The club I went to was amazing, not just little rockets that people launch, also really big ones up to more than 2 meters tall from base to nosecone. The big rockets can reach altitudes up to about 4000 feet above ground because of their extremely powerful rocket motors which burn solid rocket fuel, fire going down the center tube in high speed straight down to the nozzle and burning out to generate thrust.
I've also been to the Dooms day camp during the Term 3 break last year which took 3 days and there were very impressive launches that happened along the way.
Here are some photos and videos of the past at the Perth advanced rocketry club:

Why was it called a dooms day camp?
ReplyDeleteBecause it is known as the last few days of rocket launching for the Year, and these last few days are at a camp site up over the hills.
