50,210 --> 04:15:48,479
um it was a great launch it went um as

4111
04:15:52,130 --> 04:15:50,220
we expected we were really happy with

4112
04:15:53,510 --> 04:15:52,140
with how everything went and it's it's

4113
04:15:55,370 --> 04:15:53,520
just been really cool to see all the

4114
04:15:56,809 --> 04:15:55,380
other teams Rockets as well all the

4115
04:15:58,250 --> 04:15:56,819
designs that they have for this year's

4116
04:16:00,290 --> 04:15:58,260
payload challenge have been super unique

4117
04:16:02,269 --> 04:16:00,300
and really cool to see so it's been a

4118
04:16:03,710 --> 04:16:02,279
lot of fun wonderful anybody younger

4119
04:16:05,929 --> 04:16:03,720
that's watching do you have any advice

4120
04:16:07,490 --> 04:16:05,939
for people looking to get into this sort

4121
04:16:09,469 --> 04:16:07,500
of field

4122
04:16:11,150 --> 04:16:09,479
um I would say definitely go for it if

4123
04:16:13,790 --> 04:16:11,160
you're interested follow your dreams

4124
04:16:15,349 --> 04:16:13,800
it's it's possible with with getting

4125
04:16:17,870 --> 04:16:15,359
involved with a rocketry club if you're

4126
04:16:19,370 --> 04:16:17,880
interested in it and finally my last

4127
04:16:21,290 --> 04:16:19,380
question is is there anybody you'd like

4128
04:16:22,490 --> 04:16:21,300
to thank or give a shout out to while we

4129
04:16:23,990 --> 04:16:22,500
have you on

4130
04:16:26,630 --> 04:16:24,000
um yeah I definitely like to thank our

4131
04:16:28,490 --> 04:16:26,640
our team mentor and all of our team for

4132
04:16:29,929 --> 04:16:28,500
for playing some long nights and putting

4133
04:16:31,610 --> 04:16:29,939
a lot of hard work and then also of

4134
04:16:34,010 --> 04:16:31,620
course our sponsors and the university

4135
04:16:35,630 --> 04:16:34,020
for supporting us wonderful thank you so

4136
04:16:36,830 --> 04:16:35,640
much for your time today and wishing you

4137
04:16:39,530 --> 04:16:36,840
all the best of luck for the rest of the

4138
04:16:41,330 --> 04:16:39,540
competition thank you all right and we

4139
04:16:42,650 --> 04:16:41,340
are going to talk with Lane who's back

4140
04:16:45,349 --> 04:16:42,660
with us now and we're going to hear from

4141
04:16:46,910 --> 04:16:45,359
a few more teams yes awesome so I think

4142
04:16:49,189 --> 04:16:46,920
the next team we have coming up is the

4143
04:16:51,290 --> 04:16:49,199
University of Tennessee Tennessee at

4144
04:16:54,110 --> 04:16:51,300
Chattanooga so I'll let them get over

4145
04:16:58,370 --> 04:16:56,750
hey guys how's it going doing good how

4146
04:17:00,229 --> 04:16:58,380
are you doing so I understand you guys

4147
04:17:02,030 --> 04:17:00,239
launched earlier how'd it go it went

4148
04:17:03,830 --> 04:17:02,040
well uh everything was successful for

4149
04:17:05,990 --> 04:17:03,840
our flight we were able to have a

4150
04:17:08,210 --> 04:17:06,000
successful drug in Maine parachute uh

4151
04:17:10,130 --> 04:17:08,220
deployment and then our payload operated

4152
04:17:12,110 --> 04:17:10,140
just exactly what we expected awesome

4153
04:17:13,610 --> 04:17:12,120
yeah so tell me a little bit about your

4154
04:17:15,170 --> 04:17:13,620
payload so this is a counterweight

4155
04:17:17,870 --> 04:17:15,180
payload system that we have we actually

4156
04:17:20,090 --> 04:17:17,880
have the power system uh as the

4157
04:17:22,189 --> 04:17:20,100
counterweight and it sits on two sets of

4158
04:17:24,170 --> 04:17:22,199
bearings that are able to rotate freely

4159
04:17:26,330 --> 04:17:24,180
and then we have a Servo motor that is

4160
04:17:27,889 --> 04:17:26,340
connected to our PI camera and then the

4161
04:17:30,889 --> 04:17:27,899
camera runs into a microcomputer called

4162
04:17:32,990 --> 04:17:30,899
a Raspberry Pi and then autonomously we

4163
04:17:35,630 --> 04:17:33,000
were able to rotate the camera through

4164
04:17:36,950 --> 04:17:35,640
RF frequency that we have with NASA's

4165
04:17:38,450 --> 04:17:36,960
Ground Control and then from there we're

4166
04:17:40,969 --> 04:17:38,460
able to take pictures change the filters

4167
04:17:42,349 --> 04:17:40,979
flip the camera upside down and just do

4168
04:17:43,610 --> 04:17:42,359
a bunch of other things that NASA

4169
04:17:45,290 --> 04:17:43,620
required us to do for these objectives

4170
04:17:47,510 --> 04:17:45,300
but yeah it came out great the clear

4171
04:17:50,150 --> 04:17:47,520
acrylic case showed clear pictures and

4172
04:17:51,830 --> 04:17:50,160
went well awesome so did you guys face

4173
04:17:54,830 --> 04:17:51,840
any challenges or difficulties this year

4174
04:17:59,090 --> 04:17:57,050
um for the majority of us we are all uh

4175
04:18:00,590 --> 04:17:59,100
first timers doing this so the team has

4176
04:18:03,710 --> 04:18:00,600
been around for a while but everybody

4177
04:18:05,150 --> 04:18:03,720
here is brand new to the game so uh it's

4178
04:18:06,769 --> 04:18:05,160
it was definitely a huge learning curve

4179
04:18:08,450 --> 04:18:06,779
for us um we had to go back to some

4180
04:18:09,830 --> 04:18:08,460
classes that we hadn't taken in a while

4181
04:18:11,630 --> 04:18:09,840
and the class that we took last semester

4182
04:18:13,729 --> 04:18:11,640
and and all of it so we had a lot of

4183
04:18:14,630 --> 04:18:13,739
help from uh just previous people that

4184
04:18:16,429 --> 04:18:14,640
were able to kind of get some advice

4185
04:18:18,590 --> 04:18:16,439
from through what they've done before

4186
04:18:20,330 --> 04:18:18,600
and then from there just kind of learned

4187
04:18:22,429 --> 04:18:20,340
and experienced a lot of it was trial

4188
04:18:24,050 --> 04:18:22,439
and error we've had uh some successful

4189
04:18:26,630 --> 04:18:24,060
flights and we've had some pretty crazy

4190
04:18:29,510 --> 04:18:26,640
fails so uh it's been good but through

4191
04:18:30,950 --> 04:18:29,520
the trials and um through the through

4192
04:18:33,290 --> 04:18:30,960
the areas that we've made we've actually

4193
04:18:34,370 --> 04:18:33,300
been able to come out on top and we had

4194
04:18:36,050 --> 04:18:34,380
a really really good flight we're really

4195
04:18:38,330 --> 04:18:36,060
proud that's great to hear so every

4196
04:18:40,790 --> 04:18:38,340
single person is new to the team or okay

4197
04:18:42,830 --> 04:18:40,800
so you had some fresh people on so how

4198
04:18:44,269 --> 04:18:42,840
long has UTC been involved with student

4199
04:18:45,889 --> 04:18:44,279
launch is this your first time or have

4200
04:18:48,410 --> 04:18:45,899
you guys kind of been in the competition

4201
04:18:49,969 --> 04:18:48,420
a while yeah since 2019 we've had there

4202
04:18:52,010 --> 04:18:49,979
so it's it's been a good while for us

4203
04:18:53,030 --> 04:18:52,020
and a lot of these guys now they're

4204
04:18:54,590 --> 04:18:53,040
they're actually out working in

4205
04:18:55,370 --> 04:18:54,600
aerospace companies so it's cool that

4206
04:18:57,349 --> 04:18:55,380
they actually get to have that Real

4207
04:18:58,910 --> 04:18:57,359
World experience and not only are we

4208
04:19:00,290 --> 04:18:58,920
getting stuff from usli previous

4209
04:19:02,210 --> 04:19:00,300
experience but we also have people who

4210
04:19:03,889 --> 04:19:02,220
are actually in Aerospace that's really

4211
04:19:06,229 --> 04:19:03,899
able to help us out so that's super

4212
04:19:07,969 --> 04:19:06,239
helpful yeah fantastic so you guys do

4213
04:19:10,490 --> 04:19:07,979
you have a name for your rocket or is it

4214
04:19:12,650 --> 04:19:10,500
just g2c's rocket it's it's called sick

4215
04:19:15,050 --> 04:19:12,660
parvis Magna it's a Latin for greatness

4216
04:19:17,030 --> 04:19:15,060
comes from Small Beginnings and for us

4217
04:19:18,590 --> 04:19:17,040
you know all starting out and not really

4218
04:19:20,269 --> 04:19:18,600
having any rocketry experience before

4219
04:19:22,250 --> 04:19:20,279
this we thought it was a pretty

4220
04:19:24,590 --> 04:19:22,260
appropriate name to to go with that so

4221
04:19:26,929 --> 04:19:24,600
absolutely is there anybody you want to

Elliott he's been a huge help for us and

4230
04:19:42,950 --> 04:19:40,979
with his extensive experience and his

4231
04:19:45,469 --> 04:19:42,960

04:19:56,389 --> 04:19:54,600
if you could offer advice to anyone

4238
04:19:57,710 --> 04:19:56,399
who's like new to student launch or a

4239
04:19:59,710 --> 04:19:57,720
team what would you say

4240
04:20:02,630 --> 04:19:59,720
be prepared to not sleep

4241
04:20:04,729 --> 04:20:02,640
have a lot of stamina and also like just

4242
04:20:06,410 --> 04:20:04,739
don't be too hard on yourself this is a

4243
04:20:08,090 --> 04:20:06,420
very big learning process and there's a

4244
04:20:09,710 --> 04:20:08,100
lot of failures that come with it and

4245
04:20:10,969 --> 04:20:09,720
while there is a time crunch and there's

4246
04:20:13,370 --> 04:20:10,979
a lot of things that you have to do and

4247
04:20:14,689 --> 04:20:13,380
a very little short period of time it's

4248
04:20:16,309 --> 04:20:14,699
good to learn and it's good to do that

4249
04:20:18,110 --> 04:20:16,319
and when you have those small goals and

4250
04:20:19,550 --> 04:20:18,120
you set those for yourself you

4251
04:20:21,650 --> 04:20:19,560
eventually accomplish the Big Goal yeah

4252
04:20:23,330 --> 04:20:21,660
so absolutely well thank you so much for

4253
04:20:25,309 --> 04:20:23,340
talking with me today congratulations on

4254
04:20:28,849 --> 04:20:25,319
a successful launch and enjoy the rest

4255
04:20:30,349 --> 04:20:28,859
of the competition thank you guys

4256
04:20:31,729 --> 04:20:30,359
all right and Laura's going to come back

4257
04:20:34,010 --> 04:20:31,739
with us and as he mentioned it doesn't

4258
04:20:35,630 --> 04:20:34,020
matter if a team has been involved for

4259
04:20:37,250 --> 04:20:35,640
years or they're brand new there are

4260
04:20:38,750 --> 04:20:37,260
always new challenges and new things

4261
04:20:40,250 --> 04:20:38,760
that come up

4262
04:20:41,689 --> 04:20:40,260
um team collaboration or whatever

4263
04:20:43,610 --> 04:20:41,699
payload they're working on that year

4264
04:20:45,429 --> 04:20:43,620
they have to overcome a lot of different

4265
04:20:48,650 --> 04:20:45,439
things so it's really cool to hear that

4266
04:20:52,130 --> 04:20:48,660
Lauren who do we have next so we have

4267
04:20:54,950 --> 04:20:52,140
NYU with us and it is their first year

4268
04:20:57,410 --> 04:20:54,960
um uh competing this year we're gonna

4269
04:21:00,229 --> 04:20:57,420
try to get them all in frame here

4270
04:21:01,969 --> 04:21:00,239
um and uh I want to start out

4271
04:21:03,950 --> 04:21:01,979
they were wanting to tell me about some

4272
04:21:04,969 --> 04:21:03,960
mishaps that happened so I kind of want

4273
04:21:07,250 --> 04:21:04,979
to hear a little bit more about those

4274
04:21:08,570 --> 04:21:07,260
because they haven't told me yet yes so

4275
04:21:10,610 --> 04:21:08,580
the first part of the flight went great

4276
04:21:13,729 --> 04:21:10,620
I went straight up we're talking 5 000

4277
04:21:16,309 --> 04:21:13,739
feet we achieved 47.53 uh Dro came out

4278
04:21:19,370 --> 04:21:16,319
of apogee uh as planned uh will happen

4279
04:21:21,349 --> 04:21:19,380
at Maine we ejected the main at 5 50 but

4280
04:21:24,889 --> 04:21:21,359
it inflated right away but the booster

4281
04:21:27,050 --> 04:21:24,899
section actually ran into the uh the

4282
04:21:28,670 --> 04:21:27,060
main parachute got all tangled up

4283
04:21:30,410 --> 04:21:28,680
um and it was probably around like 100

4284
04:21:32,870 --> 04:21:30,420
feet from the ground before it finally

4285
04:21:35,210 --> 04:21:32,880
got entangled and then finally luckily

4286
04:21:38,090 --> 04:21:35,220
it was able to re-inflate and bring the

4287
04:21:39,650 --> 04:21:38,100
rocket down safely that's awesome and uh

4288
04:21:41,450 --> 04:21:39,660
this isn't just your first year you were

4289
04:21:42,830 --> 04:21:41,460
telling me that you not only had to

4290
04:21:44,809 --> 04:21:42,840
learn how to get prepped for this

4291
04:21:46,610 --> 04:21:44,819
challenge but uh that you had to do it

4292
04:21:48,469 --> 04:21:46,620
sort of being your own Mentor so talk to

4293
04:21:50,090 --> 04:21:48,479
me a little bit about that yeah so I

4294
04:21:52,250 --> 04:21:50,100
mean it was a lot of just like just

4295
04:21:53,990 --> 04:21:52,260
going out doing our own research uh just

4296
04:21:55,610 --> 04:21:54,000
attending as many launches as we could

4297
04:21:57,229 --> 04:21:55,620
uh just getting as much launch

4298
04:21:59,030 --> 04:21:57,239
experience as we could so just make sure

4299
04:22:01,790 --> 04:21:59,040
we can come out here and do things do

4300
04:22:05,090 --> 04:22:01,800
things as smoothly as possible

4301
04:22:07,670 --> 04:22:05,100
yeah I mean another thing sorry about

4302
04:22:09,229 --> 04:22:07,680
um the team is uh obviously we have most

4303
04:22:11,510 --> 04:22:09,239
of our team back at home

4304
04:22:13,429 --> 04:22:11,520
um hopefully watching and all the hard

4305
04:22:15,110 --> 04:22:13,439
work honestly comes from them and we

4306
04:22:17,630 --> 04:22:15,120
just try to do our best to lead them so

4307
04:22:19,610 --> 04:22:17,640
we want to say thank you to everyone

4308
04:22:21,110 --> 04:22:19,620
anything that you're most proud of for

4309
04:22:23,330 --> 04:22:21,120
your rocket anything unique about your

4310
04:22:25,490 --> 04:22:23,340
rocket

4311
04:22:26,689 --> 04:22:25,500
I really like the paint job you know we

4312
04:22:27,710 --> 04:22:26,699
have a guy back home we did a real good

4313
04:22:30,110 --> 04:22:27,720
job

4314
04:22:32,450 --> 04:22:30,120
um I'm liking I'm liking the fins uh

4315
04:22:33,830 --> 04:22:32,460
this guy over here I mean him I did a

4316
04:22:35,030 --> 04:22:33,840
lot of work with the Finns uh getting

4317
04:22:36,710 --> 04:22:35,040
all that fiberglass on so I'm really

4318
04:22:40,670 --> 04:22:36,720
proud with that I really did a great job

4319
04:22:43,910 --> 04:22:40,680
with that talk to me about this uh

4320
04:22:45,889 --> 04:22:43,920
uh yeah so it's the Lunar New Year so we

4321
04:22:47,750 --> 04:22:45,899
chose the rabbit so it's going to be a

4322
04:22:50,929 --> 04:22:47,760
very auspicious launch as it was every

4323
04:22:53,150 --> 04:22:50,939
time that we had the sticker on so

4324
04:22:55,429 --> 04:22:53,160
okay wonderful and y'all are super

4325
04:22:56,990 --> 04:22:55,439
excited for how it performs so anything

4326
04:22:59,929 --> 04:22:57,000
else you want to add thank anybody or

4327
04:23:03,590 --> 04:23:02,630

04:23:07,309 --> 04:23:05,340
everyone at home uh we can only bring

4330
04:23:08,870 --> 04:23:07,319
nine people here as you said before but

4331
04:23:10,670 --> 04:23:08,880
um a lot of hard work and time really

4332
04:23:11,929 --> 04:23:10,680
went into this so everyone back at home

4333
04:23:14,689 --> 04:23:11,939
we really appreciate everything they put

4334
04:23:16,670 --> 04:23:14,699
into it so I think that's all I have to

4335
04:23:19,130 --> 04:23:16,680
say yeah okay wonderful thank you all

4336
04:23:20,630 --> 04:23:19,140
for traveling here and for being here

4337
04:23:21,530 --> 04:23:20,640
today thank you so much wishing you the

4338
04:23:23,870 --> 04:23:21,540
best of luck in the rest of the

4339
04:23:26,630 --> 04:23:23,880
competition we're gonna check back in

4340
04:23:29,450 --> 04:23:26,640
with Lane and see what is going on with

4341
04:23:31,969 --> 04:23:29,460
the uh student launch yes okay so we

4342
04:23:32,929 --> 04:23:31,979
have another Universe joining us so

4343
04:23:35,389 --> 04:23:32,939
they're gonna

4344
04:23:36,530 --> 04:23:35,399
hey how's it going hey pretty well um

4345
04:23:38,689 --> 04:23:36,540
tell us your name and what school you're

4346
04:23:40,189 --> 04:23:38,699
from absolutely so I'm Sam Betts I am

4347
04:23:42,349 --> 04:23:40,199
from Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology

