***RE-POSTPONED***

Due to ongoing red flag fire conditions, we will be unable to conduct our launch in Amesbury on the 16th of November. We will see what we can do to reschedule in December.

To make it absolutely clear, CMASS does not allow "sparky" motors at any of our launches.

Our November launches have been known to range from warm to frigid. This one was right in the middle. The winds were low but unpredicable coming from several directions and changing. Turnout appeared to be lgihtner than usual but we got around 250 flights in and a lot of hot dogs were consumed. The night launch was a lot of fun. It was hard to count heads in the dark but at least a dozen people stayed and there were about that many flights. There are photos in the gallery here and here. And a video here. More pictures here .

Please read excellant article in the "Boston Globe" 10/12/09 page b5 "Modern Icarus took off with the right stuff". Also go to the students web site (space.1337arts.com) . They launched a balloon to 93 thousand feet with a camera in a styrofoam  cooler attached to the balloon. Now they want to launch a camera on a rocket. great article.
