Sean, James and I helped with the Masten Space Systems booth since our friends were a little short on people to do both the booth and the static firings of the rocket motors. I also got some pictures around the show, but not like a spectator would have who actually came to see the whole thing. The highlights of the day were... - Armadillo Aerospace made their first attempt at Level 1 of the NASA Lunar Lander Challenge.
- A Rocket Belt demonstration had a man flying on a rocket in front of the crowd.
- A large high-power (hobby) rocket called Phoenix XL wowed the crowd with a perfect flight, and demonstrated why rocketry enthusiasts are enthusiastic about it. It flew 3 miles straight up, going well over the speed of sound.