4348
04:23:44,929 --> 04:23:42,359
and I am a mechanical engineering

4349
04:23:46,370 --> 04:23:44,939
student okay awesome so tell us

4350
04:23:48,530 --> 04:23:46,380
um what's your experience today how's it

4351
04:23:50,750 --> 04:23:48,540
going absolutely so we came from Indiana

4352
04:23:52,130 --> 04:23:50,760
and we're not actually launching today

4353
04:23:53,929 --> 04:23:52,140
um it turned out that something last

4354
04:23:55,610 --> 04:23:53,939
minute went wrong for us at the critical

4355
04:23:57,050 --> 04:23:55,620
path and we didn't end up getting to

4356
04:23:58,550 --> 04:23:57,060
launch but we came anyway because we

4357
04:23:59,870 --> 04:23:58,560
wanted to learn from all the teams this

4358
04:24:01,610 --> 04:23:59,880
will be our first time at competition

4359
04:24:03,170 --> 04:24:01,620
being able to talk to the different

4360
04:24:04,130 --> 04:24:03,180
teams talk about their successes and our

4361
04:24:05,630 --> 04:24:04,140
failures

4362
04:24:07,429 --> 04:24:05,640
um and it's been fantastic and we're

4363
04:24:09,229 --> 04:24:07,439
really excited to come back next year so

4364
04:24:10,790 --> 04:24:09,239
much stronger yeah absolutely that's

4365
04:24:12,530 --> 04:24:10,800
amazing so from my understanding you

4366
04:24:14,570 --> 04:24:12,540
guys are somewhat of a new team maybe a

4367
04:24:16,490 --> 04:24:14,580
new organization on campus so tell me

4368
04:24:18,410 --> 04:24:16,500
what's been the journey with starting a

4369
04:24:20,210 --> 04:24:18,420
rocketry at rosehoven absolutely so

4370
04:24:22,250 --> 04:24:20,220
three years ago we started with the usli

4371
04:24:23,809 --> 04:24:22,260
team of around three people uh we didn't

4372
04:24:25,490 --> 04:24:23,819
get very far but the following year we

4373
04:24:27,110 --> 04:24:25,500
grew it to around six or seven we got a

4374
04:24:29,030 --> 04:24:27,120
lot farther and now they say you can see

4375
04:24:30,950 --> 04:24:29,040
all my team members here with me um and

4376
04:24:32,389 --> 04:24:30,960
we got you know this close so it's

4377
04:24:33,530 --> 04:24:32,399
really fantastic to see that slow

4378
04:24:34,790 --> 04:24:33,540
progression

4379
04:24:36,170 --> 04:24:34,800
um and eventually you know we will we

4380
04:24:38,090 --> 04:24:36,180
will get there and we will be successful

4381
04:24:40,070 --> 04:24:38,100
yes absolutely perseverance is

4382
04:24:41,330 --> 04:24:40,080
everything in a rocketry right so tell

4383
04:24:43,429 --> 04:24:41,340
me a little bit about your rocket and

4384
04:24:44,990 --> 04:24:43,439
maybe your payload yeah absolutely so

4385
04:24:47,510 --> 04:24:45,000
because we're a University team we have

4386
04:24:49,070 --> 04:24:47,520
the standard SLI payload uh the way we

4387
04:24:50,630 --> 04:24:49,080
decided to solve it was using these 3D

4388
04:24:51,830 --> 04:24:50,640
printed bearings which are really cool

4389
04:24:53,510 --> 04:24:51,840
because then you could be able to

4390
04:24:54,830 --> 04:24:53,520
iterate really really quickly so we had

4391
04:24:56,450 --> 04:24:54,840
a problem and we you know iterated

4392
04:24:57,769 --> 04:24:56,460
quickly and was able to make those

4393
04:24:59,809 --> 04:24:57,779
bearings stronger and stronger and

4394
04:25:01,070 --> 04:24:59,819
stronger in addition our payload system

4395
04:25:02,750 --> 04:25:01,080
is really cool because it's really

4396
04:25:04,309 --> 04:25:02,760
flexible we can actually use it from

4397
04:25:06,229 --> 04:25:04,319
year to year because our payload team

4398
04:25:09,290 --> 04:25:06,239
did a fantastic job designing their own

4399
04:25:11,030 --> 04:25:09,300
PCB and really really custom software to

4400
04:25:13,130 --> 04:25:11,040
be able to extend that to multiple years

4401
04:25:14,929 --> 04:25:13,140
yeah absolutely it's so cool to keep

4402
04:25:16,490 --> 04:25:14,939
hearing about 3D printing because as you

4403
04:25:17,870 --> 04:25:16,500
said you can easily recreate if you need

4404
04:25:19,910 --> 04:25:17,880
to or fix something or make a new one

4405
04:25:22,309 --> 04:25:19,920
absolutely so

4406
04:25:24,229 --> 04:25:22,319
um what else what else did you guys face

4407
04:25:25,910 --> 04:25:24,239
this year besides just starting the team

4408
04:25:28,070 --> 04:25:25,920
up and was that pretty much the main

4409
04:25:29,929 --> 04:25:28,080
challenge yeah but besides that um

4410
04:25:32,090 --> 04:25:29,939
because we are such a new team we had to

4411
04:25:33,650 --> 04:25:32,100
start with a lot of new people we don't

4412
04:25:35,809 --> 04:25:33,660
have a lot of the experience it's just

4413
04:25:37,250 --> 04:25:35,819
because we are more new so actually over

4414
04:25:38,630 --> 04:25:37,260
half of the people you see here are

4415
04:25:40,010 --> 04:25:38,640
freshmen which is really fantastic

4416
04:25:42,170 --> 04:25:40,020
because they've really took up the reins

4417
04:25:43,550 --> 04:25:42,180
and led this team uh to where it is and

4418
04:25:45,110 --> 04:25:43,560
we wouldn't be here without them so it's

4419
04:25:47,269 --> 04:25:45,120
really exciting to be able to create

4420
04:25:49,370 --> 04:25:47,279
this team for them and in going forward

4421
04:25:50,990 --> 04:25:49,380
then be able to take the reins and be

4422
04:25:53,030 --> 04:25:51,000
even more successful yeah it's awesome

4423
04:25:54,590 --> 04:25:53,040
I'm sure your future is very bright so

4424
04:25:55,729 --> 04:25:54,600
what advice would you have for a new

4425
04:25:58,010 --> 04:25:55,739
team

4426
04:25:59,750 --> 04:25:58,020
the advice that I would give is that you

4427
04:26:01,309 --> 04:25:59,760
can be the best engineer in the world

4428
04:26:02,809 --> 04:26:01,319
you know have the best math skills the

4429
04:26:04,309 --> 04:26:02,819
best CAD skills whatever but if you

4430
04:26:05,809 --> 04:26:04,319
don't have the communication skills and

4431
04:26:07,429 --> 04:26:05,819
you don't have the organizational skills

4432
04:26:09,530 --> 04:26:07,439
and you don't have the teamwork to be

4433
04:26:11,030 --> 04:26:09,540
able to implement this kind of magnitude

4434
04:26:12,649 --> 04:26:11,040
project then you're not going to be

4435
04:26:13,969 --> 04:26:12,659
successful and that is something that

4436
04:26:15,710 --> 04:26:13,979
we've learned the last couple of years

4437
04:26:17,630 --> 04:26:15,720
and we're really going to be focusing on

4438
04:26:19,969 --> 04:26:17,640
organization and project management and

4439
04:26:21,889 --> 04:26:19,979
how to get our technical skills on a

4440
04:26:23,090 --> 04:26:21,899
functioning rocket yeah absolutely so is

4441
04:26:24,950 --> 04:26:23,100
there anyone you want to shout out or

4442
04:26:26,450 --> 04:26:24,960
think today absolutely besides my

4443
04:26:28,550 --> 04:26:26,460
fantastic team

4444
04:26:29,750 --> 04:26:28,560
um here and not here of course I would

4445
04:26:31,309 --> 04:26:29,760
also like to thank our advisor Dr

4446
04:26:33,290 --> 04:26:31,319
Kirkpatrick who's been there every step

4447
04:26:35,630 --> 04:26:33,300
of the way as well as her husband who's

4448
04:26:37,189 --> 04:26:35,640
also been there every step of the way as

4449
04:26:38,870 --> 04:26:37,199
well as the people back at Rose Holman

4450
04:26:41,450 --> 04:26:38,880
including the leaders of the Bic and the

4451
04:26:42,769 --> 04:26:41,460
kick Lee and Tom as well as Roger from

4452
04:26:45,170 --> 04:26:42,779
the physics department who we wouldn't

4453
04:26:47,689 --> 04:26:45,180
have fins without so all of these people

4454
04:26:49,429 --> 04:26:47,699
and then of course SGA for giving us a

4455
04:26:50,630 --> 04:26:49,439

of the youngest teams at this

4465
04:27:10,809 --> 04:27:08,040
competition uh they have come to us from

4466
04:27:13,130 --> 04:27:10,819
South Carolina from Charleston I believe

4467
04:27:15,290 --> 04:27:13,140
Charlottesville there we go um please

4468

on the team hi I'm Alex Brown I'm the

4470
04:27:21,950 --> 04:27:19,920
team lead I'm Jake cap and I was the

4471
04:27:23,750 --> 04:27:21,960
payload leads okay and talk to me about

4472
04:27:25,490 --> 04:27:23,760
being one of the youngest teams here

4473
04:27:27,950 --> 04:27:25,500
just sort of how you got to this

4474
04:27:30,050 --> 04:27:27,960
position and uh how you're working with

4475
04:27:32,389 --> 04:27:30,060
your mentors to just you know learn what

4476
04:27:33,950 --> 04:27:32,399
it takes yeah so it's a really great uh

4477
04:27:37,070 --> 04:27:33,960
experience especially for the Boy Scouts

4478
04:27:38,750 --> 04:27:37,080
so our age range is from 12 to 17. uh

4479
04:27:40,910 --> 04:27:38,760
we've been I've been doing this since I

4480
04:27:42,710 --> 04:27:40,920
was 12 every year it's a tradition with

4481
04:27:44,809 --> 04:27:42,720
our boy scouts and it's it's a really

4482
04:27:46,910 --> 04:27:44,819
great experience because the younger the

4483
04:27:48,410 --> 04:27:46,920
younger students get to look up to the

4484
04:27:49,550 --> 04:27:48,420
older ones as you know they've

4485
04:27:51,530 --> 04:27:49,560
progressed throughout the years of them

4486
04:27:53,450 --> 04:27:51,540
doing this program and get her get to

4487
04:27:54,950 --> 04:27:53,460
interact with the mentors you know I've

4488
04:27:55,849 --> 04:27:54,960
been doing this for years so it's a

4489
04:27:57,950 --> 04:27:55,859
really great experience and it really

4490
04:28:01,189 --> 04:27:57,960
gets the kids into

4491
04:28:02,389 --> 04:28:01,199
oh stem and rocketry early on like I

4492
04:28:05,570 --> 04:28:02,399
said I've been doing this since I was 12

4493
04:28:07,729 --> 04:28:05,580
because of that so is this one of uh

4494
04:28:09,710 --> 04:28:07,739
one of the main draws of people why they

4495
04:28:12,530 --> 04:28:09,720
would join your troop I mean this is a

4496
04:28:14,870 --> 04:28:12,540
really big deal so yes so this is

4497
04:28:17,330 --> 04:28:14,880
definitely one of our biggest things in

4498
04:28:19,550 --> 04:28:17,340
our troop no other troop in America

4499
04:28:22,729 --> 04:28:19,560
um does this competition uh this year

4500
04:28:25,370 --> 04:28:22,739
and it's a really big Outreach

4501
04:28:26,750 --> 04:28:25,380
opportunity for our troop however we are

4502
04:28:29,450 --> 04:28:26,760
still a normal Boy Scout Troop other

4503
04:28:31,729 --> 04:28:29,460
than this we meet uh separately and just

4504
04:28:34,729 --> 04:28:31,739
invite everyone in involved in our boy

4505
04:28:37,610 --> 04:28:34,739
scout troop and some uh others to join

4506
04:28:39,830 --> 04:28:37,620
sure now talk to me about any uh

4507
04:28:42,590 --> 04:28:39,840
challenges that you've had to overcome

4508
04:28:45,769 --> 04:28:42,600
uh over the course of your testing and

4509
04:28:48,110 --> 04:28:45,779
then up until today yeah so um obviously

4510
04:28:49,550 --> 04:28:48,120
because we're such a young such because

4511
04:28:51,590 --> 04:28:49,560
we're such a young team we're fairly

4512
04:28:52,969 --> 04:28:51,600
inexperienced and there's a lot of

4513
04:28:54,710 --> 04:28:52,979
things we've had to learn throughout it

4514
04:28:57,469 --> 04:28:54,720
so the payload we designed our own

4515
04:28:59,030 --> 04:28:57,479
custom boards that was a huge uh step

4516
04:29:01,370 --> 04:28:59,040
for us we obviously had to program

4517
04:29:03,950 --> 04:29:01,380
everything with most of our students not

4518
04:29:06,110 --> 04:29:03,960
having any programming experience at all

4519
04:29:07,670 --> 04:29:06,120
and overall we all go to different

4520
04:29:09,290 --> 04:29:07,680
schools so our timing is way different

4521
04:29:11,229 --> 04:29:09,300
everything we're on breaks different

4522
04:29:13,550 --> 04:29:11,239
times three day weekends different times

4523
04:29:16,309 --> 04:29:13,560
schedules our way off so just aligning

4524
04:29:17,870 --> 04:29:16,319
everything to get launch days and uh

4525
04:29:20,269 --> 04:29:17,880
meeting days that work for everyone was

4526
04:29:22,670 --> 04:29:20,279
was a huge Challenge and you know it no

4527
04:29:24,050 --> 04:29:22,680
matter how what way it went we feel like

4528
04:29:26,090 --> 04:29:24,060
we did a really great job we're super

4529
04:29:27,110 --> 04:29:26,100
proud of how it turned out and how did

4530
04:29:29,030 --> 04:29:27,120
it go today I know you've already

4531
04:29:31,610 --> 04:29:29,040
launched so how do you how how did it go

4532
04:29:34,070 --> 04:29:31,620
yes so it went it went fairly well our

4533
04:29:36,889 --> 04:29:34,080
our rocket launch was extremely

4534
04:29:39,710 --> 04:29:36,899
successful it went exactly it was

4535
04:29:41,030 --> 04:29:39,720
perfectly safe came down just feet away

4536
04:29:43,550 --> 04:29:41,040
from the pads I think we were one of the

4537
04:29:45,050 --> 04:29:43,560
closest teams uh unfortunately because

4538
04:29:47,750 --> 04:29:45,060
of some

4539
04:29:49,550 --> 04:29:47,760
um punchless items that NASA had and

4540
04:29:52,130 --> 04:29:49,560
some of the last wait uh last minute

4541
04:29:53,929 --> 04:29:52,140
wait additions we went a decent bit

4542
04:29:56,149 --> 04:29:53,939
lower than our projected altitude which

4543
04:29:57,950 --> 04:29:56,159
we were upset about but other than that

4544
04:30:00,290 --> 04:29:57,960
we were really really happy with how

4545
04:30:01,910 --> 04:30:00,300
today turned out wonderful and anybody

4546
04:30:02,929 --> 04:30:01,920
you want to thank or give a shout out to

4547
04:30:04,969 --> 04:30:02,939
you back home

4548
04:30:06,170 --> 04:30:04,979
absolutely so we have well first of all

4549
04:30:07,670 --> 04:30:06,180
obviously we'd like to give a shout out

4550
04:30:09,110 --> 04:30:07,680
to all of our adult leaders and adult

4551
04:30:11,269 --> 04:30:09,120
mentors

4552
04:30:14,990 --> 04:30:11,279
um and you know especially Tim Hoagland

4553
04:30:16,550 --> 04:30:15,000
William Brown uh and then we have a not

4554
04:30:18,290 --> 04:30:16,560
a mentor but he's just been someone who

4555
04:30:20,929 --> 04:30:18,300
we've been able to consult with use his

4556
04:30:22,130 --> 04:30:20,939
lab uh his name is Alden and he's he's

4557
04:30:23,570 --> 04:30:22,140
been really great for us I would

4558
04:30:26,269 --> 04:30:23,580
definitely like to give a huge shout out

4559
04:30:28,010 --> 04:30:26,279
to him wonderful and finally uh you know

4560
04:30:29,389 --> 04:30:28,020
the younger generation you are already

4561
04:30:31,849 --> 04:30:29,399
the youngest in the league but even

4562
04:30:33,290 --> 04:30:31,859
younger looking and wanting to get

4563
04:30:34,550 --> 04:30:33,300
involved with this what sort of advice

4564
04:30:36,950 --> 04:30:34,560
would you give them when they're

4565
04:30:39,469 --> 04:30:36,960
thinking oh that looks really hard

4566
04:30:42,410 --> 04:30:39,479
well what I would tell them is uh you

4567
04:30:43,729 --> 04:30:42,420
know it is rocket science it is hard but

4568
04:30:45,950 --> 04:30:43,739
you know you have a lot of people to

4569
04:30:48,229 --> 04:30:45,960
look up to your your mentors everybody

4570
04:30:49,729 --> 04:30:48,239
else so you're you know you can do it

4571
04:30:51,110 --> 04:30:49,739
you're going to figure it out there's

4572
04:30:52,969 --> 04:30:51,120
lots of different roles you can take on

4573
04:30:54,649 --> 04:30:52,979
just you know take it in little pieces

4574
04:30:57,110 --> 04:30:54,659
and eventually you understand it and

4575
04:30:59,030 --> 04:30:57,120
once you have started on this rocketry

4576
04:31:00,769 --> 04:30:59,040
stuff it's hard to go back so

4577
04:31:03,710 --> 04:31:00,779
wonderful thank you both so much for

4578
04:31:05,389 --> 04:31:03,720
being here uh congratulations and um

4579
04:31:06,830 --> 04:31:05,399
looking forward to hearing how

4580
04:31:08,689 --> 04:31:06,840
everything turns out thank you so much

4581
04:31:10,790 --> 04:31:08,699
thank you and we're gonna be joined by

4582
04:31:12,710 --> 04:31:10,800
Lane here again and get enough yeah on

4583
04:31:13,910 --> 04:31:12,720
NASA student wants okay so you guys may

4584
04:31:15,710 --> 04:31:13,920
have heard a little bit of commotion

4585
04:31:17,389 --> 04:31:15,720
earlier and I have someone from the team

4586
04:31:18,710 --> 04:31:17,399
so tell me what is all the excitement

4587
04:31:20,269 --> 04:31:18,720
well first of all tell me what school

4588
04:31:21,830 --> 04:31:20,279
you're from so I'm from Spring Grove

4589
04:31:24,170 --> 04:31:21,840
Area High School we're up in South

4590
04:31:25,910 --> 04:31:24,180
Central PA okay and what's your name my

4591
04:31:28,610 --> 04:31:25,920
name is Alex fiorillo okay so tell us

4592
04:31:30,410 --> 04:31:28,620
what's all the excitement about uh well

4593
04:31:32,450 --> 04:31:30,420
since we're at high school we really

4594
04:31:33,590 --> 04:31:32,460
only go for the altitude award since

4595
04:31:36,110 --> 04:31:33,600
that's one of the only few Awards we're

4596
04:31:37,490 --> 04:31:36,120
eligible for and we just looked at it

4597
04:31:40,189 --> 04:31:37,500
right here at the RSO and we were

4598
04:31:42,110 --> 04:31:40,199
exactly 4 500 on the dot well wow that

4599
04:31:44,030 --> 04:31:42,120
is so incredible for so for for those

4600
04:31:46,010 --> 04:31:44,040
who are not familiar we have

4601
04:31:47,450 --> 04:31:46,020
um the teams have to declare an out

4602
04:31:49,309 --> 04:31:47,460
months in advance before the final

4603
04:31:51,110 --> 04:31:49,319
launch and have to tell everybody where

4604
04:31:52,849 --> 04:31:51,120
they're how high their Rocket's Gonna

4605
04:31:54,889 --> 04:31:52,859
Fly so this team did something very

4606
04:31:57,170 --> 04:31:54,899
incredible so tell me how's the team

4607
04:31:59,689 --> 04:31:57,180
feeling uh well we're pretty stoked

4608
04:32:01,969 --> 04:31:59,699
we're pretty happy about it um after all

4609
04:32:03,769 --> 04:32:01,979
that we were the first rocket to fly

4610
04:32:05,990 --> 04:32:03,779
after all those delays the rocket right

4611
04:32:07,610 --> 04:32:06,000
next to us went and then it was a long

4612
04:32:08,870 --> 04:32:07,620
time for us so there's lots of lots of

4613
04:32:10,790 --> 04:32:08,880
tension lots of nerves and then

4614
04:32:12,710 --> 04:32:10,800
everything comes to a head here and so

4615
04:32:14,809 --> 04:32:12,720
it's nice to finally breathe and then

4616
04:32:16,490 --> 04:32:14,819
say you know we did it yeah absolutely

4617
04:32:18,889 --> 04:32:16,500
did you guys face any challenges or

4618
04:32:20,450 --> 04:32:18,899
difficulties this year absolutely um the

4619
04:32:22,550 --> 04:32:20,460
payload especially presented a lot of

4620
04:32:25,250 --> 04:32:22,560
difficulties it was something that we

4621
04:32:28,130 --> 04:32:25,260
hadn't done anything like it before

4622
04:32:30,769 --> 04:32:28,140
um radio communication and

4623
04:32:32,450 --> 04:32:30,779
um lots of different new devices new

4624
04:32:35,929 --> 04:32:32,460
programming and and that sort of things

4625
04:32:39,110 --> 04:32:35,939
we have to learn as we go and

4626
04:32:41,689 --> 04:32:39,120
um improve and and all of that so it was

4627
04:32:43,969 --> 04:32:41,699
a lot of learning and working together

4628
04:32:45,649 --> 04:32:43,979
and going into new fields that our team

4629
04:32:47,090 --> 04:32:45,659
hadn't gotten into before so that was

4630
04:32:48,469 --> 04:32:47,100
probably one of our biggest challenges

4631
04:32:50,090 --> 04:32:48,479
yeah yeah so yes tell me a little bit

4632
04:32:52,969 --> 04:32:50,100
more about your payload what exactly did

4633
04:32:54,889 --> 04:32:52,979
it do uh so the goal of our payload is

4634
04:32:56,450 --> 04:32:54,899
to find the altitude velocity and

4635
04:32:58,849 --> 04:32:56,460
acceleration of the rocket using a

4636
04:33:00,769 --> 04:32:58,859
system called trilateration where we use

4637
04:33:03,050 --> 04:33:00,779
radio communication to pretty much

4638
04:33:05,209 --> 04:33:03,060
estimate the distance from a transmitter

4639
04:33:06,830 --> 04:33:05,219
on the rocket to a series of three

4640
04:33:08,990 --> 04:33:06,840
ground stations we have back in our prep

4641
04:33:11,269 --> 04:33:09,000
area and then once we have those three

4642
04:33:13,310 --> 04:33:11,279
distances through a lot of funky

4643
04:33:15,289 --> 04:33:13,320
geometry and and all that we can pretty

4644
04:33:18,769 --> 04:33:15,299
much find the coordinates of the rocket

4645
04:33:20,449 --> 04:33:18,779
in a 3D space and then you know we take

4646
04:33:21,890 --> 04:33:20,459
that find the altitude and altitude over

4647
04:33:23,510 --> 04:33:21,900
time velocity velocity over time

4648
04:33:25,670 --> 04:33:23,520
acceleration awesome

4649
04:33:26,990 --> 04:33:25,680
did you guys have a special name Ock it

4650
04:33:29,631 --> 04:33:27,000
or payload or anything

4651
04:33:32,209 --> 04:33:29,641
uh yeah so our Rocket's called Hyperion

4652
04:33:33,730 --> 04:33:32,219
um yeah okay well I did great today

4653
04:33:35,929 --> 04:33:33,740
thank you so much for talking with me

4654
04:33:37,310 --> 04:33:35,939
congratulations on meeting your altitude

4655
04:33:38,631 --> 04:33:37,320
goals and enjoy the rest of the

4656
04:33:40,970 --> 04:33:38,641
competition absolutely thank you very

4657

primary divisions College University or

4688
05:02:49,430 --> 05:02:45,660
usli and middle school high school or

4689
05:02:51,230 --> 05:02:49,440
SLI each year usli teams are tasked with

4690
05:02:53,930 --> 05:02:51,240
completing a unique payload or Mission

4691
05:02:55,788 --> 05:02:53,940
objective SLI teams are permitted to

4692
05:02:57,530 --> 05:02:55,798
develop a science experiment where

4693
05:02:59,868 --> 05:02:57,540
engineering payload appropriate to their

4694
05:03:02,208 --> 05:02:59,878
capabilities and curriculum

4695
05:03:03,890 --> 05:03:02,218
how high do rockets go for our

4696
05:03:07,310 --> 05:03:03,900
competition they'll reach altitudes

4697
05:03:09,350 --> 05:03:07,320
between 3 500 and 6 000 feet instead of

4698
05:03:11,208 --> 05:03:09,360
trying to fly the highest teams try to

4699
05:03:13,190 --> 05:03:11,218
fly the closest to their target altitude

4700
05:03:15,650 --> 05:03:13,200
which they submit during the preliminary

4701
05:03:18,050 --> 05:03:15,660
design review a full six months before

4702
05:03:19,970 --> 05:03:18,060

ready to fly so now let's send it on

4755
05:10:19,190 --> 05:10:17,760
over to Gerald for commentary for launch

4756
05:10:26,090 --> 05:10:19,200
and thanks for joining us let's see

4757
05:10:30,948 --> 05:10:28,490
all right

4758
05:10:32,690 --> 05:10:30,958
okay we're gonna find some Rockets we

4759
05:10:34,490 --> 05:10:32,700
are at a rocket launch does everyone

4760
05:10:37,128 --> 05:10:34,500
want a piece of Rockets or no

4761
05:10:38,150 --> 05:10:37,138
okay there's a couple people we'll do it

4762
05:10:40,730 --> 05:10:38,160

[Music]

4767
05:11:24,110 --> 05:11:22,910
okay we're actually gonna start on the

4768
05:11:26,868 --> 05:11:24,120
20s

4769
05:11:30,170 --> 05:11:26,878
so we're gonna sort of pad 20 and we're

4770
05:11:31,970 --> 05:11:30,180
getting the flight card here right now

4771
05:11:34,910 --> 05:11:31,980
I'm doing a little bit of a lunch box

4772
05:11:37,128 --> 05:11:34,920
issue on 10 11 12.

4773
05:11:40,010 --> 05:11:37,138
oh it's okay don't worry your rocket

4774
05:11:42,288 --> 05:11:40,020
will still fly just wait

4775
05:11:46,310 --> 05:11:42,298
okay we're gonna go to pad number 20.

4776
05:11:51,230 --> 05:11:49,070
okay yeah uh Team Hydra this is math

4777
05:11:52,788 --> 05:11:51,240
Mania robotics at a Mission Viejo

4778
05:11:55,310 --> 05:11:52,798
California

4779
05:11:58,368 --> 05:11:55,320
the name rocket is

4780
05:12:01,670 --> 05:11:58,378
I'm it's Cena and Cena

4781
05:12:03,830 --> 05:12:01,680
okay this is 27 pound rocket

4782
05:12:05,150 --> 05:12:03,840
Orange in diameter seven feet seven

4783
05:12:07,010 --> 05:12:05,160
inches tall

4784
05:12:09,830 --> 05:12:07,020
yeah pathetically I'm not sure how to

4785
05:12:12,948 --> 05:12:09,840
pronounce this I apologize the other

4786
05:12:18,650 --> 05:12:12,958
vehicle notes is the apogee is 5000 feet

4787
05:12:21,890 --> 05:12:18,660
we have split fins because it looks bad

4788
05:12:25,368 --> 05:12:21,900
at sign dollar sign dollar sign

4789
05:12:28,430 --> 05:12:25,378
is a it is green because of the name in

4790
05:12:31,610 --> 05:12:28,440
clina which is hydra's mother I think

4791
05:12:34,190 --> 05:12:31,620
it's a it's uh tie into Greek mythology

4792
05:12:36,470 --> 05:12:34,200
the experimentation information is a

4793
05:12:40,610 --> 05:12:36,480
sled spinner we are doing the university

4794
05:12:43,490 --> 05:12:40,620
challenge an rrc 3 detects Landing then

4795
05:12:46,490 --> 05:12:43,500
our sleds rotate until the camera is

4796
05:12:52,070 --> 05:12:46,500
oriented around a two axis using an IMU

4797
05:12:54,350 --> 05:12:52,080
then the RTL SP or SDR receives and

4798
05:12:57,470 --> 05:12:54,360
decodes the APR commands our Raspberry

4799
05:12:59,628 --> 05:12:57,480
Pi controls the separate motor and

4800
05:13:02,390 --> 05:12:59,638
camera to follow the commands our team

4801
05:13:05,390 --> 05:13:02,400
is nine students in middle and high

4802
05:13:07,850 --> 05:13:05,400
school our team is split between two

4803
05:13:10,670 --> 05:13:07,860
counties and we are two hours apart

4804
05:13:12,708 --> 05:13:10,680
we attend all six different schools most

4805
05:13:15,708 --> 05:13:12,718
of the team flew here but one of our

4806
05:13:17,570 --> 05:13:15,718
team members drove the 32 hours from

4807
05:13:20,330 --> 05:13:17,580
California with our mentors let's give

4808
05:13:24,410 --> 05:13:20,340
them a hand that's quite a Quite a feat

4809
05:13:29,330 --> 05:13:26,750
okay so yeah this is going to be pad

4810
05:13:31,310 --> 05:13:29,340
number 20 the green rocket in front of

4811
05:13:34,010 --> 05:13:31,320
us pad 20.

4812
05:13:37,550 --> 05:13:34,020
we have a clear sky we have a clear

4813
05:13:47,770 --> 05:13:37,560
range we are going to launch pad 20 in

4814
05:13:52,850 --> 05:13:49,850
split fin to get that little bit of

4815
05:13:52,860 --> 05:14:01,010
starting our governor

4816
05:14:01,020 --> 05:14:04,490
there's an event

4817
05:14:11,510 --> 05:14:07,910
go parachutes out

4818
05:14:15,410 --> 05:14:11,520
should have went 5000 feet on the K 1085

4819
05:14:27,170 --> 05:14:15,420
white Thunder I would agree on that one

4820
05:14:32,690 --> 05:14:29,090
okay we're probably about

4821
05:14:40,310 --> 05:14:32,700
1500 feet right now

4822
05:14:47,410 --> 05:14:43,550
okay about 800 feet right now should

4823
05:14:51,590 --> 05:14:49,250
would be good

4824
05:14:54,650 --> 05:14:51,600
now it opens

4825
05:15:15,350 --> 05:14:57,410
all of Southern California was involved

4826
05:15:21,110 --> 05:15:18,230
yeah pad 21 we have Cedar Falls rocket

4827
05:15:22,430 --> 05:15:21,120
club out of Cedar Falls

4828
05:15:25,810 --> 05:15:22,440

4 500 feet on a k-1440 white Thunder

4834
05:15:41,448 --> 05:15:39,480
this does have the experiment

05:15:53,810 --> 05:15:50,760
this does guides this this will guide

4840
05:15:57,650 --> 05:15:53,820
students to Landing after flight

4841
05:16:00,288 --> 05:15:57,660
our students will guide it after flight

4842
05:16:02,270 --> 05:16:00,298
and then oh yeah this is the one where I

4843
05:16:04,190 --> 05:16:02,280
think it they the team made their own

4844
05:16:06,708 --> 05:16:04,200
drone for this one so the Drone will fly

4845
05:16:09,650 --> 05:16:06,718
out and fly where it needs to go

4846
05:16:12,350 --> 05:16:09,660
the uh rocket is painted is represented

4847
05:16:15,110 --> 05:16:12,360
I guess the Raven from the Marvel movies

4848
05:16:17,510 --> 05:16:15,120
Odin and Raven and it was painted by a

4849
05:16:19,368 --> 05:16:17,520
local artist the team did let me know to

4850
05:16:22,368 --> 05:16:19,378
make their own drone from scratch was

4851
05:16:25,070 --> 05:16:22,378
quite challenging and the payload drives

4852
05:16:28,670 --> 05:16:25,080
the name of the rocket also is a unique

4853
05:16:31,310 --> 05:16:28,680
story as their team's advisor competed

4854
05:16:39,470 --> 05:16:31,320
in the very first tart competition back

4855
05:16:56,510 --> 05:16:42,948
trying to yeah being on hold for a plane

4856
05:17:03,070 --> 05:16:59,570
okay we're gonna launch project Raven on

4857
05:17:05,448 --> 05:17:03,080
pad number 21 so that's in front of us

4858
05:17:07,490 --> 05:17:05,458
look all the way to the right it is the

4859
05:17:10,190 --> 05:17:07,500
one second from the right

4860
05:17:11,750 --> 05:17:10,200
okay pad 21 we have a clear sky we have

4861
05:17:20,810 --> 05:17:11,760
a clear range we're going to launch in

4862
05:17:20,820 --> 05:17:26,150
good boost on that one

4863
05:17:26,160 --> 05:17:31,070
I straight up boost on that

4864
05:17:31,080 --> 05:17:34,850
arcing over

4865
05:17:34,860 --> 05:17:41,330
there's an event drug parachute is out

4866
05:17:44,930 --> 05:17:42,890
so that one should go about that shirt

4867
05:17:50,330 --> 05:17:44,940
one should have went 4 500 feet with the

4868
05:17:54,948 --> 05:17:52,550
oh

4869
05:18:10,788 --> 05:17:54,958
funny so still can see under under

4870
05:18:10,798 --> 05:18:16,128
still about 1500 feet out

4871
05:18:19,390 --> 05:18:17,930
okay now we're about a thousand feet so

4872
05:18:22,310 --> 05:18:19,400
we should have the main here any moment

4873
05:18:29,810 --> 05:18:22,320
there it is

4874
05:18:33,288 --> 05:18:32,090
so there's supposed to be maybe a drone

4875
05:18:35,390 --> 05:18:33,298
flying out or is that I don't know if

4876
05:18:38,628 --> 05:18:35,400
that's upon Landing

4877
05:18:40,070 --> 05:18:38,638
oh it's on Landing

4878
05:18:43,368 --> 05:18:40,080
so we should be able to see something

4879
05:18:48,590 --> 05:18:43,378
here it's all right in front of us

4880
05:18:53,150 --> 05:18:50,270
I was hoping to see a little drone come

4881
05:18:55,788 --> 05:18:53,160
out maybe not

4882
05:18:57,650 --> 05:18:55,798
it's just gonna stay I guess uh parked

4883
05:19:01,760 --> 05:18:57,660
for the moment okay we're gonna go to

4884
05:19:01,770 --> 05:19:07,730
[Music]

