CranSEDS R1 Launch!!!


Saturday 5th of May 2012





It was 9:00h and the rocket had never been completely assembled, the avionics and the flight computer had never been completely tested, the pirotechnic igniters had never seen before, the launch pad was much shorter than expected, the firing system was not tested and the weather was not seems to help too much. 

What happened?
