Northern Colorado Rocketry
2023-01-07 January Launch

Atlas Site - Pawnee Grasslands

Saturday January 7th, 2023

Launch Summary

17 differnt fliers helped warm the skies for our first launch of the new year.  Waiver and range opened by 9.  Praise and Thanks to Jack Matthews for towing and to Bob Dixon and JD and Jesse Frey and Jon Scuba and Art Hoag for help setting the range.  Notable flights of the day included a two stage shot by Scott Dukes, a dual rocket boosted glider drag race between father and son, a Tripoli Level One Certification by Mike Nelson and a captivating launch of a Mercury Redstone.  

Weather Conditions

Eventually, another beautiful winter day on the range.  A cold cloud cover slowly burned off and lifted by nine-thirty and the sun gently warmed up the crowd.  Sparsley snow covered ground and there was barely a whisper of wind.