4885
05:19:07,740 --> 05:19:21,470
no no

4886
05:19:29,510 --> 05:19:24,350
okay I'm pad 22 we have East Aurora High

4887
05:19:31,010 --> 05:19:29,520
School in East East Aurora New York

4888
05:19:34,490 --> 05:19:31,020
the name of this or the name of this

4889
05:19:37,430 --> 05:19:34,500
project is Project New Heights 25 pound

4890
05:19:40,310 --> 05:19:37,440
rocket five and a half inch diameter six

4891
05:19:43,270 --> 05:19:40,320
feet one inch tall this is the fifth

4892
05:19:46,368 --> 05:19:43,280
full-scale flight third on this airframe

4893
05:19:50,930 --> 05:19:46,378
on the experiment information it has the

4894
05:19:58,490 --> 05:19:54,530
pronounce neat I 360. it has got near

4895
05:20:02,690 --> 05:19:58,500
infrared atmospheric Imaging system in

4896
05:20:04,070 --> 05:20:02,700
360 Degrees swing at Aerotech k700 White

4897
05:20:06,770 --> 05:20:04,080
Lightning

4898
05:20:09,070 --> 05:20:06,780
and this rocket should go

4899
05:20:11,150 --> 05:20:09,080
don't have a because it's an unknown

4900
05:20:13,368 --> 05:20:11,160
estimated altitude at least for my

4901
05:20:15,890 --> 05:20:13,378
paperwork this one does Carry Three

4902
05:20:18,230 --> 05:20:15,900
GoPro cameras and measures pressure and

4903
05:20:20,990 --> 05:20:18,240
temperature it doesn't infrared lens has

4904
05:20:22,970 --> 05:20:21,000
a 3D printed nose cone this is the

4905
05:20:25,070 --> 05:20:22,980
second rocket that was built in four

4906
05:20:27,050 --> 05:20:25,080
days after the first one had a higher

4907
05:20:28,730 --> 05:20:27,060
than normal descent rate whatever that

4908
05:20:30,830 --> 05:20:28,740
means

4909
05:20:33,350 --> 05:20:30,840
is a small and mighty team of six

4910
05:20:35,948 --> 05:20:33,360
members a very tenacious group The

4911
05:20:38,330 --> 05:20:35,958
Rocket crash built and rebuilt a new one

4912
05:20:39,530 --> 05:20:38,340
one of the team members I was hoping

4913
05:20:40,850 --> 05:20:39,540
that team members were in that Orange

4914
05:20:42,230 --> 05:20:40,860
full suit I don't know if they're

4915
05:20:46,610 --> 05:20:42,240
wearing that orange suit again maybe

4916
05:20:54,470 --> 05:20:51,890
okay so we are gonna go on the

4917
05:20:58,310 --> 05:20:54,480
project uh looks like oh Project New

4918
05:20:59,990 --> 05:20:58,320
Heights on pad 22 clear sky clear range

4919
05:21:06,170 --> 05:21:00,000
we're gonna launch this rocket in five

4920
05:21:06,180 --> 05:21:15,910
foreign

4921
05:21:15,920 --> 05:21:25,010
[Applause]

4922
05:21:36,830 --> 05:21:28,970
there is a parachute out

4923
05:22:02,868 --> 05:21:40,090
Mane is set for

4924
05:22:02,878 --> 05:22:07,610
okay so we're about 1500 feet

4925
05:22:11,448 --> 05:22:09,770
should be close to a thousand feet so

4926
05:22:14,030 --> 05:22:11,458
we'll need that main parachute any

4927
05:22:23,810 --> 05:22:16,730
there it is

4928
05:22:23,820 --> 05:22:45,770
all right

4929
05:22:48,770 --> 05:22:47,750
okay you see a couple folks walk into

4930
05:22:56,090 --> 05:22:48,780
the

4931
05:22:58,490 --> 05:22:56,100
flight card not playing anything but I

4932
05:23:00,530 --> 05:22:58,500
want to realize read the cards at 10 we

4933
05:23:03,410 --> 05:23:00,540
have Rams and Rockets from Angelo State

4934
05:23:06,010 --> 05:23:03,420
University from San Angelo Texas the

4935
05:23:10,190 --> 05:23:06,020
name of this rock is called candy Ram

4936
05:23:11,708 --> 05:23:10,200
26.7 pounds 5.15 inch diameter 8.63 feet

4937
05:23:15,410 --> 05:23:11,718
tall

4938
05:23:17,868 --> 05:23:15,420
this is other notes it says candy cane

4939
05:23:20,270 --> 05:23:17,878
inspired paint job using yellow and blue

4940
05:23:24,230 --> 05:23:20,280
spray paint the experiment information

4941
05:23:28,550 --> 05:23:24,240
is a cad Z acronym for team members

4942
05:23:40,190 --> 05:23:31,128
Okay so we've been informed that the

4943
05:23:40,200 --> 05:23:43,448
foreign

4944
05:23:57,230 --> 05:23:46,550
cell the box is on 10 11 12 does not

4945
05:24:11,930 --> 05:24:02,930
okay

4946
05:24:15,830 --> 05:24:13,788
I guess I don't need to say anything

4947
05:24:17,990 --> 05:24:15,840
they already know they're up this is a

4948
05:24:24,350 --> 05:24:18,000
team name is Draco this is a university

4949
05:24:26,750 --> 05:24:24,360
of Puerto Rico at my uh mayaguez campus

4950
05:24:30,230 --> 05:24:26,760
name of the rocket is Draco it weighs

4951
05:24:32,270 --> 05:24:30,240
50.6 pounds six inch in diameter 10 feet

4952
05:24:35,948 --> 05:24:32,280
tall the experiment information has the

4953
05:24:38,570 --> 05:24:35,958
LSR Rover autonomous self-writing Rover

4954
05:24:42,350 --> 05:24:38,580
with on-site image recognition

4955
05:24:46,930 --> 05:24:44,830
so this rocket is flying on an

4956
05:24:51,230 --> 05:24:46,940
accessoruni

4957
05:24:52,868 --> 05:24:51,240
l2375 white Thunder should go estimated

4958
05:24:56,390 --> 05:24:52,878
altitude

4959
05:24:59,270 --> 05:24:56,400
5690 feet so that'd be the type of these

4960
05:25:01,430 --> 05:24:59,280
highest projected altitude

4961
05:25:02,868 --> 05:25:01,440
and on their payload it had like a bunch

4962
05:25:05,390 --> 05:25:02,878
of chains on there so it looks like it

4963
05:25:09,410 --> 05:25:05,400
kind of moves around and then these fins

4964
05:25:11,628 --> 05:25:09,420
are elliptical slotted and mono coated

4965
05:25:14,150 --> 05:25:11,638
I also made a special unique mascot

4966
05:25:17,510 --> 05:25:14,160
their Bulldog being in a spacesuit this

4967
05:25:19,490 --> 05:25:17,520
team has 46 team members 26 of them are

4968
05:25:21,890 --> 05:25:19,500
here at the competition

4969
05:25:24,110 --> 05:25:21,900
they are full in subscale flight landing

4970
05:25:26,510 --> 05:25:24,120
it's a very very tall grass as I saw the

4971
05:25:28,128 --> 05:25:26,520
photo pretty impressive they found it on

4972
05:25:32,208 --> 05:25:28,138
pad 40 where you're going to go with

4973
05:25:34,430 --> 05:25:32,218
Draco we have a clear sky we yep had 40.

4974
05:25:36,890 --> 05:25:34,440
we have a clear sky we have a clear

4975
05:25:48,770 --> 05:25:36,900
range we're going to watch 40 in five

4976
05:25:48,780 --> 05:25:53,448
very healthy boost on that motor

4977
05:25:59,090 --> 05:25:56,230
so do we think that went the

4978
05:26:23,390 --> 05:25:59,100
5690 feet

4979
05:26:23,400 --> 05:26:28,250
okay all right

4980
05:26:28,260 --> 05:26:31,730
okay

4981
05:26:36,830 --> 05:26:34,610
main except for 700 feet so we're

4982
05:26:40,910 --> 05:26:36,840
probably about

4983
05:26:40,920 --> 05:26:45,110
about a thousand feet now

4984
05:26:52,730 --> 05:26:47,330
okay we should have a parachute any

4985
05:26:52,740 --> 05:26:59,590
[Applause]

4986
05:27:06,410 --> 05:27:03,650
shoots out they're very excited and they

4987
05:27:10,868 --> 05:27:06,420
were lucky to booster hit the parachute

4988
05:27:15,890 --> 05:27:12,650
I want to go over there with that

4989
05:27:15,900 --> 05:27:22,868
okay we're going to pad number 41.

4990
05:27:29,708 --> 05:27:26,930
okay Pat 41 this is Knights experimental

4991
05:27:32,510 --> 05:27:29,718
rocketry University of Central Florida

4992
05:27:34,910 --> 05:27:32,520
in Orlando Florida

4993
05:27:38,208 --> 05:27:34,920
name of this rocket is

4994
05:27:40,930 --> 05:27:38,218
a ski a skleet pierce thank you for

4995
05:27:44,628 --> 05:27:40,940
phonetically helping me out on that one

4996
05:27:47,628 --> 05:27:44,638
26.3 pounds 5.2 inch in diameter

4997
05:27:51,470 --> 05:27:47,638
6.9 feet tall has an orange lower body

4998
05:27:53,930 --> 05:27:51,480
white upper body and a black switchband

4999
05:27:56,050 --> 05:27:53,940
does have a payload integrated launch

5000
05:27:59,150 --> 05:27:56,060
log called the pill let's say

5001
05:28:02,170 --> 05:27:59,160
self-orienting cylinder with Deployable

5002
05:28:05,930 --> 05:28:02,180
camera this is flying on a

5003
05:28:08,868 --> 05:28:05,940
k1000 elite Blue Thunder

5004
05:28:10,970 --> 05:28:08,878
should go about 5500 feet

5005
05:28:12,170 --> 05:28:10,980
and then they named it based on the pill

5006
05:28:16,970 --> 05:28:12,180
as their

5007
05:28:18,230 --> 05:28:16,980
to a creepiest that is hard for me to

5008
05:28:21,250 --> 05:28:18,240
pronounce but it does stand for

5009
05:28:23,390 --> 05:28:21,260
represents the Greek god of medicine

5010
05:28:26,030 --> 05:28:23,400
earlier when I saw it this week the

5011
05:28:28,670 --> 05:28:26,040
rocket was not painted now it is painted

5012
05:28:30,288 --> 05:28:28,680
so between when they had it they got

5013
05:28:32,448 --> 05:28:30,298
some paint on it

5014
05:28:34,190 --> 05:28:32,458
and they also do carry the second

5015
05:28:36,530 --> 05:28:34,200
biggest quick links out here at a

5016
05:28:40,430 --> 05:28:36,540
whopping 4 600 pound brake Force for

5017
05:28:43,610 --> 05:28:41,810
um it looks like oh and this team is

5018
05:28:45,590 --> 05:28:43,620
also very proud they can get this rocket

5019
05:28:48,170 --> 05:28:45,600
ready and prepared within 15 minutes

5020
05:28:50,090 --> 05:28:48,180
they have a lot of carbon fiber on it

5021
05:28:52,128 --> 05:28:50,100
and used a lot of it as building

5022
05:28:54,350 --> 05:28:52,138
components the team didn't have to

5023
05:28:56,990 --> 05:28:54,360
overcome some subscale and full-scale

5024
05:28:58,670 --> 05:28:57,000
flights the first one didn't fare well

5025
05:29:01,910 --> 05:28:58,680
you'll have to ask him about it it

5026
05:29:05,090 --> 05:29:01,920
landed in the only one canal in miles so

5027
05:29:07,010 --> 05:29:05,100
they did say it is submarine tested I'm

5028
05:29:10,490 --> 05:29:07,020
not sure what that means but the rocket

5029
05:29:12,590 --> 05:29:10,500
is sub submarine tested and approved on

5030
05:29:18,830 --> 05:29:12,600
pad 41 we are going to launch eclepius

5031
05:29:29,330 --> 05:29:21,530
clear sky clear range we're gonna launch

5032
05:29:37,910 --> 05:29:29,580
[Applause]

5033
05:29:37,920 --> 05:29:43,550
starting to Arc over

5034
05:29:43,560 --> 05:29:48,230
there's an event

5035
05:29:53,208 --> 05:29:50,390
drove parachutes out the main except for

5036
05:29:57,590 --> 05:29:56,030
thank you Central Florida assisting on

5037
05:30:02,510 --> 05:29:57,600
the countdown they are the only team

5038
05:30:05,868 --> 05:30:04,610
their main pair shoots out a little

5039
05:30:08,330 --> 05:30:05,878
early

5040
05:30:12,708 --> 05:30:08,340
I don't unless that's 600 feet but I

5041
05:30:19,610 --> 05:30:14,570
so we're going for the K parachute

5042
05:30:24,800 --> 05:30:21,470
that one's gonna be hanging up there for

5043
05:30:24,810 --> 05:30:35,110
[Music]

5044
05:30:41,090 --> 05:30:38,628
I hear the UCF chants they're pretty

5045
05:30:43,550 --> 05:30:41,100
excited and pumped

5046
05:30:45,890 --> 05:30:43,560
we will continue on we'll keep an eye on

5047
05:30:57,430 --> 05:30:45,900
that that one up in the air right now so

5048
05:31:03,590 --> 05:31:01,788
yep pad 42 we have Wildcat rocketry this

5049
05:31:06,530 --> 05:31:03,600
is Central Washington University of

5050
05:31:07,910 --> 05:31:06,540
Ellensburg Washington name of this

5051
05:31:09,410 --> 05:31:07,920
rocket so I was like one person's

5052
05:31:10,810 --> 05:31:09,420
excited the name of the rocket is

5053
05:31:14,390 --> 05:31:10,820
dragonfly

5054
05:31:17,690 --> 05:31:14,400
35.7 pounds five inches in diameter

5055
05:31:19,850 --> 05:31:17,700
uh nine feet ten inches tall

5056
05:31:21,170 --> 05:31:19,860
the experiment information is Project

5057
05:31:23,990 --> 05:31:21,180
rocks

5058
05:31:26,330 --> 05:31:24,000
reception and operation of command

5059
05:31:27,530 --> 05:31:26,340
sequence after landing the nose cone

5060
05:31:29,208 --> 05:31:27,540
separates

5061
05:31:30,770 --> 05:31:29,218
that's when the main parachute was

5062
05:31:32,868 --> 05:31:30,780
supposed to come out it's got a little

5063
05:31:34,910 --> 05:31:32,878
got a little early

5064
05:31:37,250 --> 05:31:34,920
after landing the nose cone separates

5065
05:31:41,030 --> 05:31:37,260
via linear

5066
05:31:42,948 --> 05:31:41,040
actuator and Camera extends like a

5067
05:31:45,650 --> 05:31:42,958
periscope

5068
05:31:50,570 --> 05:31:45,660
so this rocket is flying on Aerotech 11l

5069
05:31:52,550 --> 05:31:50,580
1115 Redline should go 5000 feet

5070
05:31:55,368 --> 05:31:52,560
oh this rocket I remember looking at the

5071
05:31:57,170 --> 05:31:55,378
at the avionics thing

5072
05:31:58,730 --> 05:31:57,180
add some of the biggest switches I've

5073
05:32:00,650 --> 05:31:58,740
ever seen I don't know where they Source

5074
05:32:02,208 --> 05:32:00,660
those switches from but probably could

5075
05:32:04,490 --> 05:32:02,218
turn on a whole city they're as big as

5076
05:32:07,010 --> 05:32:04,500
the biggest ones I've seen the team

5077
05:32:08,868 --> 05:32:07,020
names they always base their names off

5078
05:32:10,730 --> 05:32:08,878
of insects so this year was the

5079
05:32:13,128 --> 05:32:10,740
dragonfly and then they painted that

5080
05:32:14,690 --> 05:32:13,138
into the rocket as well I also found out

5081
05:32:16,970 --> 05:32:14,700
with the paint drop it took him over

5082
05:32:18,890 --> 05:32:16,980
five hours to mask off and paint the

5083
05:32:20,150 --> 05:32:18,900
rocket but they were very committed to

5084
05:32:22,970 --> 05:32:20,160
style points which I don't know if

5085
05:32:25,310 --> 05:32:22,980
that's a area to qualify for but maybe

5086
05:32:28,010 --> 05:32:25,320
it is a part of the competition okay on

5087
05:32:31,430 --> 05:32:28,020
pad 42 we're gonna fly the dragonfly L

5088
05:32:35,090 --> 05:32:31,440
1150 closed sky clear range we were

5089
05:32:37,550 --> 05:32:35,100
launching five four three two one

5090
05:32:48,010 --> 05:32:37,560
ignition

5091
05:32:48,020 --> 05:32:52,550
looks good right in the clear blue sky

5092
05:32:52,560 --> 05:32:57,110
slowly starting to Arc over

5093
05:32:57,120 --> 05:33:00,708
there is a drogue event

5094
05:33:04,810 --> 05:33:03,170
okay first part's looking good main is

5095
05:33:16,910 --> 05:33:04,820
set for

5096
05:33:37,250 --> 05:33:18,650
that one probably definitely went all

5097
05:33:45,110 --> 05:33:39,288
so we're still probably about 1500 feet

5098
05:33:53,030 --> 05:33:47,750
okay about a thousand feet so pretty

5099
05:33:53,040 --> 05:33:58,550
there it is

5100
05:34:04,250 --> 05:34:00,470
okay looks like a really good flight on

5101
05:34:10,910 --> 05:34:07,368
yep going for closest to the pad

5102
05:34:15,110 --> 05:34:10,920
okay I'm pad 43 we have Buckeye space

5103
05:34:17,930 --> 05:34:15,120
launch initiative the school is the Ohio

5104
05:34:22,550 --> 05:34:17,940
State University in Columbus Ohio

5105
05:34:27,350 --> 05:34:24,530
what was that no but the name of the

5106
05:34:31,010 --> 05:34:27,360
rocket is Cosmos not to be mixed up with

5107
05:34:34,430 --> 05:34:31,020
North Dakota Cosmo so Cosmos here Cosmo

5108
05:34:35,930 --> 05:34:34,440
earlier this is the first time this team

5109
05:34:38,930 --> 05:34:35,940
has ever had a flight in Huntsville

5110
05:34:42,110 --> 05:34:38,940
Alabama it's a 34 pound rocket six inch

5111
05:34:43,990 --> 05:34:42,120
in diameter 9.33 feet tall they want to

5112
05:34:47,690 --> 05:34:44,000
say thank you to

5113
05:34:49,550 --> 05:34:47,700
Spring Grove for help on the motor so

5114
05:34:51,948 --> 05:34:49,560
thank you nice for the teams to kind of

5115
05:34:53,810 --> 05:34:51,958
work together on this one they use the

5116
05:34:57,410 --> 05:34:53,820
experiment information it's called clamp

5117
05:34:59,330 --> 05:34:57,420
camera Lander area mapping payload has a

5118
05:35:02,270 --> 05:34:59,340
servo motor powers

5119
05:35:04,490 --> 05:35:02,280
Twist of leads and screws attached to

5120
05:35:06,410 --> 05:35:04,500
the nose cone the nose come separates

5121
05:35:09,470 --> 05:35:06,420
from the body tube and the camera then

5122
05:35:13,850 --> 05:35:12,170
this is flying on an Aerotech

5123
05:35:15,830 --> 05:35:13,860
oh no actually you know it's changed

5124
05:35:18,830 --> 05:35:15,840
it's flying on a cesaroni

5125
05:35:19,910 --> 05:35:18,840
K 1440 I think it's the white Thunder

5126
05:35:22,430 --> 05:35:19,920
motor

5127
05:35:25,250 --> 05:35:22,440
maybe 4 800 feet I'd probably say

5128
05:35:27,470 --> 05:35:25,260
probably close to 4 000 feet oh and with

5129
05:35:29,270 --> 05:35:27,480
this rocket in the payload section it

5130
05:35:31,128 --> 05:35:29,280
had the most wires I've ever seen I

5131
05:35:32,690 --> 05:35:31,138
think they took a computer took all the

5132
05:35:34,850 --> 05:35:32,700
wires out of it and stuffed it into that

5133
05:35:36,530 --> 05:35:34,860
payload it was very organized with just

5134
05:35:38,390 --> 05:35:36,540
a lot of wires

5135
05:35:39,590 --> 05:35:38,400
they did say in the subscale flight the

5136
05:35:41,750 --> 05:35:39,600
nose cone went away I don't know what

5137
05:35:43,788 --> 05:35:41,760
they mean by went away but they had to

5138
05:35:45,890 --> 05:35:43,798
do another nose cone

5139
05:35:47,448 --> 05:35:45,900
they said usually when you attach the

5140
05:35:49,550 --> 05:35:47,458
nose cone that's a good thing so they

5141
05:35:51,890 --> 05:35:49,560
must have forgot to do that

5142
05:35:53,330 --> 05:35:51,900
this is the fourth year the team has

5143
05:35:55,670 --> 05:35:53,340
competed though it's the first time

5144
05:35:58,310 --> 05:35:55,680
they've made it out here this is a 30

5145
05:36:00,650 --> 05:35:58,320
person team on this project and the

5146
05:36:02,690 --> 05:36:00,660
university has a total of over a hundred

5147
05:36:04,910 --> 05:36:02,700
team members involved with the rocketry

5148
05:36:10,910 --> 05:36:04,920
on campus a very big group

5149
05:36:12,708 --> 05:36:10,920
okay pad 43 the Cosmos on the k-1440 we

5150
05:36:16,550 --> 05:36:12,718
have a clear sky we have a clear range

5151
05:36:18,410 --> 05:36:16,560
we will launch in five four three two

5152
05:36:24,530 --> 05:36:18,420
one ignition

5153
05:36:31,208 --> 05:36:29,510
a like mild Corkscrew on the ascent part

5154
05:36:34,970 --> 05:36:31,218
you probably have to guess

5155
05:36:41,690 --> 05:36:34,980
maybe up to 3000 feet there is a drug on

5156
05:36:41,700 --> 05:36:46,550
main is set for 600 feet

5157
05:36:52,128 --> 05:36:48,530
we should probably be about 1500 feet

5158
05:36:55,850 --> 05:36:53,570
it's gonna be about a thousand so any

5159
05:36:58,850 --> 05:36:55,860
moment now we should see the main

5160
05:37:01,010 --> 05:36:58,860
there's the main the main needs to open

5161
05:37:01,920 --> 05:37:01,020
get some air under there

5162
05:37:07,190 --> 05:37:01,930
there it is

5163
05:37:10,730 --> 05:37:08,810
all right nice showing for the first

5164
05:37:11,890 --> 05:37:10,740
time out here good looks like to be a

5165
05:37:13,430 --> 05:37:11,900
good flight

5166
05:37:15,830 --> 05:37:13,440
[Music]

5167
05:37:20,390 --> 05:37:15,840
well one person is really excited I can

5168
05:37:20,400 --> 05:37:28,550
okay we're going to now pad number 60

5169
05:37:36,948 --> 05:37:30,470
.

