FLY YOUR ROCKET, IT'S A BLAST

Model Rocketry is seeing more and more people wanting to fly their own rocket.

Model rocketry has been around for decades, and it's just as much fun today as it was back in the 1970's when it really exploded [a pun] onto the scene.  For as little as $20 and as much as $15,000 you can launch your own rocket as high as even 20,000 feet [which requires FAA clearance].

These rockets can carry cameras, altimeters, and pretty much anything you want to put up very, very high.  The photos are a real hit because photos and videos from over a thousand feet up are uniquely fascinating, especially when you sent them to your friends or post them on social media.

Long ago I fired off a couple of rockets and it was a blast.  Try your hand at it and go to this website:  https://www.nar.org and see what you think.

I'm Max, and that's the way I see it!
