NMSS-10, December 12, 2014

NMSS-10

NMSS-10 and NMSS-11 were launched from West Mesa High School in Albuquerque as part of STEM day on December 12, 2014. NMSS-10 was a West Mesa flight and NMSS-11 (launched the same day) was a Valley High School flight.

The launch and recovery were picture perfect — including perfect pictures of the NMSS-10 burst.

Images of the burst are below along with a link to a video. More NMSS-10 info to be uploaded soon.