5170
05:37:41,090 --> 05:37:36,958
yeah but when a pad 60 this is NASA at

5171
05:37:43,970 --> 05:37:41,100
yeah NASA at SL at VT this is Virginia

5172
05:37:46,550 --> 05:37:43,980
Tech at a Blacksburg Virginia

5173
05:37:48,850 --> 05:37:46,560
the name of this rocket is the fighting

5174
05:37:52,430 --> 05:37:48,860
gobbler 54 pounds

5175
05:37:56,570 --> 05:37:52,440
6.17 inch diameter

5176
05:37:58,128 --> 05:37:56,580
uh length is 146 feet tall that is a

5177
05:38:00,590 --> 05:37:58,138
really tall rocket

5178
05:38:03,890 --> 05:38:00,600
the other vehicle notes is this a lipo

5179
05:38:05,868 --> 05:38:03,900
located in Upper forward section

5180
05:38:07,368 --> 05:38:05,878
okay I feel like a lot of rockets have

5181
05:38:09,590 --> 05:38:07,378
LiPO batteries but they wanted to call

5182
05:38:12,788 --> 05:38:09,600
that one out the experiment information

5183
05:38:16,250 --> 05:38:12,798
is called Owl is an autonomous camera

5184
05:38:20,090 --> 05:38:16,260
receding radio commands

5185
05:38:21,288 --> 05:38:20,100
this one is flying on a Aerotech l1420

5186
05:38:24,650 --> 05:38:21,298
Red Line

5187
05:38:26,690 --> 05:38:24,660
should go about 5 000 feet this was a

5188
05:38:28,610 --> 05:38:26,700
pretty unique rocket with the payload I

5189
05:38:31,788 --> 05:38:28,620
saw the camera that rotates in two

5190
05:38:34,310 --> 05:38:31,798
different axes axes swivels in both

5191
05:38:35,990 --> 05:38:34,320
directions and the payload is always set

5192
05:38:38,208 --> 05:38:36,000
to land upright

5193
05:38:40,670 --> 05:38:38,218
had a really cool paint job as it faded

5194
05:38:43,430 --> 05:38:40,680
into the school team colors this team

5195
05:38:45,650 --> 05:38:43,440
also has about 30 to 32 team members and

5196
05:38:47,990 --> 05:38:45,660
16 of them are here today

5197
05:38:50,990 --> 05:38:48,000
I was told the team also has their own

5198
05:38:52,850 --> 05:38:51,000
Instagram page they have a also have a

5199
05:38:54,530 --> 05:38:52,860
brochure about their rocket Labs which

5200
05:38:56,990 --> 05:38:54,540
was pretty neat to see a very well done

5201
05:38:58,850 --> 05:38:57,000
professionally brochure okay on pad 60

5202
05:39:00,530 --> 05:38:58,860
we're gonna watch the fighting gobbler

5203
05:39:04,430 --> 05:39:00,540
clear sky

5204
05:39:14,390 --> 05:39:04,440
clear range we will launch in five four

5205
05:39:14,400 --> 05:39:19,190
uh Park's looking good

5206
05:39:24,170 --> 05:39:22,430
a really nice slow Majestic takeoff easy

5207
05:39:26,390 --> 05:39:24,180
on the electronic because what they were

5208
05:39:28,368 --> 05:39:26,400
going for arcing over

5209
05:39:31,850 --> 05:39:28,378
there is an event

5210
05:39:47,810 --> 05:39:31,860
there's it's back up to the apogee

5211
05:39:54,410 --> 05:39:50,030
so we're probably about 1500 feet right

5212
05:39:59,330 --> 05:39:57,590
probably close to a thousand feet so

5213
05:40:05,208 --> 05:39:59,340
this one we should see the main pretty

5214
05:40:12,250 --> 05:40:07,430
so now is usually when you want to see

5215
05:40:19,730 --> 05:40:16,010
okay there it is

5216
05:40:23,868 --> 05:40:21,708
they did not give themselves a lot of

5217
05:40:26,628 --> 05:40:23,878
room between the upper section and the

5218
05:40:49,190 --> 05:40:26,638
lower section it's like almost right in

5219
05:40:49,200 --> 05:40:54,430
okay we're now going to pad

5220
05:41:02,270 --> 05:40:58,610
61. pad 61 is

5221
05:41:03,590 --> 05:41:02,280
talk is it taco lycos

5222
05:41:05,628 --> 05:41:03,600
we

5223
05:41:07,910 --> 05:41:05,638
I'm hearing yes and no at the same time

5224
05:41:13,640 --> 05:41:07,920
this is North Carolina State University

5225
05:41:18,470 --> 05:41:16,128
[Applause]

5226
05:41:21,470 --> 05:41:18,480
dog pack is that what you're saying oh

5227
05:41:23,990 --> 05:41:21,480
wolf pack dot not dog pack the name of

5228
05:41:28,730 --> 05:41:24,000
the rocket is I don't care what the

5229
05:41:30,230 --> 05:41:28,740
rocket name is just pick something okay

5230
05:41:32,750 --> 05:41:30,240
yeah

5231
05:41:37,128 --> 05:41:32,760
we're gonna call it Bob okay this rocket

5232
05:41:40,070 --> 05:41:37,138
weighs 41.38 pounds 6.17 inch diameter

5233
05:41:42,470 --> 05:41:40,080
length is 8.7 feet tall

5234
05:41:44,330 --> 05:41:42,480
this rocket is a unique paint job it is

5235
05:41:46,430 --> 05:41:44,340
painted like rainbow road if anyone's

5236
05:41:48,288 --> 05:41:46,440
ever played Mario Kart that's one of

5237
05:41:49,788 --> 05:41:48,298
those really hard levels that has

5238
05:41:51,230 --> 05:41:49,798
painted like the Rainbow Road they put a

5239
05:41:54,948 --> 05:41:51,240
lot of work into that

5240
05:41:58,490 --> 05:41:54,958
the experiment information says soas

5241
05:42:01,730 --> 05:41:58,500
surrounding Optics in camera system

5242
05:42:04,730 --> 05:42:01,740
and then on this project they had a lot

5243
05:42:06,650 --> 05:42:04,740
of they call it uh cupola which is a

5244
05:42:09,470 --> 05:42:06,660
play on the what the International Space

5245
05:42:11,628 --> 05:42:09,480
Station has or an Italian word for Dome

5246
05:42:13,430 --> 05:42:11,638
so that's where all the cameras are

5247
05:42:15,770 --> 05:42:13,440
going and they have a 3D printed tail

5248
05:42:17,270 --> 05:42:15,780
cone for aerodynamics

5249
05:42:20,030 --> 05:42:17,280
they also have some hidden

5250
05:42:22,970 --> 05:42:20,040
constellations painted in the rocket

5251
05:42:25,310 --> 05:42:22,980
in the past 10 days they had a subscale

5252
05:42:27,770 --> 05:42:25,320
or scale flight they said the motor

5253
05:42:29,628 --> 05:42:27,780
rapidly disassembled I don't know what

5254
05:42:31,430 --> 05:42:29,638
that means but they had to rebuild

5255
05:42:33,948 --> 05:42:31,440
sections of the rocket including part of

5256
05:42:36,590 --> 05:42:33,958
the payload the fins are removable and

5257
05:42:39,170 --> 05:42:36,600
they have brought spare ones with them

5258
05:42:41,570 --> 05:42:39,180
this this team also has a 10 person

5259
05:42:43,670 --> 05:42:41,580
leadership team and they are proud to

5260
05:42:44,690 --> 05:42:43,680
have eight of them being women which is

5261
05:42:47,570 --> 05:42:44,700
terrific

5262
05:42:50,270 --> 05:42:47,580
this team also does carry a tick tock

5263
05:42:53,030 --> 05:42:50,280
page and the name was voted on by the

5264
05:42:54,830 --> 05:42:53,040
team twice and won the majority vote so

5265
05:42:57,650 --> 05:42:54,840
they had to vote on it twice

5266
05:43:00,230 --> 05:42:57,660
also with this team itself in the

5267
05:43:01,270 --> 05:43:00,240
University of North Carolina State

5268
05:43:03,948 --> 05:43:01,280
University

5269
05:43:06,708 --> 05:43:03,958
they've had several team members that

5270
05:43:09,050 --> 05:43:06,718
have competed in this SLI and it now

5271
05:43:13,368 --> 05:43:09,060
worked for NASA to this day even a story

5272
05:43:15,530 --> 05:43:13,378
and feature piece last year on John I

5273
05:43:18,110 --> 05:43:15,540
Inez who actually is in the house today

5274
05:43:21,830 --> 05:43:18,120
so John is in the house take a bow John

5275
05:43:23,628 --> 05:43:21,840
yeah John's excited he's waving okay so

5276
05:43:26,448 --> 05:43:23,638
a lot of alumn now work for NASA this

5277
05:43:28,430 --> 05:43:26,458
thing is all coming together

5278
05:43:31,250 --> 05:43:28,440
okay why should people call the rocket

5279
05:43:33,110 --> 05:43:31,260
John instead of Bob okay on pad 61 we

5280
05:43:36,590 --> 05:43:33,120
have a clear sky we have a clear range

5281
05:43:45,470 --> 05:43:36,600
we're gonna launch in five four three

5282
05:43:51,470 --> 05:43:48,590
oh I meant it's an Aerotech l1520 Blue

5283
05:43:56,150 --> 05:43:51,480
Thunder should be on its way to 4 500

5284
05:44:04,910 --> 05:43:58,910
for an arc over

5285
05:44:04,920 --> 05:44:08,090
the main

5286
05:44:17,628 --> 05:44:11,570
maybe a thousand feet 600 feet 600 feet

5287
05:44:26,048 --> 05:44:19,910
still probably about 2 000 feet up right

5288
05:44:26,058 --> 05:44:36,410
approaching a thousand right now

5289
05:44:40,368 --> 05:44:38,208
okay we should see the parachute any

5290
05:44:42,288 --> 05:44:40,378
moment now

5291
05:44:45,948 --> 05:44:42,298
there it is

5292
05:44:52,730 --> 05:44:49,820
the Rainbow Road paint job came in handy

5293
05:44:54,970 --> 05:44:52,740
[Applause]

5294
05:45:00,770 --> 05:44:54,980
oh

5295
05:45:00,780 --> 05:45:08,030
see where that lands

5296
05:45:15,948 --> 05:45:10,010
yup it's in front of the trees so

5297
05:45:20,690 --> 05:45:18,288
okay I'm pad 62 we have Cedarville

5298
05:45:24,230 --> 05:45:20,700
student launch at a Cedarville

5299
05:45:26,770 --> 05:45:24,240
University in Cedarville Ohio

5300
05:45:30,830 --> 05:45:26,780
name of this rock is called Trailblazer

5301
05:45:33,288 --> 05:45:30,840
56.34 pounds six inch in diameter is 10

5302
05:45:35,868 --> 05:45:33,298
feet tall the name of this or this

5303
05:45:37,970 --> 05:45:35,878
rocket is painted like

5304
05:45:39,890 --> 05:45:37,980
like a cob of corn

5305
05:45:41,570 --> 05:45:39,900
so yeah it's going to kind of blend in

5306
05:45:42,890 --> 05:45:41,580
with the scenery here so there is a

5307
05:45:46,610 --> 05:45:42,900
rocket out there

5308
05:45:51,250 --> 05:45:46,620
the experiment information it has uh

5309
05:45:54,430 --> 05:45:51,260
Peep and ALS which stands for panoramic

5310
05:45:55,990 --> 05:45:54,440
extraterrestrial environment

5311
05:45:58,730 --> 05:45:56,000
uh

5312
05:46:01,850 --> 05:45:58,740
photographer rotates around body tube

5313
05:46:05,208 --> 05:46:01,860
after landing then the secondary airbag

5314
05:46:10,970 --> 05:46:05,218
Landing system deployed with CO2

5315
05:46:16,868 --> 05:46:13,850
and this is flying on Aerotech l2200

5316
05:46:19,910 --> 05:46:16,878
Mojave green should go about 4 400 feet

5317
05:46:21,830 --> 05:46:19,920
yep they said call it peep not Peeps

5318
05:46:23,990 --> 05:46:21,840
they don't know what it stands for oh

5319
05:46:26,930 --> 05:46:24,000
they didn't tell me earlier okay

5320
05:46:29,330 --> 05:46:26,940
and when this team also has fishing line

5321
05:46:32,510 --> 05:46:29,340
on the inside and it melts some fishing

5322
05:46:34,430 --> 05:46:32,520
line to move the payload around so we've

5323
05:46:35,448 --> 05:46:34,440
got all kinds of stuff from there their

5324
05:46:37,250 --> 05:46:35,458
parents are probably wondering where

5325
05:46:40,670 --> 05:46:37,260
their fishing line went

5326
05:46:43,128 --> 05:46:40,680
let's also for this team

5327
05:46:44,930 --> 05:46:43,138
a interesting fact on this team for them

5328
05:46:46,970 --> 05:46:44,940
to work and cut with fiberglass they had

5329
05:46:48,948 --> 05:46:46,980
to be in full coveralls and the team

5330
05:46:50,990 --> 05:46:48,958
liked to do that and had fun with it

5331
05:46:52,850 --> 05:46:51,000
they like they're doing a good job

5332
05:46:55,310 --> 05:46:52,860
following the school's safety guidelines

5333
05:46:58,610 --> 05:46:55,320
a total of 10 team members for this

5334
05:47:02,150 --> 05:46:58,620
project pad 62 the flying year of corn

5335
05:47:05,990 --> 05:47:02,160
the Trailblazer clear sky clear range we

5336
05:47:16,548 --> 05:47:06,000
will watch in five four three two one

5337
05:47:16,558 --> 05:47:21,948
supposed to be on its way to 4 400 feet

5338
05:47:21,958 --> 05:47:25,970
start an arc over

5339
05:47:45,590 --> 05:47:28,610
there's an event

5340
05:47:45,600 --> 05:47:51,670
foreign

5341
05:47:51,680 --> 05:47:56,410
feet right now

5342
05:48:02,690 --> 05:48:00,470
probably about a thousand feet

5343
05:48:07,190 --> 05:48:02,700
should be any moment now the main comes

5344
05:48:11,868 --> 05:48:08,690
all right looks like a good textbook

5345
05:48:36,948 --> 05:48:20,390
s

5346
05:48:39,530 --> 05:48:36,958
pretty cool they named it after their

5347
05:48:41,208 --> 05:48:39,540
Mentor Dave so Dave brunstein has been a

5348
05:48:43,548 --> 05:48:41,218
mentor for a number of years for this

5349
05:48:46,610 --> 05:48:43,558
team so pretty cool that they attributed

5350
05:48:49,930 --> 05:48:46,620
the rocket after him rocket weighs 53.6

5351
05:48:53,330 --> 05:48:49,940
pounds 6.17 inch diameter

5352
05:48:55,970 --> 05:48:53,340
10.875 feet tall this rocket does have

5353
05:48:58,730 --> 05:48:55,980
an apogee control system on board that

5354
05:49:01,670 --> 05:48:58,740
actively adjusts altitude using

5355
05:49:04,250 --> 05:49:01,680
extendable or extending fins so the

5356
05:49:07,730 --> 05:49:04,260
target altitude is 4 600 feet of

5357
05:49:10,010 --> 05:49:07,740
Aerotech L 2200 Mojave green on the

5358
05:49:12,490 --> 05:49:10,020
experiment information it has a 360

5359
05:49:15,070 --> 05:49:12,500
degree rotating Optical

5360
05:49:19,490 --> 05:49:15,080
Optical imager called

5361
05:49:22,368 --> 05:49:19,500
iroy lead screws system deploys camera

5362
05:49:24,650 --> 05:49:22,378
out of front and payload body tube gamer

5363
05:49:28,610 --> 05:49:24,660
can spin 360 degrees

5364
05:49:31,490 --> 05:49:28,620
about z-axis from rafco

5365
05:49:33,288 --> 05:49:31,500
lots of stuff going on there so without

5366
05:49:35,208 --> 05:49:33,298
that air braking system the rocket would

5367
05:49:39,288 --> 05:49:35,218
go to 5300 feet but it's going to have

5368
05:49:41,150 --> 05:49:39,298
it limit itself to 4 600 100 feet when

5369
05:49:43,070 --> 05:49:41,160
looking at the rocket the fins looked

5370
05:49:44,628 --> 05:49:43,080
really small but done all its upscale

5371
05:49:47,510 --> 05:49:44,638
flights they notice there's a little bit

5372
05:49:49,990 --> 05:49:47,520
overstable and they said they filed the

5373
05:49:52,670 --> 05:49:50,000
fins down hope they didn't take too long

5374
05:49:54,650 --> 05:49:52,680
and then they said this rocket has a

5375
05:49:56,270 --> 05:49:54,660
very strong selfie game so I don't know

5376
05:49:58,310 --> 05:49:56,280
what's going on with their selfie game

5377
05:50:06,590 --> 05:49:58,320
but that rocket possesses it

5378
05:50:12,048 --> 05:50:09,048
so this team does have a 50-person team

5379
05:50:13,788 --> 05:50:12,058
that they only have four seniors on this

5380
05:50:16,250 --> 05:50:13,798
team so there's a lot of underclassmen

5381
05:50:18,230 --> 05:50:16,260
on this team supporting it they also did

5382
05:50:21,770 --> 05:50:18,240
paint the rocket based off the football

5383
05:50:25,070 --> 05:50:21,780
designed uniform special to this year

5384
05:50:28,548 --> 05:50:25,080
this rocket has also landed in

5385
05:50:31,310 --> 05:50:28,558
it's landed on higher than normal

5386
05:50:32,930 --> 05:50:31,320
um platforms maybe or maybe not a tree a

5387
05:50:35,030 --> 05:50:32,940
couple of times and almost did it a

5388
05:50:38,510 --> 05:50:35,040
third time so they want to stay away

5389
05:50:40,788 --> 05:50:38,520
from trees I've been told pad 63 the uh

5390
05:50:42,530 --> 05:50:40,798
brunstein ready to go we have a clear

5391
05:50:46,548 --> 05:50:42,540
sky we have a clear range we're going to

5392
05:50:51,430 --> 05:50:46,558
launch this in five four three two one

5393
05:50:51,440 --> 05:50:54,670
thank you

5394
05:50:54,680 --> 05:51:06,230
so it should limit itself to 4 600 feet

5395
05:51:11,990 --> 05:51:08,390
starting to Arc over

5396
05:51:12,000 --> 05:51:27,530
your parachute is out

5397
05:51:36,948 --> 05:51:29,930
so the main on this one is set for 900

5398
05:51:36,958 --> 05:51:50,208
oh

5399
05:51:58,250 --> 05:51:52,128
parachutes I'm sorry the rock is still

5400
05:52:03,890 --> 05:52:01,310
that was the backup I think another all

5401
05:52:06,530 --> 05:52:03,900
kinds of charges on this rocket need the

5402
05:52:09,110 --> 05:52:06,540
parachutes open please there is a lot of

5403
05:52:10,788 --> 05:52:09,120
parachutes this one's gonna blink it a

5404
05:52:13,190 --> 05:52:10,798
little bit

5405
05:52:28,430 --> 05:52:13,200
falls down

5406
05:52:35,750 --> 05:52:31,610
okay so we're going to pad number 80.

5407
05:52:40,368 --> 05:52:35,760
this is the United States Naval Academy

5408
05:52:45,410 --> 05:52:42,350
name of this rocket is called Sunday

5409
05:52:49,730 --> 05:52:45,420
scaries with today's Saturday so the

5410
05:52:52,730 --> 05:52:49,740
rocket weighs 35.15 pounds six inch in

5411
05:52:55,548 --> 05:52:52,740
diameter nine feet seven inches tall

5412
05:52:57,650 --> 05:52:55,558
so on the vehicle notes many of the 13

5413
05:52:59,690 --> 05:52:57,660
team members are going into Naval

5414
05:53:02,150 --> 05:52:59,700
Aviation and hope to join the ranks of

5415
05:53:04,490 --> 05:53:02,160
the 54 astronauts who have graduated

5416
05:53:06,830 --> 05:53:04,500
from the Naval Academy more than any

5417
05:53:09,350 --> 05:53:06,840
other institution in the world

5418
05:53:10,670 --> 05:53:09,360
and with the experiment information the

5419
05:53:13,910 --> 05:53:10,680
electronics

5420
05:53:17,150 --> 05:53:13,920
has a gyroscopic gimbal they call it the

5421
05:53:20,090 --> 05:53:17,160
egg a fully 3D printed gimbal which sits

5422
05:53:22,128 --> 05:53:20,100
within a six inch ball carries Raspberry

5423
05:53:25,548 --> 05:53:22,138
Pi and radio this is supposed to be

5424
05:53:28,910 --> 05:53:25,558
flying on a Aerotech l850 White

5425
05:53:30,048 --> 05:53:28,920
Lightning should go about 5 000 or 5078

5426
05:53:31,970 --> 05:53:30,058
feet

5427
05:53:33,948 --> 05:53:31,980
the team did have to rebuild the field

5428
05:53:36,830 --> 05:53:33,958
completely in one week they identified

5429
05:53:38,448 --> 05:53:36,840
some errors to fix and improve the team

5430
05:53:41,690 --> 05:53:38,458
likes to work well under pressure they

5431
05:53:43,490 --> 05:53:41,700
like to say diamonds under pressure

5432
05:53:45,948 --> 05:53:43,500
I'm in

5433
05:53:48,110 --> 05:53:45,958
in preparation this team had a lot of

5434
05:53:49,610 --> 05:53:48,120
parachute events or issues I hope they

5435
05:53:52,788 --> 05:53:49,620
got all that worked out

5436
05:53:55,730 --> 05:53:52,798
the team also went with a elegant and

5437
05:53:58,070 --> 05:53:55,740
classy paint job like the team those

5438
05:53:59,990 --> 05:53:58,080
aren't my words the team also has a

5439
05:54:02,150 --> 05:54:00,000
ritual on launch day eating Dunkin

5440
05:54:05,030 --> 05:54:02,160
Donuts they'll pick up their donuts in

5441
05:54:07,368 --> 05:54:05,040
team is made up of all seniors

5442
05:54:09,590 --> 05:54:07,378
um the certainly oh this team is also

5443
05:54:11,690 --> 05:54:09,600
made up of all seniors and the servant

5444
05:54:14,750 --> 05:54:11,700
that serves of the academy and also does

5445
05:54:16,670 --> 05:54:14,760
leadership roles within the academy and

5446
05:54:18,048 --> 05:54:16,680
we also want to give a round of them

5447
05:54:19,610 --> 05:54:18,058
Round of Applause because they're going

5448
05:54:21,048 --> 05:54:19,620
to be serving in our U.S military so

5449
05:54:22,970 --> 05:54:21,058
let's give them a round of applause in

5450
05:54:25,310 --> 05:54:22,980
advance so thank you so much for for

5451
05:54:27,350 --> 05:54:25,320
what you're going to be doing

5452
05:54:30,350 --> 05:54:27,360
and then this team will also be going

5453
05:54:33,708 --> 05:54:30,360
into roles as officers either the Navy

5454
05:54:35,270 --> 05:54:33,718
or the Marines either air or ground and

5455
05:54:36,830 --> 05:54:35,280
then my buddy Lucas probably came and

5456
05:54:39,288 --> 05:54:36,840
talked to me a hundred different times

5457
05:54:42,830 --> 05:54:39,298
he did say he wanted to make a shout out

5458
05:54:45,288 --> 05:54:42,840
to wait a minute I believe this is Lucas

5459
05:54:48,110 --> 05:54:45,298
he said wanted to make a shout out to

5460
05:54:50,090 --> 05:54:48,120
Joey's brother who's a little brother

05:54:57,110 --> 05:54:54,298
accepted uh Lucas's little sister theya

5463
05:54:59,090 --> 05:54:57,120
just got accepted into UNC Chapel Hill

5464
05:55:00,350 --> 05:54:59,100
this week and it wants to give a shout

5465
05:55:03,230 --> 05:55:00,360
out to

5466
05:55:05,448 --> 05:55:03,240
his mom TJ so I hope I have that tied to

5467
05:55:08,448 --> 05:55:05,458
the right school so hope I got all that

5468
05:55:10,910 --> 05:55:08,458
right a lot of notes okay on pad number

5469
05:55:12,110 --> 05:55:10,920
80. we're gonna fly the Sunday scaries

5470
05:55:14,448 --> 05:55:12,120
rocket

5471
05:55:17,570 --> 05:55:14,458
we have a clear sky we have a clear

5472
05:55:31,010 --> 05:55:17,580
range on pad 80. we're gonna go in five

5473
05:55:31,020 --> 05:55:38,330
yep nice long run that l850

5474
05:55:42,770 --> 05:55:40,610
looks like it's starting to Arc over

5475
05:55:46,548 --> 05:55:42,780
there's a parachute there's it's back up

5476
05:55:48,288 --> 05:55:46,558
to the main drilled parachutes out

5477
05:55:49,788 --> 05:55:48,298
so earlier this morning I was just kind

5478
05:55:52,430 --> 05:55:49,798
of walking around and seeing what the

5479
05:55:54,410 --> 05:55:52,440
teams were doing this team decided to

5480
05:55:55,430 --> 05:55:54,420
just do like a push-up contest so I

5481
05:55:58,490 --> 05:55:55,440
think they were trying to do like 100

5482
05:56:05,110 --> 05:56:03,350
oh one team Oh wrong team I've been

5483
05:56:07,610 --> 05:56:05,120
[Music]

5484
05:56:13,788 --> 05:56:07,620
oh we're gonna have like a push-up uh

5485
05:56:17,510 --> 05:56:15,650
oh I guess NASA is involved in this

5486
05:56:19,910 --> 05:56:17,520
push-up contest now so the rocket still

5487
05:56:25,850 --> 05:56:19,920
is maybe about a thousand feet up should

5488
05:56:29,690 --> 05:56:28,368
okay we're approaching below a thousand

5489
05:56:35,090 --> 05:56:29,700
feet

5490
05:56:39,170 --> 05:56:37,310
the team is going for The Classy

5491
05:56:41,390 --> 05:56:39,180
clapping I guess is what they're going

5492
05:56:44,270 --> 05:56:41,400
with and sorry about the push-up contest

5493
05:56:53,350 --> 05:56:44,280
that's the other team

5494
05:56:59,270 --> 05:56:57,170
on pad 81 we have eclipse rocketry this

5495
05:57:01,490 --> 05:56:59,280
is University of California Davis out of

5496
05:57:03,470 --> 05:57:01,500
Davis California

5497
05:57:06,948 --> 05:57:03,480
name of this rocket is called heavy

5498
05:57:09,590 --> 05:57:06,958
which stands for horizontal ejector and

5499
05:57:12,288 --> 05:57:09,600
vertical eater I don't know if that's a

5500
05:57:15,470 --> 05:57:12,298
technical term but it says eater on

5501
05:57:18,470 --> 05:57:15,480
there 38 pound rocket six inch in

5502
05:57:20,810 --> 05:57:18,480
diameter eight feet four inches tall the

5503
05:57:23,930 --> 05:57:20,820
nose cone jettison's off under its own

5504
05:57:26,930 --> 05:57:23,940
parachute the GPS are featherweight

5505
05:57:28,788 --> 05:57:26,940
brand the experiment information is

5506
05:57:32,690 --> 05:57:28,798
called Scout which stands for spinning

5507
05:57:38,150 --> 05:57:36,170
can't read the writing of something you

5508
05:57:40,368 --> 05:57:38,160
and it looks like it says we are not

5509
05:57:42,830 --> 05:57:40,378
flying the payload of observing terrain

5510
05:57:44,628 --> 05:57:42,840
unknown that's what it stands for

5511
05:57:47,628 --> 05:57:44,638
they're not flying the payload but

5512
05:57:50,570 --> 05:57:47,638
before it was they they crossed out

5513
05:57:52,250 --> 05:57:50,580
destroyed and put damaged Scout was our

5514
05:57:54,048 --> 05:57:52,260
payload

5515
05:57:56,150 --> 05:57:54,058
so it just had a little bit of a damage

5516
05:57:59,628 --> 05:57:56,160
to it this rocket is flying on an

5517
05:58:01,970 --> 05:57:59,638
Aerotech l850 White Lightning should go

5518
05:58:05,208 --> 05:58:01,980
about 4 700 feet this team does have two

5519
05:58:07,310 --> 05:58:05,218
avionic bays has removable fans point of

5520
05:58:08,570 --> 05:58:07,320
view camera nosco does come down a

5521
05:58:10,788 --> 05:58:08,580
separate recovery

5522
05:58:13,128 --> 05:58:10,798
this team is made up about 20 members

5523
05:58:15,350 --> 05:58:13,138
they have they have definitely spent

5524
05:58:17,570 --> 05:58:15,360
over a thousand hours on this project

5525
05:58:20,090 --> 05:58:17,580
and they're very dedicated to it they

5526
05:58:21,708 --> 05:58:20,100
decorate the project in a Sharpie it

5527
05:58:24,590 --> 05:58:21,718
took them five hours to do it and ran

5528
05:58:26,030 --> 05:58:24,600
out of Sharpies also this rocket is the

5529
05:58:28,850 --> 05:58:26,040
only rocket that I'm aware of that is

5530
05:58:30,890 --> 05:58:28,860
waxed they wax the rocket

5531
05:58:32,330 --> 05:58:30,900
so for those that use rocket simulation

5532
05:58:34,490 --> 05:58:32,340
software you've probably heard of the

5533
05:58:37,070 --> 05:58:34,500
call out of finish and it says the

5534
05:58:39,590 --> 05:58:37,080
polished or smooth finish they took it a

5535
05:58:41,868 --> 05:58:39,600
step further and wanted to wax it one of

5536
05:58:45,650 --> 05:58:41,878
the team members referred to it as heavy

5537
05:58:48,830 --> 05:58:45,660
heavy slippery tuna technology that is

5538
05:58:51,590 --> 05:58:48,840
what this rocket has okay with the heavy

5539
05:58:54,230 --> 05:58:51,600
rocket on pad number 81.

