After the first of the year my desktop PC started having hardware issues and it is the one I use for most space art, research, programming and other things. I've finally got it back up and running.
ROCKETS!
I heard of a rocketry competition through Soundingrocket.org in November, however after researching the kind and scale of rockets used I had to conclude that my former school would not have the resources to meet such an awesome task.
Scaling Down
So I had an idea (cue wicked laughter). I will attempt to launch a smaller mid scale rocket and take some measurements from the flight using the reliable Aurdino board. I have never launched a hobby rocket before, and I am still in the research and planning stages; however, I will be sure to post all of the work here as it progresses.
