Any PICLISTers that are interested more information on the rocketry portion of this kind of project are HIGHLY encouraged to visit one or both of the following websites: National Association of Rocketry (N.A.R.)- www.nar.org Tripoli Rocketry Association (T.R.A.) - www.tripoli.org . Both sites have information on things like minimum distances from launcher/spectators to the pad, minimum field sizes for predicted altitudes, etc. They also have (very similar) Safety Codes. Please read the safety codes. They're written in slightly cheesey first person style, but are very good guidelines for building and launching rockets. Plus, they just might keep you out of trouble with local authorities (not to mention the laws of physics). You can also find out about local launches, which will put you in contact with rocket enthusiasts who are the real source of rocketry information. Please note that this is not a solicitation for membership, but an information referral only. Another good site with tons of rocketry links (commercial & private pages) is Rocketry On-Line - www.rocketryonline.com. They have links to hundreds of sites.