5540
05:58:58,490 --> 05:58:54,240
clear sky clear range we will be

5541
05:59:01,430 --> 05:58:58,500
launching in five four three two one

5542
05:59:01,440 --> 05:59:08,990
there it goes

5543
05:59:09,000 --> 05:59:17,090
okay up parts looking good

5544
05:59:17,100 --> 05:59:21,230
sarking over

5545
05:59:25,788 --> 05:59:23,270
okay we don't have an event right now up

5546
05:59:30,048 --> 05:59:25,798
there it is a little late but there

5547
05:59:30,058 --> 05:59:45,010
it's okay

5548
06:00:00,948 --> 05:59:47,390
I mean

5549
06:00:04,910 --> 06:00:03,110
okay that rocket this will be uh it'll

5550
06:00:06,890 --> 06:00:04,920
be up there for a little bit so it's

5551
06:00:09,010 --> 06:00:06,900
like let's do a scan of the field take

5552
06:00:13,548 --> 06:00:09,020
some time

5553
06:00:15,948 --> 06:00:13,558
this is Vanderbilt Aerospace Design Lab

5554
06:00:18,350 --> 06:00:15,958
this is a Vanderbilt this is the school

5555
06:00:20,990 --> 06:00:18,360
out of Nashville Tennessee name of the

5556
06:00:23,628 --> 06:00:21,000
rocket is called New Ham has an unknown

5557
06:00:26,030 --> 06:00:23,638
weight six inch in diameter 10 feet tall

5558
06:00:29,150 --> 06:00:26,040
the experiment information is called

5559
06:00:32,510 --> 06:00:29,160
primary payload autonomous camera system

5560
06:00:35,810 --> 06:00:32,520
with a camera that lifts it swivels out

5561
06:00:38,208 --> 06:00:35,820
after recovering radio commands post

5562
06:00:43,190 --> 06:00:38,218
Landing secondary payload is an air

5563
06:00:49,788 --> 06:00:43,200
brake system targeting apogee called AAC

5564
06:00:52,628 --> 06:00:49,798
this one is flying on a CTI L 2375 it

5565
06:00:54,948 --> 06:00:52,638
should go about 4 500 feet

5566
06:00:58,430 --> 06:00:54,958
this rocket did have three different

5567
06:01:00,530 --> 06:00:58,440
sets of fins one stationary one variable

5568
06:01:02,868 --> 06:01:00,540
to hit a Target altitude and then one

5569
06:01:05,750 --> 06:01:02,878
that deploys upon Landing that's what

5570
06:01:07,850 --> 06:01:05,760
it's called the active apogee control

5571
06:01:10,610 --> 06:01:07,860
the name of the rocket is called New Ham

5572
06:01:15,530 --> 06:01:10,620
it's actually a tribute to ham which is

5573
06:01:21,590 --> 06:01:19,190
yes tribute to the monkey ham this is a

5574
06:01:24,650 --> 06:01:21,600
10 10 team members and this is actually

5575
06:01:26,150 --> 06:01:24,660
a part of a senior design project and

5576
06:01:28,610 --> 06:01:26,160
what I remember looking at that rocket

5577
06:01:30,470 --> 06:01:28,620
there's a lot of carbon fiber lots of

5578
06:01:32,510 --> 06:01:30,480
fins they got a lot of stuff in that

5579
06:01:35,448 --> 06:01:32,520
project so we'll see how it all comes

5580
06:01:35,458 --> 06:01:42,670
foreign

5581
06:01:53,208 --> 06:01:45,830
for the UC Davis rocket just to get

5582
06:01:58,430 --> 06:01:55,850
yeah it looks like UC Davis had a like

5583
06:02:11,470 --> 06:01:58,440
the nose cone part just landed and then

5584
06:02:18,530 --> 06:02:14,330
okay we'll we will proceed on with the

5585
06:02:21,230 --> 06:02:18,540
Vanderbilt rocket New Ham on pad 82.

5586
06:02:23,030 --> 06:02:21,240
we have a clear sky

5587
06:02:27,288 --> 06:02:23,040
we have a clear range we're going to

5588
06:02:32,690 --> 06:02:27,298
launch New Ham in five four three two

5589
06:02:39,310 --> 06:02:36,830
oh that body tube is barely hanging on

5590
06:02:42,170 --> 06:02:39,320
I could see that

5591
06:02:46,430 --> 06:02:42,180
so it's supposed to limit itself to 4

5592
06:02:46,440 --> 06:03:15,708
arcing over there's an event

5593
06:03:21,170 --> 06:03:17,628
okay we're still about

5594
06:03:26,030 --> 06:03:21,180
maybe 1500 feet

5595
06:03:31,190 --> 06:03:28,670
I mean it's set for 650 feet we're

5596
06:03:33,410 --> 06:03:31,200
approaching a thousand feet right now

5597
06:03:35,510 --> 06:03:33,420
should see the main parachute any moment

5598
06:03:38,680 --> 06:03:35,520
there it is

5599
06:03:45,590 --> 06:03:38,690
open up all right

5600
06:03:49,548 --> 06:03:47,810
[Music]

5601
06:04:08,390 --> 06:03:49,558
looks like that one's gonna take his

5602
06:04:08,400 --> 06:04:12,730
foreign

5603
06:04:17,990 --> 06:04:15,650
upon this rocket Landing it's supposed

5604
06:04:20,390 --> 06:04:18,000
to pop out one of the cameras and then

5605
06:04:22,190 --> 06:04:20,400
start to swivel around

5606
06:04:23,750 --> 06:04:22,200
doing a little maintenance out there at

5607
06:04:25,070 --> 06:04:23,760
the launch pad it's a little warm down

5608
06:04:30,830 --> 06:04:25,080
there so just trying to cool it off for

5609
06:05:04,930 --> 06:04:33,288
there's still one more before we uh

5610
06:05:04,940 --> 06:05:23,150
all right

5611
06:05:23,160 --> 06:06:08,448
thank you

5612
06:06:08,458 --> 06:06:16,610
good one

5613
06:06:16,620 --> 06:06:34,010
um

5614
06:06:51,010 --> 06:06:36,548
all right

5615
06:06:56,990 --> 06:06:54,470
okay we've got one more rocket on for

5616
06:06:58,730 --> 06:06:57,000
this volley the three in front we're

5617
06:07:00,288 --> 06:06:58,740
gonna actually integrate in the four

5618
06:07:02,628 --> 06:07:00,298
quality but we're gonna fly the one in

5619
06:07:05,150 --> 06:07:02,638
the far back pads furthest to the right

5620
06:07:07,970 --> 06:07:05,160
this is Darlington State University

5621
06:07:10,310 --> 06:07:07,980
rocket club out of tarlington state

5622
06:07:13,010 --> 06:07:10,320
university and Stevensville Texas pad

5623
06:07:15,650 --> 06:07:13,020
83. the name of this rocket is called

5624
06:07:23,030 --> 06:07:15,660
Turlington aeronautical and rocketry one

5625
06:07:26,470 --> 06:07:24,230
okay

5626
06:07:30,470 --> 06:07:26,480
four inch in diameter

5627
06:07:32,990 --> 06:07:30,480
uh 9.16 feet tall

5628
06:07:35,810 --> 06:07:33,000
the experiment information is called the

5629
06:07:39,288 --> 06:07:35,820
gimbal actuator system gas as a linear

5630
06:07:40,970 --> 06:07:39,298
actuator pushes gimbal camera arm out on

5631
06:07:43,490 --> 06:07:40,980
payload and if it works it'll be

5632
06:07:50,650 --> 06:07:43,500
straight gas

5633
06:07:54,410 --> 06:07:52,368
l910

5634
06:07:58,490 --> 06:07:54,420
this one's also time for the highest

5635
06:08:00,110 --> 06:07:58,500
attempted altitude at 5600 or 5690 feet

5636
06:08:01,910 --> 06:08:00,120
this is the first time the team has been

5637
06:08:04,250 --> 06:08:01,920
here in eight years

5638
06:08:06,048 --> 06:08:04,260
a week ago they had a failed and foul

5639
06:08:09,650 --> 06:08:06,058
payload which had to be completely

5640
06:08:11,390 --> 06:08:09,660
redone and they were able to build a new

5641
06:08:14,510 --> 06:08:11,400
one and rebuilt it

5642
06:08:16,548 --> 06:08:14,520
the rocket is is uh painted in all black

5643
06:08:18,230 --> 06:08:16,558
and then when I first saw it was not

5644
06:08:20,448 --> 06:08:18,240
have any accents so now they've got

5645
06:08:22,010 --> 06:08:20,458
purple added to it so they like the

5646
06:08:23,150 --> 06:08:22,020
subtle as more look but added some

5647
06:08:25,490 --> 06:08:23,160
purple

5648
06:08:27,288 --> 06:08:25,500
on this watch this rocket project and

5649
06:08:29,510 --> 06:08:27,298
team helped the university also

5650
06:08:31,310 --> 06:08:29,520
spearhead their aiaa membership

5651
06:08:36,948 --> 06:08:31,320
acceptance so pretty cool it's all

5652
06:08:41,448 --> 06:08:39,530
being told that there is a

5653
06:08:58,610 --> 06:08:41,458
pool as a planes were holding for a

5654
06:08:58,620 --> 06:09:06,830
um

5655
06:09:13,548 --> 06:09:09,890
okay we'll try it okay we're gonna try

5656
06:09:16,010 --> 06:09:13,558
pad 83 the tar1

5657
06:09:33,590 --> 06:09:16,020
Blue Sky quarter range we're gonna try

5658
06:09:38,330 --> 06:09:35,830
so that one is supposed to go

5659
06:09:41,448 --> 06:09:38,340
5600 feet I believe

5660
06:09:44,090 --> 06:09:41,458
we're tempting the highest altitude

5661
06:09:45,830 --> 06:09:44,100
there's the drove there's its back up to

5662
06:09:58,690 --> 06:09:45,840
the apogee

5663
06:09:58,700 --> 06:10:04,430
an hour

5664
06:10:16,610 --> 06:10:06,350
there's still probably a couple thousand

5665
06:10:16,620 --> 06:10:23,208
so there's still about 1500 feet

5666
06:10:29,570 --> 06:10:26,690
about a thousand feet just below it we

5667
06:10:32,860 --> 06:10:29,580
should see the parachute pretty soon

5668
06:10:35,280 --> 06:10:32,870
right about now there we go

5669
06:10:37,730 --> 06:10:35,290
[Applause]

5670
06:10:39,890 --> 06:10:37,740
[Music]

5671
06:10:43,310 --> 06:10:39,900
okay that

5672
06:10:44,990 --> 06:10:43,320
so that will conclude this is Lolly so

5673
06:10:47,448 --> 06:10:45,000
what we're going to do is the rockets on

5674
06:10:50,270 --> 06:10:47,458
10 11 12. we're gonna move it into

5675
06:10:51,770 --> 06:10:50,280
volley number four and for those rockets

5676
06:10:54,230 --> 06:10:51,780
that have not flown you're gonna need

5677
06:10:56,208 --> 06:10:54,240
the new volley volley four so you can go

5678
06:10:58,368 --> 06:10:56,218
out and start to set up rockets for

5679
06:11:02,330 --> 06:10:58,378
those pads make sure you go through

5680
06:11:04,548 --> 06:11:02,340
your check-in you're so check-in and go

5681
06:11:06,350 --> 06:11:04,558
through the pad managers and then for

5682
06:11:08,448 --> 06:11:06,360
recovering Rockets you got to be outside

5683
06:11:18,788 --> 06:11:08,458
of the range to go get your rocket so

5684
06:11:24,490 --> 06:11:21,410
hey everyone welcome back here to our

5685
06:11:29,868 --> 06:11:27,410
just launched a number of rockets here

5686
06:11:31,670 --> 06:11:29,878
at Nasa student launch uh NASA student

5687
06:11:33,470 --> 06:11:31,680
launch is one of eight Artemis student

5688
06:11:35,990 --> 06:11:33,480
challenges that the agency hosts to

5689
06:11:38,628 --> 06:11:36,000
engage the next generation of Engineers

5690
06:11:41,090 --> 06:11:38,638
scientists explorers and NASA space

5691
06:11:42,650 --> 06:11:41,100
flight team members this is truly one of

5692
06:11:44,270 --> 06:11:42,660
the incredible ones coming up next

5693
06:11:46,368 --> 06:11:44,280
weekend Lane we have the human

5694
06:11:48,590 --> 06:11:46,378
exploration Rover challenge also hosted

5695
06:11:50,448 --> 06:11:48,600
here at Marshall space flight center but

5696
06:11:52,670 --> 06:11:50,458
bringing everything back down here to

5697
06:11:55,368 --> 06:11:52,680
home we have one more volley of rockets

5698
06:11:57,350 --> 06:11:55,378
coming before we do we have a really

5699
06:11:59,510 --> 06:11:57,360

is Aaron Langhorne I am the Project Lead

5704
06:12:09,410 --> 06:12:06,840
for the 49er rocketry team and I'm a

5705
06:12:11,628 --> 06:12:09,420
mechanical engineering student okay so

5706
06:12:13,730 --> 06:12:11,638
as I understand it your school are the

5707
06:12:15,650 --> 06:12:13,740
reigning champions from last year and

5708
06:12:17,690 --> 06:12:15,660
the previous year in the previous year

5709
06:12:19,128 --> 06:12:17,700
yeah we are trying to bring it home for

5710
06:12:21,410 --> 06:12:19,138
a third time

5711
06:12:23,570 --> 06:12:21,420

see how it goes yeah absolutely so the

5714
06:12:29,510 --> 06:12:27,660
team this year no one was on a team last

5715
06:12:30,890 --> 06:12:29,520
year this is a fresh team this is

5716
06:12:33,170 --> 06:12:30,900
correct you have the rock tree team for

5717
06:12:34,730 --> 06:12:33,180
UNC Charlotte senior Capstone project so

5718
06:12:36,770 --> 06:12:34,740
every year we get a whole new fresh set

5719
06:12:38,690 --> 06:12:36,780
of people in to experience this project

5720
06:12:40,368 --> 06:12:38,700
for the first time yeah awesome so tell

5721
06:12:42,288 --> 06:12:40,378
me what challenges and difficulties have

5722
06:12:43,850 --> 06:12:42,298
you guys faced this year oh there's been

5723
06:12:46,788 --> 06:12:43,860
several um even from the beginning

5724
06:12:48,770 --> 06:12:46,798
working with a new team of

5725
06:12:50,448 --> 06:12:48,780
interdisciplinary engineering students

5726
06:12:52,430 --> 06:12:50,458
for the first time on such an intense

5727
06:12:54,288 --> 06:12:52,440
project getting a lot of that learning

5728
06:12:56,510 --> 06:12:54,298
curve out of the way as well the

5729
06:12:59,208 --> 06:12:56,520
documentation the learning curve that

5730
06:13:00,770 --> 06:12:59,218
comes with building a good story of ours

5731
06:13:02,628 --> 06:13:00,780
is our subscale launch one of our first

5732
06:13:04,610 --> 06:13:02,638
ones our parachute since deploy and we

5733
06:13:06,110 --> 06:13:04,620
ended up getting uh playing a game of

5734
06:13:08,030 --> 06:13:06,120
lawn darts with it for a little bit so

5735
06:13:10,010 --> 06:13:08,040
it was a good learning experience yeah

5736
06:13:12,230 --> 06:13:10,020
of course so what advice would you give

5737
06:13:13,788 --> 06:13:12,240
a person who's new to student launch or

5738
06:13:15,650 --> 06:13:13,798
a team that's new

5739
06:13:18,590 --> 06:13:15,660
the biggest advice I could give is try

5740
06:13:20,390 --> 06:13:18,600
to take up a personal project maybe not

5741
06:13:22,310 --> 06:13:20,400
exactly a kit rocket but design a

5742
06:13:25,128 --> 06:13:22,320
high-powered level one rocket get a lot

5743
06:13:26,628 --> 06:13:25,138
of that early knowledge rocket science

5744
06:13:28,070 --> 06:13:26,638
out of the way get some of that learning

5745
06:13:29,448 --> 06:13:28,080
curve so if you're interested in student

5746
06:13:32,270 --> 06:13:29,458
launch you can hit the ground running

5747
06:13:34,310 --> 06:13:32,280
more so and be more familiar with

5748
06:13:36,770 --> 06:13:34,320
everything going on awesome so earlier

5749
06:13:39,048 --> 06:13:36,780
you were telling me that actually unc's

5750
06:13:40,368 --> 06:13:39,058
rocketry team kind of attracted you to

5751
06:13:42,350 --> 06:13:40,378
that school can you tell me more about

5752
06:13:44,208 --> 06:13:42,360
that certainly I was a touring the

5753
06:13:45,530 --> 06:13:44,218
college I was looking around and I

5754
06:13:47,150 --> 06:13:45,540
happened to run into one of the alumni

5755
06:13:48,948 --> 06:13:47,160
from the rocketry team and they were

5756
06:13:51,350 --> 06:13:48,958
telling me how they compete Across the

5757
06:13:52,850 --> 06:13:51,360
Nation with you know 30 40 50 plus

5758
06:13:55,250 --> 06:13:52,860
colleges and they've always placed top

5759
06:13:58,970 --> 06:13:55,260
three and it turned out for last year

5760
06:14:01,368 --> 06:13:58,980
2021 2022 and 2020 2021 we ended up

5761
06:14:02,750 --> 06:14:01,378
coming first place and as I started

5762
06:14:04,010 --> 06:14:02,760
learning more about the project seeing

5763
06:14:05,628 --> 06:14:04,020
what they did they kind of experienced

5764
06:14:07,250 --> 06:14:05,638
the connections they made it just

5765
06:14:10,250 --> 06:14:07,260
attracted me immediately to join the

5766
06:14:11,690 --> 06:14:10,260

06:14:14,090 --> 06:14:11,700

are I'm Dominic I'm a junior I'm Cameron

5791
06:14:59,628 --> 06:14:57,600
I'm a senior so what were your what were

5792
06:15:01,190 --> 06:14:59,638
your roles with this beautiful rocket

5793
06:15:02,990 --> 06:15:01,200
that we see here beside us um I was a

5794
06:15:05,410 --> 06:15:03,000
payload officer I worked on this beauty

5795
06:15:07,430 --> 06:15:05,420
you see right here and I'm the team lead

5796
06:15:08,990 --> 06:15:07,440
excellent so let's talk about the

5797
06:15:10,490 --> 06:15:09,000
payload you have it here in your hands

5798
06:15:11,810 --> 06:15:10,500
let's take a look at that tell us what

5799
06:15:13,910 --> 06:15:11,820
your experiment is because you guys

5800
06:15:15,350 --> 06:15:13,920
didn't have to choose to do the college

5801
06:15:17,690 --> 06:15:15,360
um one you could come up with your own

5802
06:15:19,788 --> 06:15:17,700
Innovative creation uh what did you come

5803
06:15:22,250 --> 06:15:19,798
up with so we actually decided to pursue

5804
06:15:24,530 --> 06:15:22,260
the college requirements so you'll see a

5805
06:15:26,090 --> 06:15:24,540
camera on here that will extend outward

5806
06:15:28,010 --> 06:15:26,100
and take pictures of the surrounding

5807
06:15:30,410 --> 06:15:28,020
areas we really wanted to challenge

5808
06:15:33,048 --> 06:15:30,420
ourselves and to kind of prove to

5809
06:15:35,330 --> 06:15:33,058
ourselves that we're on that same level

5810
06:15:37,670 --> 06:15:35,340
and that we have the capabilities to do

5811
06:15:38,930 --> 06:15:37,680
amazing things so you flew earlier today

5812
06:15:41,990 --> 06:15:38,940
how did it go

5813
06:15:44,930 --> 06:15:42,000
uh yeah so we actually had uh the main

5814
06:15:45,890 --> 06:15:44,940
deployment at uh apogee so we had a long

5815
06:15:48,530 --> 06:15:45,900
walk

5816
06:15:50,030 --> 06:15:48,540
um but thankfully uh if anything goes

5817
06:15:51,170 --> 06:15:50,040
wrong with a rocket this is what you

5818
06:15:53,208 --> 06:15:51,180
want to have go wrong right anything

5819
06:15:55,070 --> 06:15:53,218
else would you know your rocket being in

5820
06:15:57,350 --> 06:15:55,080
pieces on the ground so you know I'll

5821
06:15:59,510 --> 06:15:57,360
take a long walk over that yeah yeah I

5822
06:16:02,510 --> 06:15:59,520
mean he certainly had a soft set a soft

5823
06:16:04,128 --> 06:16:02,520
touchdown there at the end of it so you

5824
06:16:05,510 --> 06:16:04,138
guys took on the high school Channel or

5825
06:16:08,150 --> 06:16:05,520
took on the college challenge rather

5826
06:16:09,770 --> 06:16:08,160
excuse me and I understand you guys have

5827
06:16:11,448 --> 06:16:09,780
been competing in student launch the

5828
06:16:13,128 --> 06:16:11,458
last few years but this is your first

5829
06:16:14,868 --> 06:16:13,138
time actually being able to come back to

5830
06:16:17,390 --> 06:16:14,878
Huntsville what has this experience been

5831
06:16:18,948 --> 06:16:17,400
like for you so it's actually a really

5832
06:16:20,628 --> 06:16:18,958
great experience

5833
06:16:22,070 --> 06:16:20,638
um especially to be a part of the

5834
06:16:23,990 --> 06:16:22,080
program for so many years and then never

5835
06:16:25,730 --> 06:16:24,000
really get to realize

5836
06:16:27,548 --> 06:16:25,740
um your fruits the fruits of your labor

5837
06:16:29,750 --> 06:16:27,558
the fruits of these last nine months

5838
06:16:31,128 --> 06:16:29,760
at the actual competition with all this

5839
06:16:32,810 --> 06:16:31,138
like electric environment with all these

5840
06:16:35,510 --> 06:16:32,820
different teams so it's really great to

5841
06:16:37,730 --> 06:16:35,520
be here excellent so I can't get my eyes

5842
06:16:39,470 --> 06:16:37,740
off of this awesome paint job tell us

5843
06:16:41,750 --> 06:16:39,480
about the paint job and I'm guessing

5844
06:16:43,310 --> 06:16:41,760
your Rocket's called pixel

5845
06:16:45,830 --> 06:16:43,320
um our rocket is actually called the Red

5846
06:16:48,590 --> 06:16:45,840
Rider the pixel refers to our payload

5847
06:16:51,170 --> 06:16:48,600
but our Mentor was actually able to get

5848
06:16:53,330 --> 06:16:51,180
us this wonderful paint job and I mean

5849
06:16:56,208 --> 06:16:53,340
it's something to behold every single

5850
06:16:58,850 --> 06:16:56,218
time that I see it yeah so it actually

5851
06:17:01,430 --> 06:16:58,860
matches up with a lot of our sponsors

5852
06:17:02,810 --> 06:17:01,440
um that we have here and

5853
06:17:04,368 --> 06:17:02,820
um overall we thought of something

5854
06:17:07,548 --> 06:17:04,378
unique to do

5855
06:17:08,868 --> 06:17:07,558
um and Red Rider actually comes from the

5856
06:17:09,548 --> 06:17:08,878
tricycles

5857
06:17:12,470 --> 06:17:09,558
um

5858
06:17:14,270 --> 06:17:12,480
yes that we all enjoyed as a little kid

5859
06:17:16,310 --> 06:17:14,280
um so yeah it's really really creative

5860
06:17:18,590 --> 06:17:16,320
stuff excellent so now I know you're

5861
06:17:20,030 --> 06:17:18,600

06:19:05,090 --> 06:19:02,040
launched today or had the launch go it

5913
06:19:07,970 --> 06:19:05,100
went good from what we can see we had

5914
06:19:09,708 --> 06:19:07,980
drogue and Maine and yeah it's awesome

5915
06:19:12,110 --> 06:19:09,718
good to hear the flight looked almost

5916
06:19:14,030 --> 06:19:12,120
perfect uh now we just hope that our

5917
06:19:15,350 --> 06:19:14,040
payload worked exactly as we wanted yeah

5918
06:19:17,448 --> 06:19:15,360
so tell me a little bit more about your

5919
06:19:20,750 --> 06:19:17,458
payload okay so we're doing the

5920
06:19:24,230 --> 06:19:20,760
university Challenge and um so we have

5921
06:19:26,990 --> 06:19:24,240
an rc3 that detects Landing then we have

5922
06:19:29,750 --> 06:19:27,000
an RTL SDR dongle that receives the aprs

5923
06:19:30,830 --> 06:19:29,760
commands and the pie decodes it and then

5924
06:19:34,070 --> 06:19:30,840
we have

5925
06:19:36,230 --> 06:19:34,080
um our sleds rotate to so that the

5926
06:19:38,868 --> 06:19:36,240
cameras around the z-axis and then the

5927
06:19:40,548 --> 06:19:38,878
other stepper motor rotates it um and

5928
06:19:42,288 --> 06:19:40,558
does the filters and stuff okay awesome

5929
06:19:45,110 --> 06:19:42,298
did you guys have any like a special

5930
06:19:48,350 --> 06:19:45,120
name for your payload or your rocket

5931
06:19:50,628 --> 06:19:48,360
we kind of created a name today because

5932
06:19:52,670 --> 06:19:50,638
we needed to but we call we called it

5933
06:19:55,670 --> 06:19:52,680
the sled spinner because the sled spin

5934
06:19:58,670 --> 06:19:55,680
around to get the camera to the z-axis

5935
06:20:00,948 --> 06:19:58,680
uh for the uh payload challenge yeah

5936
06:20:02,150 --> 06:20:00,958
awesome so what advice would you give to

5937
06:20:04,430 --> 06:20:02,160
a new team or a new student

5938
06:20:06,410 --> 06:20:04,440
participating

5939
06:20:08,930 --> 06:20:06,420
you're gonna go through a lot of

5940
06:20:11,090 --> 06:20:08,940
challenges every thing's gonna

5941
06:20:14,030 --> 06:20:11,100
Something's Gonna go wrong at some point

5942
06:20:16,670 --> 06:20:14,040
or another even if it does go wrong just

5943
06:20:18,650 --> 06:20:16,680
push through it just keep trying no

5944
06:20:20,570 --> 06:20:18,660
matter what just keep trying to solve

5945
06:20:23,750 --> 06:20:20,580
that problem even if it isn't working

5946
06:20:25,310 --> 06:20:23,760
for like a day or two just go on to the

5947
06:20:28,070 --> 06:20:25,320
third day fourth day fifth day however

5948
06:20:30,288 --> 06:20:28,080
long it takes just try and get it to

5949
06:20:32,868 --> 06:20:30,298
work yes absolutely a recurring theme

5950
06:20:35,868 --> 06:20:32,878
again is perseverance and rocketry right

5951
06:20:38,510 --> 06:20:35,878
so how far was your practice launching

5952
06:20:40,970 --> 06:20:38,520
area from your schools

5953
06:20:43,610 --> 06:20:40,980
I guess it depends it's

5954
06:20:46,070 --> 06:20:43,620
it's about three to four hours drive

5955
06:20:48,350 --> 06:20:46,080
from uh depending whether we were in the

5956
06:20:49,970 --> 06:20:48,360
San Diego area or the Orange County area

5957
06:20:52,610 --> 06:20:49,980
in California but it was about a three

5958
06:20:53,868 --> 06:20:52,620
or four hour drive okay awesome so do

5959
06:20:55,250 --> 06:20:53,878

plan of James Madison University you

5988
06:22:00,470 --> 06:21:58,740
probably recognize their rocket it was

5989
06:22:03,048 --> 06:22:00,480
Zeus number two it looked like the

5990
06:22:05,448 --> 06:22:03,058
number two pencil which I thought was so

5991
06:22:07,548 --> 06:22:05,458
cool to see out there so you guys

5992
06:22:09,048 --> 06:22:07,558
launched earlier tell us first tell us

5993
06:22:11,030 --> 06:22:09,058
your name and what your role in team was

5994
06:22:12,410 --> 06:22:11,040
hi my name is Matt Caulfield I'm the

5995
06:22:14,330 --> 06:22:12,420
project manager

5996
06:22:15,830 --> 06:22:14,340
um I help with the budget as well as

5997
06:22:17,510 --> 06:22:15,840
planning and scheduling

5998
06:22:19,730 --> 06:22:17,520
uh and I'm Tyler Emery and I'm the

5999
06:22:21,830 --> 06:22:19,740
recovery lead for the team so you guys

6000
06:22:24,650 --> 06:22:21,840
launched uh just a little bit ago how

6001
06:22:26,690 --> 06:22:24,660
did the flight go I went pretty well um

6002
06:22:28,070 --> 06:22:26,700
we had a nice recovery system everything

6003
06:22:29,150 --> 06:22:28,080
looked well

6004
06:22:32,208 --> 06:22:29,160
um as well as the payload system

6005
06:22:34,190 --> 06:22:32,218
operated as as intentional

6006
06:22:35,448 --> 06:22:34,200
yeah everything deployed uh absolutely

6007
06:22:38,270 --> 06:22:35,458
perfectly so we were really happy about

6008
06:22:39,590 --> 06:22:38,280
how it went excellent so now getting to

6009
06:22:41,448 --> 06:22:39,600
student launch and getting here to

6010
06:22:43,910 --> 06:22:41,458
Huntsville for the finale it's a lot of

6011
06:22:45,830 --> 06:22:43,920
work and some challenges along the way

6012
06:22:47,510 --> 06:22:45,840
we talked to off camera a little bit

6013
06:22:49,690 --> 06:22:47,520
about some of those challenges talk to

6014
06:22:52,788 --> 06:22:49,700
uh tell our viewers at home about those

6015
06:22:55,490 --> 06:22:52,798
yeah so uh essentially for our first

6016
06:22:57,350 --> 06:22:55,500
full-scale launch our rocket having to

6017
06:22:59,628 --> 06:22:57,360
land at the top of a very very tall tree

6018
06:23:01,548 --> 06:22:59,638
uh and that led to us having to cut down

6019
06:23:02,990 --> 06:23:01,558
that tree and then it landed into a

6020
06:23:04,610 --> 06:23:03,000
second tree and then we had to cut that

6021
06:23:06,230 --> 06:23:04,620
tree down as well

6022
06:23:08,170 --> 06:23:06,240
um and then it fell on the rocket and we

6023
06:23:10,310 --> 06:23:08,180
had to remanufacture a lot of our parts

6024
06:23:11,930 --> 06:23:10,320
so it was definitely a challenge to get

6025
06:23:14,208 --> 06:23:11,940
through that but we did it successfully

6026
06:23:16,010 --> 06:23:14,218
so how do you come back from something

6027
06:23:17,510 --> 06:23:16,020
like that because I can imagine it would

6028
06:23:19,970 --> 06:23:17,520
just be devastating

6029
06:23:22,128 --> 06:23:19,980
yeah I mean honestly it's just a lot of

6030
06:23:24,230 --> 06:23:22,138
hours in the lab I think a lot of

6031
06:23:25,850 --> 06:23:24,240
overtime and uh kind of just bringing

6032
06:23:27,530 --> 06:23:25,860
the team together and making sure that

6033
06:23:29,390 --> 06:23:27,540
we could get it done in time now you

6034
06:23:30,948 --> 06:23:29,400
talk about bringing the team together we

6035
06:23:34,070 --> 06:23:30,958
all know we've seen it throughout this

6036
06:23:35,330 --> 06:23:34,080
competition that camaraderie and bonding

6037
06:23:36,590 --> 06:23:35,340
is really important I understand you

6038
06:23:39,170 --> 06:23:36,600
guys have some really fun Traditions

6039
06:23:41,628 --> 06:23:39,180
right yeah no we love eating honey buns

6040
06:23:43,490 --> 06:23:41,638
every meeting especially coming to

6041
06:23:45,470 --> 06:23:43,500

6042
06:23:47,390 --> 06:23:45,480
energy up yeah

6043
06:23:49,030 --> 06:23:47,400
now that's my kind of tradition can I

6044
06:23:51,170 --> 06:23:49,040

um

6048
06:23:56,810 --> 06:23:54,718
I think honey buns really are the the

6049
06:23:59,208 --> 06:23:56,820
best tradition this team has I stick by

6050
06:24:00,890 --> 06:23:59,218

and green situation going on uh so we

6085
06:25:19,788 --> 06:25:18,000
went with the green just because we were

6086
06:25:21,890 --> 06:25:19,798
dispersing seeds so it kind of fit with

6087
06:25:24,410 --> 06:25:21,900
the color there and then we really like

6088
06:25:27,230 --> 06:25:24,420

good so tell me about your payload so we

6090
06:25:31,610 --> 06:25:29,340

6091
06:25:34,190 --> 06:25:31,620
starts in the air in the nose cone with

6092
06:25:36,590 --> 06:25:34,200
airflow and then it spins up a fan that

6093
06:25:39,548 --> 06:25:36,600
disperses the seeds at motor burnout

6094
06:25:42,230 --> 06:25:39,558
okay so as the rocket is launching air

6095
06:25:44,390 --> 06:25:42,240
basically Powers the payload yes that's

6096
06:25:46,190 --> 06:25:44,400
super cool so what challenges is you

6097
06:25:48,350 --> 06:25:46,200
guys have to overcome this year uh we

6098
06:25:50,510 --> 06:25:48,360
had some recovery issues

6099
06:25:52,010 --> 06:25:50,520
um our payload wasn't working and we

6100
06:25:55,190 --> 06:25:52,020
were able to fix it under 24 hours

6101
06:25:57,110 --> 06:25:55,200
before the launch so we have adapted

6102
06:25:58,610 --> 06:25:57,120
very well yes absolutely and making

6103
06:26:00,708 --> 06:25:58,620
those last minute changes can be super

6104
06:26:02,090 --> 06:26:00,718
hard so how many years have you guys

6105
06:26:04,190 --> 06:26:02,100
competed in this competition or your

6106
06:26:06,590 --> 06:26:04,200
school this is our second year here so

6107
06:26:08,690 --> 06:26:06,600
most of us are second years there's a

6108
06:26:10,190 --> 06:26:08,700
couple First Years okay so what advice

6109
06:26:11,390 --> 06:26:10,200
would you give a new team or a new

6110
06:26:14,270 --> 06:26:11,400
student

6111
06:26:16,010 --> 06:26:14,280
uh I would say we're together we're a

6112
06:26:17,448 --> 06:26:16,020
family and it's we've come a long way

6113
06:26:18,708 --> 06:26:17,458
and I think we've all gotten to know

6114
06:26:21,350 --> 06:26:18,718
each other really well

6115
06:26:22,850 --> 06:26:21,360
so how far is the the location where you

6116
06:26:24,470 --> 06:26:22,860
guys practice your launches how far is

6117
06:26:29,690 --> 06:26:24,480
that from your school

6118
06:26:32,930 --> 06:26:31,310
finding a lot of teams have to travel

6119
06:26:35,448 --> 06:26:32,940
really far so that adds another layer of

6120
06:26:36,470 --> 06:26:35,458
challenges of course right so do you

6121
06:26:37,910 --> 06:26:36,480
guys have anyone you want to shout out

6122
06:26:39,410 --> 06:26:37,920
or think today

6123
06:26:41,510 --> 06:26:39,420
um we would like to shout out the walk

6124
06:26:45,350 --> 06:26:41,520
in the park Foundation kenwright Sellers

6125
06:26:47,208 --> 06:26:45,360
and Willow Springs Auto and Paint okay

6126
06:26:48,770 --> 06:26:47,218
awesome thank you guys so much for

6127
06:26:50,930 --> 06:26:48,780
talking to me today with me today

6128
06:26:52,430 --> 06:26:50,940
congratulations on a great launch and

6129
06:26:54,590 --> 06:26:52,440
have a great rest of your day thank you

6130
06:26:56,750 --> 06:26:54,600
thank you

6131
06:26:59,570 --> 06:26:56,760
okay well who do we have next joining us

6132
06:27:00,830 --> 06:26:59,580
yeah Elaine I love once again I love

6133
06:27:02,570 --> 06:27:00,840
seeing these high school teams that

6134
06:27:05,208 --> 06:27:02,580
payload I mean the rocket looks like

6135
06:27:07,310 --> 06:27:05,218
that payload the seed dispersion that's

6136
06:27:08,990 --> 06:27:07,320
just cool maybe uh maybe we should go

6137
06:27:10,548 --> 06:27:09,000
plant some seeds using their Rockets oh

6138
06:27:12,590 --> 06:27:10,558
yeah that sounds great and I want to

6139
06:27:13,850 --> 06:27:12,600
bring up you know the the college teams

6140
06:27:15,048 --> 06:27:13,860
have certain requirements they have to

6141
06:27:16,670 --> 06:27:15,058
meet for their payloads and high

6142
06:27:18,110 --> 06:27:16,680
schoolers have kind of more freedom they

6143
06:27:20,810 --> 06:27:18,120
can choose whatever science or

6144
06:27:22,128 --> 06:27:20,820
technology technology experiment they

6145
06:27:23,570 --> 06:27:22,138
want to do so it's really cool to hear

6146
06:27:25,070 --> 06:27:23,580
that that's the route they went it's

6147
06:27:27,110 --> 06:27:25,080
always interesting to see what the Young

6148
06:27:29,208 --> 06:27:27,120
Minds come up with it makes me feel a

6149
06:27:30,890 --> 06:27:29,218
lot better about the future of our space

6150
06:27:32,570 --> 06:27:30,900
flight industry knowing we have

6151
06:27:35,690 --> 06:27:32,580
Brilliant Minds like that absolutely

6152
06:27:37,548 --> 06:27:35,700
right yes absolutely Innovative and

6153
06:27:40,430 --> 06:27:37,558
awesome looking stuff we have Oregon

6154
06:27:43,850 --> 06:27:40,440
State University y'all come on in

6155
06:27:45,350 --> 06:27:43,860
this beautiful rocket beside us tell us

6156
06:27:47,810 --> 06:27:45,360
your name and what your role on the team

6157
06:27:50,628 --> 06:27:47,820
is uh so my name is Jacob Justin Colton

6158
06:27:53,330 --> 06:27:50,638
everyone calls me JJ uh and I am the

6159
06:27:54,770 --> 06:27:53,340
team captain of the Oregon State usli so

6160
06:27:57,350 --> 06:27:54,780
you guys flew earlier how did the flight

6161
06:27:59,510 --> 06:27:57,360
go uh the flight actually went amazingly

6162
06:28:02,390 --> 06:27:59,520
uh our rocket is called Overkill because

6163
06:28:04,128 --> 06:28:02,400
we over designed it all so thankfully uh

6164
06:28:06,650 --> 06:28:04,138
it lived up to its name now speaking of

6165
06:28:09,288 --> 06:28:06,660
design it's a beautiful paint job tell

6166
06:28:10,610 --> 06:28:09,298
us about what went into that so it also

6167
06:28:12,590 --> 06:28:10,620
had the benefit of unintentionally

6168
06:28:14,330 --> 06:28:12,600
matching our shirts but we did a stem

6169
06:28:16,010 --> 06:28:14,340
engagement event back in Oregon at the

6170
06:28:18,650 --> 06:28:16,020
Oregon Museum of Science and Industry

6171
06:28:20,750 --> 06:28:18,660
and we asked for a bunch of kids to come

6172
06:28:22,910 --> 06:28:20,760
and design our rocket and we voted on

6173
06:28:25,548 --> 06:28:22,920
the winner we had about 250 to 280

6174
06:28:27,830 --> 06:28:25,558
submissions and we voted on the winner

6175
06:28:30,890 --> 06:28:27,840
and the winner was Miss Alice so thank

6176
06:28:32,810 --> 06:28:30,900
you so hi in this Alice uh beautiful

6177
06:28:34,430 --> 06:28:32,820
rocket that you design and for everybody

6178
06:28:36,288 --> 06:28:34,440
back home stem engagement is one of the

6179
06:28:38,030 --> 06:28:36,298
key requirements Ford NASA student

6180
06:28:40,730 --> 06:28:38,040
launch so great that you guys were able

6181
06:28:41,810 --> 06:28:40,740
to to do that now understand that you

6182
06:28:44,868 --> 06:28:41,820
guys are starting we talk about

6183
06:28:46,250 --> 06:28:44,878
Traditions NASA we are deep in with our

6184
06:28:48,288 --> 06:28:46,260
Traditions I understand you guys have a

6185
06:28:50,990 --> 06:28:48,298
new one you're starting this year yeah

6186
06:28:53,150 --> 06:28:51,000
so we actually uh we kind of wanted to

6187
06:28:54,770 --> 06:28:53,160
stand out more and it became uh kind of

6188
06:28:56,090 --> 06:28:54,780
when I would get to meetings I would

6189
06:28:58,670 --> 06:28:56,100
always wear a Hawaiian shirt and be like

6190
06:29:00,170 --> 06:28:58,680
the dad of the team and so we made a

6191
06:29:01,548 --> 06:29:00,180
joke that we should wear Hawaiian shirts

6192
06:29:02,868 --> 06:29:01,558
for the launch and you know what we

6193
06:29:04,730 --> 06:29:02,878
ended up doing it if you noticed even

6194
06:29:08,030 --> 06:29:04,740
has our logo on it and our patch on the

6195
06:29:09,770 --> 06:29:08,040
uh the chest here oh that's so cool

6196
06:29:11,330 --> 06:29:09,780
um well so tell us about the payload

6197
06:29:13,368 --> 06:29:11,340
Challenge and how you guys undertook

6198
06:29:15,470 --> 06:29:13,378
that that really challenging

6199
06:29:17,810 --> 06:29:15,480
um obstacle that we put in front of you

6200
06:29:19,910 --> 06:29:17,820
yeah so the challenge certainly had a

6201
06:29:21,948 --> 06:29:19,920
lot of avenues to go down we ended up

6202
06:29:23,810 --> 06:29:21,958
trying to go down the one that allowed

6203
06:29:25,368 --> 06:29:23,820
us to use gravity more to our side than

6204
06:29:27,530 --> 06:29:25,378
making more complicated Mechanical

6205
06:29:29,330 --> 06:29:27,540
Devices so our payload is actually

6206
06:29:31,490 --> 06:29:29,340
called the goop or the gravity operated

6207
06:29:33,110 --> 06:29:31,500
oblong payload and it's housed in the

6208
06:29:35,390 --> 06:29:33,120
nose cone there so

6209
06:29:37,070 --> 06:29:35,400
if you've ever seen a Weeble wobble uh

6210
06:29:38,510 --> 06:29:37,080
you know you push it over and it comes

6211
06:29:39,890 --> 06:29:38,520
back up that's essentially what our

6212
06:29:42,048 --> 06:29:39,900
design is and it just has a camera that

6213
06:29:43,788 --> 06:29:42,058
Springs right out oh that's awesome so

6214
06:29:46,250 --> 06:29:43,798
you're using gravity using the basic

6215
06:29:48,288 --> 06:29:46,260
principles of physics uh to make your

6216
06:29:50,150 --> 06:29:48,298
payload even easier anybody back home

6217
06:29:52,548 --> 06:29:50,160
any sponsors any professors anybody you

6218
06:29:54,470 --> 06:29:52,558
want to say hi to uh I would like to say

6219
06:29:56,030 --> 06:29:54,480
hi to my family who drove the rocket

6220
06:29:58,128 --> 06:29:56,040
down here we wouldn't have done it

6221
06:30:00,708 --> 06:29:58,138
without them it was 40 hour drive so

6222
06:30:02,930 --> 06:30:00,718
thank you Mom and Dad I love you and

6223
06:30:04,970 --> 06:30:02,940
thank you to the Corvallis community and

6224
06:30:06,708 --> 06:30:04,980
Estacada community and all of Oregon in

6225
06:30:08,090 --> 06:30:06,718
general we didn't really get to bring

6226
06:30:09,230 --> 06:30:08,100
all of Oregon with us but we brought the

6227
06:30:11,690 --> 06:30:09,240
community in the rocket and with our

6228
06:30:14,150 --> 06:30:11,700
spirit man that just gave me goosebumps

6229
06:30:16,128 --> 06:30:14,160
that's so cool so hello to everyone in

6230
06:30:18,890 --> 06:30:16,138
Oregon out there in Pacific Northwest

6231
06:30:20,750 --> 06:30:18,900
taking care of our Rockets our future of

6232
06:30:23,750 --> 06:30:20,760
our space flight industry wearing good

6233
06:30:25,368 --> 06:30:23,760
hands with teams like Oregon State uh so

6234
06:30:26,570 --> 06:30:25,378
congratulations and we look forward to

6235
06:30:28,490 --> 06:30:26,580
seeing how the rest of the competition

6236
06:30:31,788 --> 06:30:28,500
goes for you all thank you so much that

6237
06:30:34,548 --> 06:30:31,798
is Oregon State the Beavers coming down

6238
06:30:36,230 --> 06:30:34,558
here a 40-hour drive

6239
06:30:37,788 --> 06:30:36,240
so Lane

6240
06:30:38,750 --> 06:30:37,798
we have another team that we get to talk

6241
06:30:42,288 --> 06:30:38,760
to

6242
06:30:46,788 --> 06:30:44,990
so here they come they had the corn

6243
06:30:48,288 --> 06:30:46,798
rocket which we've been promoting on

6244
06:30:50,750 --> 06:30:48,298
social media so make sure to follow us

6245
06:30:52,070 --> 06:30:50,760
there as well but hi please introduce

6246
06:30:55,128 --> 06:30:52,080
yourself and tell us your year in school

6247
06:30:56,628 --> 06:30:55,138
my name is Annie Roark I'm a senior

6248
06:30:59,208 --> 06:30:56,638
mechanical engineering major from

6249
06:31:01,490 --> 06:30:59,218
Cedarville University awesome so how'd

6250
06:31:04,010 --> 06:31:01,500
the launch go today overall we think it

6251
06:31:06,590 --> 06:31:04,020
went pretty well we had good asson both

6252
06:31:08,810 --> 06:31:06,600
our recovery events were successful we

6253
06:31:10,670 --> 06:31:08,820
had a couple issues on the landing just

6254
06:31:12,830 --> 06:31:10,680
our parachute's so big we're banging

6255
06:31:15,470 --> 06:31:12,840
around but really happy with our

6256
06:31:17,090 --> 06:31:15,480
recovery so yeah that's great so what

6257
06:31:19,548 --> 06:31:17,100
are you most proud of about your rocket

6258
06:31:22,310 --> 06:31:19,558
I think you know we're we're a small

6259
06:31:23,990 --> 06:31:22,320
Christian School and this is our senior

6260
06:31:25,850 --> 06:31:24,000
design project so none of us have ever

6261
06:31:27,788 --> 06:31:25,860
competed in this before none of us

6262
06:31:30,288 --> 06:31:27,798
really have any experience with rocketry

6263
06:31:31,910 --> 06:31:30,298
we kind of came into the competition

6264
06:31:33,830 --> 06:31:31,920
with the mindset you know we're gonna

6265
06:31:35,810 --> 06:31:33,840
glorify God with all our work and just

6266
06:31:37,548 --> 06:31:35,820
do our best and I think we were able to

6267
06:31:38,628 --> 06:31:37,558
make something that we are really proud

6268
06:31:40,788 --> 06:31:38,638
of

6269
06:31:42,948 --> 06:31:40,798
um ultimately really successful we're

6270
06:31:44,330 --> 06:31:42,958
happy with our payload and just the way

6271
06:31:46,490 --> 06:31:44,340
that we were able to come together as a

6272
06:31:48,830 --> 06:31:46,500
team yeah absolutely so what advice

6273
06:31:51,530 --> 06:31:48,840
would you give to another team yeah I'd

6274
06:31:53,990 --> 06:31:51,540
say uh get connected with local rocketry

6275
06:31:55,910 --> 06:31:54,000
clubs ours is the rights of rocketeers

6276
06:31:59,030 --> 06:31:55,920
and they were awesome our Mentor Dave

6277
06:32:01,430 --> 06:31:59,040
taught us so much right off the bat we

6278
06:32:03,170 --> 06:32:01,440
put in a lot of long hours but it was so

6279
06:32:05,510 --> 06:32:03,180
worth it just learning basics of

6280
06:32:06,890 --> 06:32:05,520
rocketry and then you can really apply

6281
06:32:09,288 --> 06:32:06,900
some of your technical engineering

6282
06:32:11,330 --> 06:32:09,298
skills to make things really good yeah

6283
06:32:14,510 --> 06:32:11,340
so tell me about the decision to paint

6284
06:32:16,850 --> 06:32:14,520
it like corn yeah so Cedarville we're

6285
06:32:20,090 --> 06:32:16,860
from Cedarville Ohio that is Southwest

6286
06:32:23,390 --> 06:32:20,100
Ohio and we're in just a small town

6287
06:32:25,070 --> 06:32:23,400
surrounded by cornfields so we initially

6288
06:32:27,110 --> 06:32:25,080
were thinking we kind of wanted to paint

6289
06:32:29,810 --> 06:32:27,120
it pink but the boys didn't really like

6290
06:32:31,310 --> 06:32:29,820
that so we settled on corn well it kind

6291
06:32:33,170 --> 06:32:31,320
of fits in with the scenery around here

6292
06:32:35,090 --> 06:32:33,180
being in a farm environment so that was

6293
06:32:36,590 --> 06:32:35,100
kind of perfect is there anyone you want

6294
06:32:39,048 --> 06:32:36,600
to shout out or think today yeah

6295
06:32:41,390 --> 06:32:39,058
absolutely both are our professor

6296
06:32:44,208 --> 06:32:41,400
advisors Dr Ward here and and Dr

6297
06:32:46,368 --> 06:32:44,218
toonstra and just been so instrumental

6298
06:32:48,170 --> 06:32:46,378

6299
06:32:51,170 --> 06:32:48,180
professors back at Cedarville we just

6300
06:32:52,788 --> 06:32:51,180

have our 4-H team oh perfect so y'all

6312
06:33:17,810 --> 06:33:15,958
come on in

6313
06:33:19,310 --> 06:33:17,820
all right tell me your name and what

6314
06:33:22,070 --> 06:33:19,320
your role is here on the team my name is

6315
06:33:24,410 --> 06:33:22,080
Sean I'm uh the team captain uh we're

6316
06:33:26,868 --> 06:33:24,420
with Morris County 4-H we're really

6317
06:33:28,368 --> 06:33:26,878
happy to be here so now I'm gonna ask a

6318
06:33:29,930 --> 06:33:28,378
silly question where is Morris County

6319
06:33:31,010 --> 06:33:29,940
what state are you off from northern

6320
06:33:33,708 --> 06:33:31,020
Jersey

6321
06:33:35,628 --> 06:33:33,718
it's a far away from Alabama excellent

6322
06:33:37,310 --> 06:33:35,638
so what has this experience been like I

6323
06:33:38,990 --> 06:33:37,320
know being a 4-H club you're not a

6324
06:33:41,390 --> 06:33:39,000
typical high school team understand

6325
06:33:43,788 --> 06:33:41,400
multiple schools that you guys are go to

6326
06:33:45,410 --> 06:33:43,798
we all go to different schools uh even

6327
06:33:47,208 --> 06:33:45,420
different counties all across the state

6328
06:33:48,410 --> 06:33:47,218
some of us are several hours from each

6329
06:33:51,110 --> 06:33:48,420
other so

6330
06:33:53,390 --> 06:33:51,120
of a logistical nightmare but

6331
06:33:55,010 --> 06:33:53,400
we made it happen so what has this

6332
06:33:56,868 --> 06:33:55,020
experience been like for you and what's

6333
06:33:58,490 --> 06:33:56,878
been your favorite part I it's been

6334
06:34:00,170 --> 06:33:58,500
extremely difficult you know we're the

6335
06:34:02,150 --> 06:34:00,180
one of the smallest teams with just five

6336
06:34:04,368 --> 06:34:02,160
people that you see here

6337
06:34:05,990 --> 06:34:04,378
um getting all that worked in with

6338
06:34:08,150 --> 06:34:06,000
paperwork and all that it's very

6339
06:34:10,610 --> 06:34:08,160
difficult but uh it's been very fun

6340
06:34:12,530 --> 06:34:10,620
extremely rewarding uh we're very

6341
06:34:14,990 --> 06:34:12,540
grateful to all the student launch Team

6342
06:34:16,010 --> 06:34:15,000

6343
06:34:17,690 --> 06:34:16,020

here to join us Lane we talked to Army

6370
06:35:15,410 --> 06:35:13,980
earlier we got Naval Academy or we

6371
06:35:21,490 --> 06:35:15,420
talked to University United States

6372
06:35:26,030 --> 06:35:23,750
yeah so please introduce yourself and

6373
06:35:28,490 --> 06:35:26,040
tell us what you're studying in school

6374
06:35:30,650 --> 06:35:28,500
my name is uh Michigan First Class Lucas

6375
06:35:32,750 --> 06:35:30,660
Bly I'm studying aerospace engineering

6376
06:35:34,310 --> 06:35:32,760
at the U.S Naval Academy all right thank

6377
06:35:35,930 --> 06:35:34,320
you so what challenges and difficulties

6378
06:35:38,510 --> 06:35:35,940
did you guys face this year

6379
06:35:42,830 --> 06:35:38,520
yes we uh successfully overcame a number

6380
06:35:44,750 --> 06:35:42,840
of obstacles uh for example we overcame

6381
06:35:46,850 --> 06:35:44,760
a key challenge with our payload I'll

6382
06:35:49,310 --> 06:35:46,860
let my colleague midshipman first class

6383
06:35:51,530 --> 06:35:49,320
will megenson talk about the payload

6384
06:35:54,890 --> 06:35:51,540
okay yeah the pale was a major struggle

6385
06:35:56,570 --> 06:35:54,900
for us getting a package that would both

6386
06:35:59,270 --> 06:35:56,580
survive the landing and perform as

6387
06:36:02,330 --> 06:35:59,280
desired Ah that's a struggle it really

6388
06:36:04,490 --> 06:36:02,340
is we biggest problems came with airface

6389
06:36:06,830 --> 06:36:04,500
with the recovery system we had a lot of

6390
06:36:08,690 --> 06:36:06,840
parachute problems that required some uh

6391
06:36:11,570 --> 06:36:08,700
some harder Landings than anticipated

6392
06:36:13,788 --> 06:36:11,580
and that involves some damage to payload

6393
06:36:16,070 --> 06:36:13,798
so kind of working through that actually

6394
06:36:18,590 --> 06:36:16,080
I think it was two weeks ago on Sunday

6395
06:36:21,470 --> 06:36:18,600
we destroyed our payload on a no

6396
06:36:23,270 --> 06:36:21,480
parachute Landing so it was the week

6397
06:36:25,610 --> 06:36:23,280
before we came here was a rush to get

6398
06:36:27,830 --> 06:36:25,620
that rebuilt but just had a rally really

6399
06:36:29,750 --> 06:36:27,840
quickly huh yes ma'am so how many times

6400
06:36:33,410 --> 06:36:29,760
has the Naval Academy competed do you

6401
06:36:35,030 --> 06:36:33,420
know that uh I'm not sure but um it was

6402
06:36:37,128 --> 06:36:35,040
actually I want to give a shout out to

6403
06:36:38,690 --> 06:36:37,138
uh Lieutenant Friddle

6404
06:36:41,208 --> 06:36:38,700
um he's an officer at the Naval Academy

6405
06:36:44,270 --> 06:36:41,218
right now and when he was a first class

6406
06:36:46,850 --> 06:36:44,280
mid he uh revived the program so a big

6407
06:36:48,590 --> 06:36:46,860
shout out to Lieutenant His Four Horses

6408
06:36:51,048 --> 06:36:48,600
fertile that's his call sign awesome

6409
06:36:53,030 --> 06:36:51,058
just a quick thing if I may as a

6410
06:36:55,030 --> 06:36:53,040
midshipman will Magnuson was saying

6411
06:36:57,590 --> 06:36:55,040
leader of the payload team

6412
06:36:59,628 --> 06:36:57,600
just to give you an example it's a great

6413
06:37:02,090 --> 06:36:59,638
case in point with a payload how he

6414
06:37:03,948 --> 06:37:02,100
overcame that challenge we have a saying

6415
06:37:06,288 --> 06:37:03,958
on the team Diamonds Are Made Under

6416
06:37:08,090 --> 06:37:06,298
Pressure so just case some point right

6417
06:37:10,730 --> 06:37:08,100

boost looked great all the way up to the

6420
06:37:18,708 --> 06:37:15,900
sky so I come down here two shoots as we

6421
06:37:19,850 --> 06:37:18,718
expected so all good news there I

6422
06:37:22,070 --> 06:37:19,860
haven't got to fully go through the

6423
06:37:24,230 --> 06:37:22,080
payload results and the actual Landing

6424
06:37:25,310 --> 06:37:24,240
yet with the rest of the team and we're

6425
06:37:27,708 --> 06:37:25,320
excited to do that and see how

6426
06:37:29,208 --> 06:37:27,718
everything turned out yeah great so what

6427
06:37:31,610 --> 06:37:29,218
advice would you give other teams or

6428
06:37:34,490 --> 06:37:31,620

06:38:19,610 --> 06:38:17,280
without saying that of course totally

6449
06:38:22,310 --> 06:38:21,048
a little academy account yeah now we

6450
06:38:24,288 --> 06:38:22,320
have one of our high school teams here

6451
06:38:27,288 --> 06:38:24,298
East Aurora High School from New York

6452
06:38:29,270 --> 06:38:27,298
come on in how's everybody doing today

6453
06:38:31,368 --> 06:38:29,280
good pretty pumped about that launch

6454
06:38:33,890 --> 06:38:31,378
that launch was amazing yeah so tell us

6455
06:38:36,410 --> 06:38:33,900
about that launch I it went I can tell

6456
06:38:38,628 --> 06:38:36,420
you're excited went well oh yeah it went

6457
06:38:40,610 --> 06:38:38,638
perfect Flawless there was no issues at

6458
06:38:42,830 --> 06:38:40,620
all that doesn't often happen in

6459
06:38:45,110 --> 06:38:42,840
rocketry uh tell us about what this

6460
06:38:46,970 --> 06:38:45,120
process has been like and and challenges

6461
06:38:49,490 --> 06:38:46,980
that that brought you here this process

6462
06:38:51,110 --> 06:38:49,500
has been a lot of work trust me we've

6463
06:38:52,490 --> 06:38:51,120
gone through five full-scale flights

6464
06:38:54,948 --> 06:38:52,500
that this was actually our fifth right

6465
06:38:56,570 --> 06:38:54,958
here but our second full-scale flight we

6466
06:38:59,030 --> 06:38:56,580
actually crashed into a tree at 285

6467
06:39:00,948 --> 06:38:59,040
miles an hour because the whole recovery

6468
06:39:02,570 --> 06:39:00,958
system just didn't act properly and then

6469
06:39:03,830 --> 06:39:02,580
the third flight uh we only had two

6470
06:39:06,410 --> 06:39:03,840
charges go off and that was just the

6471
06:39:08,090 --> 06:39:06,420
main parachute so they didn't really

6472
06:39:10,190 --> 06:39:08,100
like that so our fourth flight was

6473
06:39:12,110 --> 06:39:10,200
actually on Saturday one week ago from

6474
06:39:15,708 --> 06:39:12,120
today and then we got approved to fly

6475
06:39:17,868 --> 06:39:15,718
Monday so it's been a hectic process so

6476
06:39:19,670 --> 06:39:17,878
determination and resiliency really kind

6477
06:39:22,128 --> 06:39:19,680
of seems to be the the motto of the team

6478
06:39:24,948 --> 06:39:22,138
yes yes definitely uh we're a six-member

6479
06:39:27,230 --> 06:39:24,958
team first year and we never gave up we

6480
06:39:29,270 --> 06:39:27,240
just kept pushing don't give up that's

6481
06:39:30,770 --> 06:39:29,280
awesome so talk to us about your payload

6482
06:39:32,628 --> 06:39:30,780
how what payload did you put in the

6483
06:39:34,850 --> 06:39:32,638
rocket so our payload is nicknamed near

6484
06:39:37,128 --> 06:39:34,860
i360 it's a near infrared atmospheric

6485
06:39:38,690 --> 06:39:37,138
Imaging system in 360 degrees so

6486
06:39:40,250 --> 06:39:38,700
basically it visualizes infrared

6487
06:39:41,990 --> 06:39:40,260
throughout the duration of the flight in

6488
06:39:43,070 --> 06:39:42,000
360 degrees and Compares it to

6489
06:39:44,810 --> 06:39:43,080
temperature humidity and pressure

6490
06:39:47,510 --> 06:39:44,820
sensors that are located within the

6491
06:39:49,310 --> 06:39:47,520
sensor Bay oh that's awesome so last

6492
06:39:51,350 --> 06:39:49,320
question for you guys I'm Gonna Let You

6493
06:39:53,150 --> 06:39:51,360
Go celebrate anybody back home you want

6494
06:39:54,890 --> 06:39:53,160
to say hi to give a shout out to and

6495

06:39:59,030 --> 06:39:56,580
whole town of East Aurora has always

6497
06:40:00,770 --> 06:39:59,040
been supporting us uh we've got Moog

Foundation they helped fund us uh aw

6500
06:40:06,470 --> 06:40:04,440
Miller they helped 3D print our nose

6501
06:40:08,510 --> 06:40:06,480
cone and there's so many other people

6502
06:40:10,910 --> 06:40:08,520

High School in New York thank you so

6515
06:40:38,330 --> 06:40:35,340
much y'all congratulations

6516
06:40:40,250 --> 06:40:38,340
so Lane we've got another team yep we

6517
06:40:42,350 --> 06:40:40,260
got another team there from Northern

6518
06:40:44,448 --> 06:40:42,360
Arizona University hey how's it going

6519
06:40:45,890 --> 06:40:44,458
today please introduce yourself hi there

6520
06:40:47,030 --> 06:40:45,900
my name is Dawson Purcell and I'm a

6521
06:40:48,830 --> 06:40:47,040
mechanical engineer from northern

6522
06:40:50,390 --> 06:40:48,840
Arizona okay how'd the launch go today

6523
06:40:52,070 --> 06:40:50,400
you know it went pretty good it went

6524
06:40:53,570 --> 06:40:52,080
pretty good uh All Transport Systems

6525
06:40:55,010 --> 06:40:53,580
function nominally uh most of our

6526
06:40:56,390 --> 06:40:55,020
payload systems did function nominally

6527
06:40:57,708 --> 06:40:56,400
we had a little bit of issue with a

6528
06:40:59,690 --> 06:40:57,718
deployments because we did deploy away

6529
06:41:01,490 --> 06:40:59,700
from the body tube to produce any drag

6530
06:41:03,350 --> 06:41:01,500
dude recoveries

6531
06:41:05,628 --> 06:41:03,360
experience a little hiccup for that but

6532
06:41:07,670 --> 06:41:05,638
mostly our systems work nominally yeah

6533
06:41:09,110 --> 06:41:07,680
that's great to hear so what challenges

6534
06:41:11,090 --> 06:41:09,120
have you guys kind of faced over the

6535
06:41:12,110 --> 06:41:11,100
school year yeah you know I think uh

6536
06:41:14,390 --> 06:41:12,120
it's going to be the same with Most

6537
06:41:16,010 --> 06:41:14,400
teens but resources time management that

6538
06:41:18,708 --> 06:41:16,020
kind of thing getting parts on you know

6539
06:41:20,030 --> 06:41:18,718
here on time Northern Arizona actually

6540
06:41:21,650 --> 06:41:20,040
experienced a record-breaking snowfall

6541
06:41:22,910 --> 06:41:21,660
so we had a lot of snow days off and

6542
06:41:24,410 --> 06:41:22,920
we're plowing through the snow just to

6543
06:41:26,990 --> 06:41:24,420
get there and build the rocket Arizona

6544
06:41:29,390 --> 06:41:27,000
yes ma'am wow that's that's incredible

6545
06:41:31,430 --> 06:41:29,400
to hear so uh what advice would you give

6546
06:41:33,350 --> 06:41:31,440
to teams who are new to the competition

6547
06:41:35,690 --> 06:41:33,360
oh my goodness uh start early start

6548
06:41:37,010 --> 06:41:35,700
early and really run through your

6549
06:41:38,690 --> 06:41:37,020
planning

6550
06:41:40,430 --> 06:41:38,700
um look at uh your motor selection and

6551
06:41:41,750 --> 06:41:40,440
shoot oh you can bring your apogee down

6552
06:41:42,948 --> 06:41:41,760
is what I would definitely recommend

6553
06:41:44,208 --> 06:41:42,958
that's one of the biggest things we've

6554
06:41:46,548 --> 06:41:44,218
been seeing a lot of students not

6555
06:41:47,930 --> 06:41:46,558
meeting apogee too so yeah so how many

6556
06:41:49,310 --> 06:41:47,940
people are on your team are you guys a

6557
06:41:50,868 --> 06:41:49,320
bigger team or more of a smaller team

6558
06:41:52,310 --> 06:41:50,878
somewhere in the middle uh for our

6559
06:41:53,628 --> 06:41:52,320
school we're kind of big but maybe not

6560
06:41:56,270 --> 06:41:53,638
compared to some other schools out here

6561
06:41:58,490 --> 06:41:56,280
we typically roll with about 13 uh you

6562
06:42:00,288 --> 06:41:58,500
know individuals in our group we're able

6563
06:42:02,270 --> 06:42:00,298
to bring down six of those individuals

6564
06:42:03,948 --> 06:42:02,280
okay so yeah so how's is a journey out

6565
06:42:07,070 --> 06:42:03,958
here did you guys drive or did you fly

6566
06:42:09,110 --> 06:42:07,080
luckily we uh we flew we did fly out

6567
06:42:10,490 --> 06:42:09,120
here and uh it wasn't too bad you know

6568
06:42:12,288 --> 06:42:10,500
we jumped on the airplane got here

6569
06:42:14,390 --> 06:42:12,298
pretty quick and uh was able to get up

6570
06:42:15,708 --> 06:42:14,400
and get set up yeah great is there

6571
06:42:17,750 --> 06:42:15,718
anyone you want to shout out think any

6572
06:42:19,610 --> 06:42:17,760
sponsors or people back home yeah

6573
06:42:20,810 --> 06:42:19,620
absolutely so uh first you know we

6574
06:42:22,128 --> 06:42:20,820
weren't able to take all of our team and

6575
06:42:24,948 --> 06:42:22,138
those guys worked really hard so it's

6576
06:42:27,048 --> 06:42:24,958
great uh I really like to thank them uh

6577
06:42:29,090 --> 06:42:27,058

6578
06:42:31,030 --> 06:42:29,100
um you know at our University uh Dean

6579
06:42:34,788 --> 06:42:31,040
Wong as well really helped out

6580
06:42:37,430 --> 06:42:34,798
additionally uh NASA NAU Consortium as

6581
06:42:39,470 --> 06:42:37,440
well and WL Gore really came out we had

6582
06:42:41,330 --> 06:42:39,480
a lot of help out there

6583
06:42:43,250 --> 06:42:41,340
um yeah and we actually came out from

6584
06:42:44,570 --> 06:42:43,260
Wisconsin space right majority from

6585
06:42:46,430 --> 06:42:44,580
winning First Nations launched and so

6586
06:42:48,170 --> 06:42:46,440
those guys helped out a lot with us as

all right it's so cool to see different

6593
06:43:04,070 --> 06:43:02,520
states that is that these teens really

6594
06:43:06,230 --> 06:43:04,080
it's the whole spectrum of the state and

6595
06:43:07,788 --> 06:43:06,240
Puerto Rico yeah absolutely you were

6596
06:43:10,368 --> 06:43:07,798
just reading my mind we went from New

6597
06:43:13,010 --> 06:43:10,378
Jersey to Arizona we had Oregon and

6598
06:43:14,650 --> 06:43:13,020
Washington on now now a treat going down

6599
06:43:17,270 --> 06:43:14,660
to the southeast corner of the country

6600
06:43:18,890 --> 06:43:17,280
UCF University of Central Florida you

6601
06:43:20,810 --> 06:43:18,900
heard from them earlier today before

6602
06:43:23,448 --> 06:43:20,820
their launch let's talk to them about

6603
06:43:24,890 --> 06:43:23,458
how did the launch go how are you guys

6604
06:43:26,510 --> 06:43:24,900
feeling after flying the rocket today

6605
06:43:27,890 --> 06:43:26,520
we're feeling awesome man it's been a

6606
06:43:30,170 --> 06:43:27,900
year working on this project and we

6607
06:43:31,430 --> 06:43:30,180
finally made it to lunch then we uh we

6608
06:43:32,750 --> 06:43:31,440
had a lot of failures especially our

6609
06:43:34,368 --> 06:43:32,760
vehicle demonstration and payload

6610
06:43:36,048 --> 06:43:34,378
demonstration flight but we're here we

6611
06:43:37,910 --> 06:43:36,058
built we rebuilt our payload in one week

6612
06:43:39,590 --> 06:43:37,920
and we got to Lodge we recovered safely

6613
06:43:41,448 --> 06:43:39,600
and we're super proud of ourselves so

6614
06:43:43,010 --> 06:43:41,458
let's talk about the altitude and then I

6615
06:43:44,990 --> 06:43:43,020
want to talk about your payload did you

6616
06:43:46,910 --> 06:43:45,000
guys come close to your target altitude

6617
06:43:48,048 --> 06:43:46,920
and then how did your payload perform so

6618
06:43:49,730 --> 06:43:48,058
we were actually a little bit below our

6619
06:43:50,868 --> 06:43:49,740
Target at altitude we had to paint our

6620
06:43:51,830 --> 06:43:50,878
rocket last second we were able to

6621
06:43:53,448 --> 06:43:51,840
recover some of the distance we

6622
06:43:55,128 --> 06:43:53,458
originally lost our payload did

6623
06:43:56,330 --> 06:43:55,138
self-oriented but however we weren't

6624
06:43:58,430 --> 06:43:56,340
able to get the pictures we wanted just

6625
06:44:00,410 --> 06:43:58,440
the lead mechanism fell off however

6626
06:44:01,850 --> 06:44:00,420
again more than we expected and again

6627
06:44:03,350 --> 06:44:01,860
we're really proud of the results either

6628
06:44:04,910 --> 06:44:03,360
way so definitely it sounds like you

6629
06:44:06,590 --> 06:44:04,920
guys would classify this as a very

6630
06:44:08,390 --> 06:44:06,600
successful launch

6631
06:44:10,250 --> 06:44:08,400
definitely so what's going through your

6632
06:44:12,230 --> 06:44:10,260
mind you guys have launched the rocky

6633
06:44:14,330 --> 06:44:12,240
are you guys able to take a breath now

6634
06:44:15,770 --> 06:44:14,340
or or what's up next for you well

6635
06:44:17,868 --> 06:44:15,780
honestly so we're part of an orientation

6636
06:44:20,208 --> 06:44:17,878
called kxr we do various projects we do

6637
06:44:21,230 --> 06:44:20,218
hybrid ion liquid and salt propulsion so

6638
06:44:22,368 --> 06:44:21,240
these kids these kids are gonna keep

6639
06:44:23,810 --> 06:44:22,378
moving on they've been doing amazing

6640
06:44:24,830 --> 06:44:23,820
work and this is our actually most of

6641
06:44:26,570 --> 06:44:24,840
these kids it's their first year doing

6642
06:44:27,590 --> 06:44:26,580
rocketry and they're moving on to bigger

6643
06:44:28,910 --> 06:44:27,600
and better things and they're going to

6644
06:44:30,770 --> 06:44:28,920
keep going and keep working hard so I

6645
06:44:32,628 --> 06:44:30,780
know the managers and I will be working

6646
06:44:33,890 --> 06:44:32,638
on the plar document however these kids

6647
06:44:35,510 --> 06:44:33,900
will be continue doing the amazing stuff

6648
06:44:36,890 --> 06:44:35,520
they're doing already so what's been the

6649
06:44:38,330 --> 06:44:36,900
favorite part and I see a piece of

6650
06:44:39,530 --> 06:44:38,340
Hardware I've got to ask about that

6651
06:44:42,110 --> 06:44:39,540
what's been the favorite part in the

6652
06:44:44,150 --> 06:44:42,120
tell us tell us what we have here uh out

6653
06:44:45,708 --> 06:44:44,160
from your rocket so this is the payload

6654
06:44:47,868 --> 06:44:45,718
integrated launch log we lovingly call

6655
06:44:49,850 --> 06:44:47,878
it the pill it is a cylinder with a

6656
06:44:52,430 --> 06:44:49,860
self-orienting mechanism right here and

6657
06:44:54,048 --> 06:44:52,440
then what once was our lead elevator is

6658
06:44:55,310 --> 06:44:54,058
somewhere in here of our camera it spits

6659
06:44:58,510 --> 06:44:55,320
it out opens the hatch and stuff

6660
06:45:00,650 --> 06:44:58,520
warrants them so if you guys had fun

6661
06:45:02,510 --> 06:45:00,660
it's stressful but it's been fun

6662
06:45:03,770 --> 06:45:02,520
definitely worthwhile that's excellent

6663
06:45:06,410 --> 06:45:03,780

check in with John Eckert to record your

6739
06:54:03,650 --> 06:54:02,340
altitude so that it's cataloged so if

6740
06:54:04,730 --> 06:54:03,660
you haven't had a chance to do that make

the finale of the 2023 NASA student

6754
07:03:41,750 --> 07:03:40,320
launch competition we got five more

6755
07:03:43,128 --> 07:03:41,760
Rockets down on the rails without

6756
07:03:45,230 --> 07:03:43,138
further Ado we're going to send it to

6757
07:03:47,570 --> 07:03:45,240

07:03:51,350 --> 07:03:47,580
us those commentary we'll see you back

6759
07:03:56,030 --> 07:03:53,810
okay we gotta go quick I've been told to

6760
07:03:58,548 --> 07:03:56,040
speed it up so on pad number 10 we have

6761
07:03:59,750 --> 07:03:58,558
Rams and Rockets this is Angela state

6762
07:04:04,390 --> 07:03:59,760
universe

6763
07:04:10,190 --> 07:04:07,730
okay so I can just so this is the name

6764
07:04:13,968 --> 07:04:10,200
of the rocket is candy Ram it's 26.7

6765
07:04:16,250 --> 07:04:13,978
pounds 5.15 inch diameter 8.63 feet tall

6766
07:04:18,048 --> 07:04:16,260
candy cane inspired it's got cads which

6767
07:04:22,670 --> 07:04:18,058
is an acronym for the team members names

6768
07:04:26,570 --> 07:04:22,680
it's flying on a Arrow C the Aerotech

6769
07:04:29,510 --> 07:04:26,580
k1050 it should go 5100 feet

6770
07:04:31,850 --> 07:04:29,520
on pad number 10 we have a clear sky we

6771
07:04:37,740 --> 07:04:31,860
have a clear range we're gonna go in

6772
07:04:42,708 --> 07:04:37,750
five four three two one ignition

6773
07:04:47,448 --> 07:04:45,530
so this rocket has candy cane inspired

6774
07:04:49,850 --> 07:04:47,458
paint job using yellow and blue scrape

6775
07:04:51,590 --> 07:04:49,860
meat this has a linear actuator to push

6776
07:05:04,788 --> 07:04:51,600
nose come out which releases a camera

6777
07:05:04,798 --> 07:05:18,770
all right

6778
07:05:30,948 --> 07:05:20,628
okay the rock is probably a couple

6779
07:05:37,850 --> 07:05:34,190
okay we're about a thousand feet up

6780
07:05:43,968 --> 07:05:42,230
there shoots out all right this rocket

6781
07:05:45,708 --> 07:05:43,978
with this team is the first time that

6782
07:05:48,410 --> 07:05:45,718
they're out here has a scissor lift

6783
07:05:50,570 --> 07:05:48,420
mechanism with a pendulum and gravity

6784
07:05:52,670 --> 07:05:50,580
they painted it like the candy cane

6785
07:05:55,490 --> 07:05:52,680
following their spirals

6786
07:05:57,830 --> 07:05:55,500
and then they also did 3D paint or 3D

6787
07:06:01,788 --> 07:05:57,840
prints the inside parts that also match

6788
07:06:05,090 --> 07:06:01,798
the school colors so the original team

6789
07:06:06,948 --> 07:06:05,100
was four members the team worked from

6790
07:06:08,868 --> 07:06:06,958
scratch and they had no history to work

6791
07:06:11,628 --> 07:06:08,878
from so pretty remarkable they got that

6792
07:06:13,850 --> 07:06:11,638
all together as a team looks to be like

6793
07:06:16,610 --> 07:06:13,860
a good flight hopefully the

6794
07:06:18,410 --> 07:06:16,620
system does what it's supposed to do

6795
07:06:28,250 --> 07:06:18,420
we're supposed to be seeing a scissor

6796
07:06:28,260 --> 07:06:33,048
always things going

6797
07:06:35,930 --> 07:06:34,670
okay I'll read the card as they're

6798
07:06:39,230 --> 07:06:35,940
coming back in

6799
07:06:42,670 --> 07:06:39,240
so on pad number 11. we have Morris

6800
07:06:45,468 --> 07:06:42,680
County 4-H this is

6801
07:06:48,230 --> 07:06:45,478
resisto Jets rocketry the Morris County

6802
07:06:50,288 --> 07:06:48,240
4-H team at a Morristown New Jersey the

6803
07:06:53,868 --> 07:06:50,298
name of this rocket is baby blue

6804
07:06:59,930 --> 07:06:53,878
18.2 pounds four inch diameter seven and

6805
07:07:05,750 --> 07:07:03,410
flying on an Aerotech k1100 Blue Thunder

6806
07:07:08,628 --> 07:07:05,760
it's the white and red rock it should go

6807
07:07:11,090 --> 07:07:08,638
about 3 800 feet and then this one does

6808
07:07:13,010 --> 07:07:11,100
carry a completely external Mission

6809
07:07:15,170 --> 07:07:13,020
payload

6810
07:07:17,510 --> 07:07:15,180
we have a clear sky we have a clear

6811
07:07:21,230 --> 07:07:17,520
range we are going to launch Morris

6812
07:07:23,448 --> 07:07:21,240
County 4-H baby blue it's painted red

6813
07:07:28,660 --> 07:07:23,458
though okay we're gonna watch in five

6814
07:07:32,810 --> 07:07:30,770
[Music]

6815
07:07:34,850 --> 07:07:32,820
nice boost on that one

6816
07:07:37,730 --> 07:07:34,860
this one does have a large externally

6817
07:07:39,650 --> 07:07:37,740
mounted camera arm it's a usli payload

6818
07:07:42,350 --> 07:07:39,660
challenge robotic arm on side of rocket

6819
07:07:44,150 --> 07:07:42,360
that deploys after landing we weren't

6820
07:07:48,350 --> 07:07:44,160
able to finish the software in time so

6821
07:07:52,730 --> 07:07:50,750
at an event on the rocket

6822
07:07:55,310 --> 07:07:52,740
we were the smallest team just five

6823
07:07:57,590 --> 07:07:55,320
people our first year here very excited

6824
07:07:59,690 --> 07:07:57,600
most of our team is Nar Jr level one

6825
07:08:01,070 --> 07:07:59,700
well welcome and congrats being nerd

6826
07:08:04,548 --> 07:08:01,080
junior level one

6827
07:08:27,468 --> 07:08:04,558
second flight landed hard and might have

6828
07:08:33,048 --> 07:08:31,128
so this this one also with this team up

6829
07:08:35,690 --> 07:08:33,058
there is that about a thousand feet up

6830
07:08:36,650 --> 07:08:35,700
so we should see the parachute there it

6831
07:08:39,250 --> 07:08:36,660
is

6832
07:08:42,890 --> 07:08:39,260
oh hit the parachute

6833
07:08:45,350 --> 07:08:42,900
Get It Free itself

6834
07:08:47,150 --> 07:08:45,360
it won't land as hard but it's not going

6835
07:08:49,070 --> 07:08:47,160
to be as soft either

6836
07:08:51,948 --> 07:08:49,080
well maybe not never mind that hit

6837
07:08:53,628 --> 07:08:51,958
pretty hard so this team does um they

6838
07:08:55,730 --> 07:08:53,638
also like to put stripes on the rocket

6839
07:08:57,048 --> 07:08:55,740
for successful flights I don't know if

6840
07:08:58,788 --> 07:08:57,058
they're gonna put a stripe on this one

6841
07:09:01,128 --> 07:08:58,798
for this flight

6842
07:09:03,170 --> 07:09:01,138
this team this rocket was also cold

6843
07:09:05,330 --> 07:09:03,180
weather and high wind test it is going

6844
07:09:08,510 --> 07:09:05,340
in 20 degree weather in 15 mile an hour

6845
07:09:10,610 --> 07:09:08,520
winds and this team also does carry an

6846
07:09:15,590 --> 07:09:10,620
official photographer on the team so

6847
07:09:22,190 --> 07:09:20,570
okay now we are going to pad number 12.

6848
07:09:25,190 --> 07:09:22,200
I didn't even say what it is you know

6849
07:09:30,948 --> 07:09:28,010
so on pad number 12 we have Army rocket

6850
07:09:33,230 --> 07:09:30,958
engineering Sciences Ares

6851
07:09:35,570 --> 07:09:33,240
United States military at a West Point

6852
07:09:38,948 --> 07:09:35,580
New York uh United States Military

6853
07:09:42,890 --> 07:09:38,958
Academy name of this rocket is

6854
07:09:44,048 --> 07:09:42,900
h-a-s-t-a-1 14.2 pounds four inch in

6855
07:09:46,368 --> 07:09:44,058
diameter

6856
07:09:49,208 --> 07:09:46,378
7.7 feet long

6857
07:09:53,448 --> 07:09:49,218
the thrust away ratio in this one is

6858
07:09:56,448 --> 07:09:53,458
31-1 so this is going to be quick it's

6859
07:09:59,208 --> 07:09:56,458
supposed to have 35 G's off the pad so

6860
07:10:01,128 --> 07:09:59,218
this will be a quick one up there thanks

6861
07:10:02,330 --> 07:10:01,138
they are they're pretty Rowdy over there

6862
07:10:04,310 --> 07:10:02,340
so uh

6863
07:10:06,048 --> 07:10:04,320
[Applause]

6864
07:10:08,510 --> 07:10:06,058
get them talking too much we'll do

6865
07:10:12,170 --> 07:10:08,520
another push-up contest so there it says

6866
07:10:14,448 --> 07:10:12,180
remote area survey Pro called rasp as an

6867
07:10:16,670 --> 07:10:14,458
autonomous deployment Landing site

6868
07:10:18,468 --> 07:10:16,680
survey probe Imaging of the environment

6869
07:10:20,570 --> 07:10:18,478
controlled by RF command

6870
07:10:23,150 --> 07:10:20,580
this is the first team to ever compete

6871
07:10:25,850 --> 07:10:23,160
in the NASA SLI competition from West

6872
07:10:27,770 --> 07:10:25,860
Point this rocket is dedicated to the

6873
07:10:30,410 --> 07:10:27,780
third Armored Division fighting in World

6874
07:10:33,170 --> 07:10:30,420
War II spearhead Victory or death Beat

6875
07:10:36,230 --> 07:10:33,180
Navy wait a minute

6876
07:10:38,150 --> 07:10:36,240
trying to sneak that one in there

6877
07:10:40,190 --> 07:10:38,160
I do want to also just mention

6878
07:10:41,990 --> 07:10:40,200
um the teams they almost named the

6879
07:10:45,170 --> 07:10:42,000
payload Rebecca so I don't know the

6880
07:10:48,708 --> 07:10:45,180
story behind Rebecca they also do want

6881
07:10:50,230 --> 07:10:48,718
to thank Mr mosquero for your patience I

6882
07:10:52,490 --> 07:10:50,240
guess they've bothered him quite a bit

6883
07:10:54,830 --> 07:10:52,500
and then this is

6884
07:10:56,930 --> 07:10:54,840
um this team has also claimed they've

6885
07:10:59,690 --> 07:10:56,940
had to conduct open heart surgery on the

6886
07:11:01,670 --> 07:10:59,700
rocket the team's famous quote is do you

6887
07:11:03,890 --> 07:11:01,680
have a soldering iron you can go talk to

6888
07:11:06,230 --> 07:11:03,900
Auburn there's a team on there they got

6889
07:11:08,868 --> 07:11:06,240
solder over there on this team also has

6890
07:11:11,270 --> 07:11:08,878
encountered spontaneous disassembly

6891
07:11:13,788 --> 07:11:11,280
during sub-scale flight they set

6892
07:11:15,708 --> 07:11:13,798
batteries out they also want the

6893
07:11:18,170 --> 07:11:15,718
audience to know the camera is not

6894
07:11:19,968 --> 07:11:18,180
upside down this time

6895
07:11:20,930 --> 07:11:19,978
there's a lot of story lines with this

6896
07:11:22,670 --> 07:11:20,940
team

6897
07:11:24,230 --> 07:11:22,680
um so for for those that are unaware

6898
07:11:27,170 --> 07:11:24,240
students will be coming out of the

6899
07:11:30,468 --> 07:11:27,180
academy as adults with Bachelors serving

6900
07:11:31,850 --> 07:11:30,478
as officers for uh for the US Army so we

6901
07:11:32,930 --> 07:11:31,860
want to thank you for your service in

6902
07:11:36,048 --> 07:11:32,940
advance let's give them a round of

6903
07:11:40,250 --> 07:11:38,448
and one of my notes so this is my notes

6904
07:11:42,350 --> 07:11:40,260
during the week this team has a lot of

6905
07:11:45,048 --> 07:11:42,360
high energy if you didn't notice so that

6906
07:11:47,330 --> 07:11:45,058
if you be careful we might change you to

6907
07:11:49,548 --> 07:11:47,340
a push-up contest

6908
07:11:53,208 --> 07:11:49,558
um this team also does have an official

6909
07:11:55,128 --> 07:11:53,218
Pao a Publix Affair officer role in the

6910
07:11:57,948 --> 07:11:55,138
team so you got this team rolls deep

6911
07:12:00,530 --> 07:11:57,958
they don't mess around so with all that

6912
07:12:02,868 --> 07:12:00,540
aside what's this gonna take off really

6913
07:12:08,150 --> 07:12:02,878
quick so this is on pad number 12 on a

6914
07:12:10,430 --> 07:12:08,160
Aerotek k2050 super Thunder 35 G's we

6915
07:12:13,128 --> 07:12:10,440
have a clear sky we have a clear range

6916
07:12:20,510 --> 07:12:13,138
we're gonna launch this one in five four

6917
07:12:20,520 --> 07:12:25,580
they are pretty excited over there

6918
07:12:25,590 --> 07:12:32,930
[Applause]

6919
07:12:32,940 --> 07:12:38,750
okay there's an event

6920
07:12:46,310 --> 07:12:41,750
okay drove parachute is out on that one

6921
07:12:58,310 --> 07:12:46,320
main is set for 525 feet

6922
07:13:03,760 --> 07:13:00,650
it's still pretty high up there probably

6923
07:13:18,730 --> 07:13:03,770
another 3 000 feet at least

6924
07:13:24,368 --> 07:13:21,410
we're still probably another 2 000 feet

6925
07:13:27,468 --> 07:13:24,378
on maybe even a little bit more

6926
07:13:30,230 --> 07:13:27,478
yeah I would do a heads up on this one

6927
07:13:32,390 --> 07:13:30,240
so point at it look at it let your

6928
07:13:34,490 --> 07:13:32,400
neighbors know

6929
07:13:36,948 --> 07:13:34,500
look up point out and let your neighbors

6930
07:13:42,770 --> 07:13:39,890
mean parachute is out on this one but it

6931
07:13:44,448 --> 07:13:42,780
is like by the crowd look at it point at

6932
07:13:46,670 --> 07:13:44,458
it let your neighbors know it should be

6933
07:13:49,368 --> 07:13:46,680
in the open area don't touch it when it

6934
07:13:53,208 --> 07:13:52,310
looks like it should be right out in the

6935
07:13:55,968 --> 07:13:53,218
open

6936
07:13:58,430 --> 07:13:55,978
very close

6937
07:14:01,310 --> 07:13:58,440
okay looks like it's down

6938
07:14:01,320 --> 07:14:06,460
who's ready for a push-up contest

6939
07:14:06,470 --> 07:14:14,530
[Music]

6940
07:14:14,540 --> 07:14:21,580
oh wow I like the little uh

6941
07:14:23,350 --> 07:14:22,090
[Applause]

6942
07:14:26,090 --> 07:14:23,360
[Music]

6943
07:14:36,590 --> 07:14:26,100
that is a very subdued team that's what

6944
07:14:41,170 --> 07:14:37,968
because

6945
07:14:45,350 --> 07:14:41,180
it's 41. okay on pad number 41

6946
07:14:47,448 --> 07:14:45,360
pad 41 this is 49er rocketry team

6947
07:14:49,548 --> 07:14:47,458
from UNC Charlotte out of Charlotte

6948
07:14:56,990 --> 07:14:49,558
North Carolina

6949
07:15:00,708 --> 07:14:58,548
we'll have to explain that one to me

6950
07:15:03,708 --> 07:15:00,718
later 44 and a half pounds

6951
07:15:08,330 --> 07:15:03,718
diameter it used to be 11 and a half

6952
07:15:09,948 --> 07:15:08,340
feet oh no no it's 9.25 feet tall at 600

6953
07:15:13,010 --> 07:15:09,958
feet at Main deployment vehicle

6954
07:15:15,010 --> 07:15:13,020
separates into two independent sections

6955
07:15:18,110 --> 07:15:15,020
this says

6956
07:15:20,628 --> 07:15:18,120
about time you showed up

6957
07:15:22,788 --> 07:15:20,638
600 feet vehicle separates into two

6958
07:15:25,430 --> 07:15:22,798
spots

6959
07:15:29,810 --> 07:15:25,440
and it whoops

6960
07:15:31,368 --> 07:15:29,820
this is flying on a cesaroni CTI l1720

6961
07:15:34,310 --> 07:15:31,378
white Thunder

6962
07:15:36,048 --> 07:15:34,320
should go about 4 200 feet this had a

6963
07:15:37,850 --> 07:15:36,058
very integrated airframe that the

6964
07:15:40,490 --> 07:15:37,860
airframe door opens and the payload

6965
07:15:42,048 --> 07:15:40,500
Mission operates asynchronously I had to

6966
07:15:45,708 --> 07:15:42,058
look that word up learned a new word

6967
07:15:47,868 --> 07:15:45,718
this week for their subscale flight they

6968
07:15:50,390 --> 07:15:47,878
said it had to have a funeral they had a

6969
07:15:52,548 --> 07:15:50,400
funeral for their subscale flight it may

6970
07:15:55,670 --> 07:15:52,558
have dug its own grave

6971
07:15:58,910 --> 07:15:55,680
so last year the uh oh and then last

6972
07:16:02,570 --> 07:15:58,920
year's participating team member is now

6973
07:16:04,610 --> 07:16:02,580
the team's mentor and so the same

6974
07:16:08,150 --> 07:16:04,620
occurrence happened the year prior the

6975
07:16:10,010 --> 07:16:08,160
year priors Mentor was a participant so

6976
07:16:13,070 --> 07:16:10,020
that's pretty neat they've got a plan

6977
07:16:16,368 --> 07:16:13,080
going forward year after year so we're

6978
07:16:18,770 --> 07:16:16,378
gonna go on pad number 41 we have a

6979
07:16:22,128 --> 07:16:18,780
we have a clear sky we have a clear

6980
07:16:30,650 --> 07:16:22,138
range we are launching in five four

6981
07:16:35,868 --> 07:16:33,110
maybe a little overstable on the Boost

6982
07:16:37,730 --> 07:16:35,878
or maybe the body tube was wanting to go

6983
07:16:39,890 --> 07:16:37,740
one way the rocket go the other way but

6984
07:16:43,190 --> 07:16:39,900
still went up the other way

6985
07:16:47,868 --> 07:16:45,350
there's an event there's the backup to

6986
07:16:51,230 --> 07:16:47,878
the apogee

6987
07:16:53,090 --> 07:16:51,240
small drunk parachute is out main is set

6988
07:16:55,968 --> 07:16:53,100
for 600 feet

6989
07:16:57,530 --> 07:16:55,978
oh looks like the main pair shoots out

6990
07:17:02,390 --> 07:16:57,540
early

6991
07:17:09,110 --> 07:17:04,310
now there's another piece that's a

6992
07:17:15,530 --> 07:17:12,170
so it looks like unfortunately the main

6993
07:17:17,750 --> 07:17:15,540
parachute is up there by itself

6994
07:17:23,410 --> 07:17:17,760
the rest of the rocket is coming down on

6995
07:17:29,208 --> 07:17:26,208
oh maybe it's supposed to recover in

6996
07:17:30,590 --> 07:17:29,218
multiple pieces so we're approaching oh

6997
07:17:32,868 --> 07:17:30,600
they're okay so there's just there's a

6998
07:17:35,090 --> 07:17:32,878
lot of parachutes on this one

6999
07:17:37,430 --> 07:17:35,100
so they got one pair of shoe that might

7000
07:17:40,310 --> 07:17:37,440
land in Tennessee and then this one here

7001
07:17:55,868 --> 07:17:40,320
is going to land here in Alabama so

7002
07:18:01,670 --> 07:18:00,170
okay we are on pad 42. everyone give

7003
07:18:03,890 --> 07:18:01,680
yourselves a round of applause this is

7004
07:18:06,948 --> 07:18:03,900
the last launch of the day

7005
07:18:09,350 --> 07:18:06,958
yeah this has uh been a been a fun day

7006
07:18:11,570 --> 07:18:09,360
burn some calories Frozen to put out a

7007
07:18:13,250 --> 07:18:11,580
little bit of some uh fires but we have

7008
07:18:14,090 --> 07:18:13,260
a good day a lot of good Rockets flew

7009
07:18:16,670 --> 07:18:14,100
well

7010
07:18:18,288 --> 07:18:16,680
a couple of bumps and bruises on some a

7011
07:18:20,510 --> 07:18:18,298
lot of fun experiments we were testing

7012
07:18:22,610 --> 07:18:20,520
and we're on the last one for this this

7013
07:18:27,350 --> 07:18:22,620
year's 2023

7014
07:18:29,810 --> 07:18:27,360
uh 2023 uh SLI usli competition so this

7015
07:18:32,868 --> 07:18:29,820
side this team is WSU Everett rocket

7016
07:18:36,350 --> 07:18:32,878
team out of WSU ever and Everett

7017
07:18:38,090 --> 07:18:36,360
Washington named the rocket is C1 40.27

7018
07:18:40,670 --> 07:18:38,100
pounds five and a half inch diameter 10

7019
07:18:44,208 --> 07:18:40,680
feet tall detecting a vertical Landing

7020
07:18:47,030 --> 07:18:44,218
the legs deploy at 400 feet this is the

7021
07:18:50,448 --> 07:18:47,040
NASA usli Servo

7022
07:18:53,330 --> 07:18:50,458
um let's see actuated camera and Landing

7023
07:18:56,930 --> 07:18:53,340
Lake deployment system

7024
07:18:59,750 --> 07:18:56,940
this is like a cesaroni l 1030 Redline

7025
07:19:00,770 --> 07:18:59,760
Circle 4100 feet is their first time

7026
07:19:02,750 --> 07:19:00,780
here

7027
07:19:04,730 --> 07:19:02,760
they did have it wrapped in a magic

7028
07:19:07,368 --> 07:19:04,740
color they have 12 total team members

7029
07:19:09,288 --> 07:19:07,378
eight on the usli team six of them

7030
07:19:11,150 --> 07:19:09,298
certified level two in the last year

7031
07:19:14,030 --> 07:19:11,160
they wanted to make the comment this

7032
07:19:16,670 --> 07:19:14,040
rocket does not Skip Leg Day so we'll

7033
07:19:26,530 --> 07:19:16,680
see how the legs perform last launch of

7034
07:19:31,310 --> 07:19:29,330
okay we're gonna wait one second on the

7035
07:19:34,670 --> 07:19:31,320
second part

7036
07:19:37,310 --> 07:19:34,680
of the UNC rocket it's I think it's it's

7037
07:19:39,170 --> 07:19:37,320
payload or nose cone

7038
07:20:01,448 --> 07:19:39,180
it's Northeast of us but I just want to

7039
07:20:08,628 --> 07:20:05,390
okay we've got the we got the uh last

7040
07:20:39,770 --> 07:20:08,638
launch now that one is good to go

7041
07:20:46,070 --> 07:20:42,110
there's there's no charge with it though

7042
07:20:46,080 --> 07:20:50,448
okay okay

7043
07:20:54,590 --> 07:20:52,490
we didn't Skip Leg Day we didn't want to

7044
07:20:58,670 --> 07:20:54,600
skip this last rocket launch so this is

7045
07:21:01,368 --> 07:20:58,680
the conclusion of the 2023 USL SLI with

7046
07:21:02,990 --> 07:21:01,378
this final rocket we have a clear sky we

7047
07:21:14,410 --> 07:21:03,000
have a clear range we're going to launch

7048
07:21:18,350 --> 07:21:17,208
I see the light the lights came out a

7049
07:21:21,350 --> 07:21:18,360
little early

7050
07:21:25,368 --> 07:21:21,360
when to show off the legs I guess

7051
07:21:32,990 --> 07:21:27,948
yep

7052
07:21:40,730 --> 07:21:35,990
the main parachute oh the legs are going

7053
07:21:44,930 --> 07:21:43,128
okay heads up on the upper part under

7054
07:21:47,448 --> 07:21:44,940
parachute you want to get out from under

7055
07:22:04,570 --> 07:21:47,458
the tents just in case out from under

7056
07:22:09,170 --> 07:22:07,010
all right well give yourselves a hand

7057
07:22:13,850 --> 07:22:09,180
that was a quite a suspenseful finish

7058
07:22:17,510 --> 07:22:13,860
but that this concludes our 2023 usli

7059
07:22:20,990 --> 07:22:17,520
SLI competition thank you NASA thank you

over to you

7070
07:22:44,628 --> 07:22:42,840
we certainly appreciate all the

7071
07:22:46,610 --> 07:22:44,638
incredible work you've done bringing

7072
07:22:49,250 --> 07:22:46,620
these launches to life for everybody uh

7073
07:22:51,770 --> 07:22:49,260
here at the field and back home as you

7074
07:22:53,868 --> 07:22:51,780
saw we have completed all of our Rockets

7075
07:22:55,788 --> 07:22:53,878
behind us the crowds went in and out but

7076
07:22:56,810 --> 07:22:55,798
we do get a talk with the team that I've

7077
07:22:58,070 --> 07:22:56,820
been fortunate enough to get to know

7078
07:22:59,810 --> 07:22:58,080
over the years University of

7079
07:23:02,330 --> 07:22:59,820
Massachusetts Amherst so y'all tell us

7080
07:23:04,010 --> 07:23:02,340
how your launch went today uh it went

7081
07:23:05,090 --> 07:23:04,020
quite well we had some troubles uh

7082
07:23:07,190 --> 07:23:05,100
throughout this year with some of our

7083
07:23:09,230 --> 07:23:07,200
recovery stuff but that all worked

7084
07:23:11,750 --> 07:23:09,240
perfectly today and our apogee was

7085
07:23:13,490 --> 07:23:11,760
within 51 feet of our Target apogee so

7086
07:23:14,930 --> 07:23:13,500
we're quite pleased with that 51 feet

7087
07:23:17,270 --> 07:23:14,940
that's really impressive now you talked

7088
07:23:19,010 --> 07:23:17,280
about kind of getting the road here and

7089
07:23:20,570 --> 07:23:19,020
well really the road getting here

7090
07:23:22,128 --> 07:23:20,580
involves you guys picking up some

7091
07:23:24,230 --> 07:23:22,138
important pieces of Hardware didn't it

7092
07:23:25,910 --> 07:23:24,240
yeah that's right so about two weeks ago

7093
07:23:28,070 --> 07:23:25,920
we had to do a launch down in Maryland

7094
07:23:29,930 --> 07:23:28,080
so it was already quite a hike for

7095
07:23:32,030 --> 07:23:29,940
Massachusetts unfortunately the rocket

7096
07:23:33,708 --> 07:23:32,040
got stuck in a tree and we weren't able

7097
07:23:35,810 --> 07:23:33,718
to recover it on the day of launch so

7098
07:23:37,368 --> 07:23:35,820
actually we picked up the rocket on our

7099
07:23:39,230 --> 07:23:37,378
drive down to Alabama from Massachusetts

7100
07:23:41,090 --> 07:23:39,240
hitting that pit stop along the way to

7101
07:23:43,010 --> 07:23:41,100
finally pick up our rocket well and what

7102
07:23:45,468 --> 07:23:43,020
a beautiful rock it is now you guys have

7103
07:23:48,170 --> 07:23:45,478
any fun Traditions that you do uh

7104
07:23:50,628 --> 07:23:48,180
beforehand uh we definitely do this is a

7105
07:23:53,208 --> 07:23:50,638
story love to tell so about four years

7106
07:23:55,190 --> 07:23:53,218
ago we were heading up to our launch

7107
07:23:56,628 --> 07:23:55,200
site in Northern Vermont and one of the

7108
07:23:59,090 --> 07:23:56,638
teams accidentally crossed across the

7109
07:24:00,830 --> 07:23:59,100
border into Canada and they checked the

7110
07:24:02,930 --> 07:24:00,840
car for anything that they might need to

7111
07:24:04,968 --> 07:24:02,940
confiscate left the entire rocket and

7112
07:24:06,948 --> 07:24:04,978
all the black powder charges the motor

7113
07:24:08,990 --> 07:24:06,958
the only thing they took from us was one

7114
07:24:10,850 --> 07:24:09,000
Clementine so now for good luck before

7115
07:24:13,250 --> 07:24:10,860
each launch we eat Clementines and today

7116
07:24:14,628 --> 07:24:13,260
it worked that's awesome I love the way

7117
07:24:16,610 --> 07:24:14,638
Traditions come together and certainly

7118
07:24:18,048 --> 07:24:16,620
that's one of my favorite stories uh

7119
07:24:19,548 --> 07:24:18,058
anybody back home you want to give a

7120
07:24:21,708 --> 07:24:19,558
shout out to any sponsors any professors

7121
07:24:23,510 --> 07:24:21,718
anybody certainly so we'd like to give a

7122
07:24:25,850 --> 07:24:23,520

7149
07:25:22,910 --> 07:25:20,940

successful launches a couple

7154
07:25:33,530 --> 07:25:31,798
abnormalities but way fewer than you'd

7155
07:25:35,330 --> 07:25:33,540
see at a normal launch these teams

7156
07:25:37,788 --> 07:25:35,340
worked really really hard for nine

7157
07:25:39,708 --> 07:25:37,798
months they designed these Rockets they

7158
07:25:42,530 --> 07:25:39,718
chose their altitudes in October they

7159
07:25:43,910 --> 07:25:42,540
chose their Motors in January they built

7160
07:25:45,288 --> 07:25:43,920
the rockets in February so they did all

7161
07:25:46,368 --> 07:25:45,298
that they had to tell us how high it was

7162
07:25:48,110 --> 07:25:46,378
going to go before they ever built it

7163
07:25:50,510 --> 07:25:48,120
and flew it and they went through design

7164
07:25:52,070 --> 07:25:50,520
reviews with our NASA Engineers uh

7165
07:25:56,390 --> 07:25:52,080
picking them apart you know all year

7166
07:25:57,830 --> 07:25:56,400
long so it's just so much fun to see the

7167
07:25:59,690 --> 07:25:57,840
end of the year to have them come to

7168
07:26:01,070 --> 07:25:59,700
Huntsville and to launch these Rockets

7169
07:26:03,830 --> 07:26:01,080
with us

7170
07:26:06,170 --> 07:26:03,840
um and we get to watch just the teams

7171
07:26:08,570 --> 07:26:06,180
have such a great experience we're

7172
07:26:10,490 --> 07:26:08,580
really hoping that some of the students

7173
07:26:13,548 --> 07:26:10,500
out there might do student launch in the

7174
07:26:15,468 --> 07:26:13,558
future so I did want to mention that if

7175
07:26:16,548 --> 07:26:15,478
you are a high school first thing you

7176
07:26:17,628 --> 07:26:16,558
want to do for high school or middle

7177
07:26:20,030 --> 07:26:17,638
school if you want to join student

7178
07:26:21,948 --> 07:26:20,040
launch is do the American rocketry

7179
07:26:24,048 --> 07:26:21,958
challenge or rockets for schools there's

7180
07:26:26,330 --> 07:26:24,058
a qualification process and you can

7181
07:26:28,968 --> 07:26:26,340
potentially end up in student launch but

7182
07:26:32,570 --> 07:26:28,978
for universities and colleges any team

7183
07:26:34,250 --> 07:26:32,580
can apply any U.S team can apply we take

7184
07:26:36,468 --> 07:26:34,260
proposals starting in the middle of

7185
07:26:38,868 --> 07:26:36,478
August so we're really looking forward

7186
07:26:40,310 --> 07:26:38,878
to next year since we got to see it's so

7187
07:26:42,170 --> 07:26:40,320
much fun once you come out here and you

7188
07:26:44,270 --> 07:26:42,180
do this you just want to do it again so

7189
07:26:46,490 --> 07:26:44,280
I'm ready for next year

7190
07:26:49,250 --> 07:26:46,500
um so I had a couple things I wanted to

7191
07:26:52,128 --> 07:26:49,260

7192
07:26:53,930 --> 07:26:52,138

with the National Association for

7221
07:27:50,930 --> 07:27:49,620
rocketry that's why we get to come out

7222
07:27:52,310 --> 07:27:50,940
that's why we get to bring you a live

7223

7252
07:28:52,250 --> 07:28:50,100
whatever reason logistically and they

7253
07:28:53,750 --> 07:28:52,260

7254
07:28:55,190 --> 07:28:53,760
great job and we're looking forward to

7255
07:28:56,510 --> 07:28:55,200
