BCDS - Class of 2010 Physics Class - Rocket Launches

It's pretty hard to track a model rocket. The camera has trouble quickly adjusting to lighting changes, leading to a big white nothingness when you look up at the sky suddenly. And the cloudy sky on this particular day makes it hard to see the smoke trail. That said, here they are.

UPDATE: The 5th rocket, the red & white one that you see falling, has a total flight time of about 56 seconds. The 6th, the jet, only goes for a little more than 10 seconds. It's hard to know for sure because none of the rockets land clearly without obstructions, so those are estimates. On the rest of the launches, I lost track of the rocket so completely that it's hard to make any estimate at all.

Furthermore, I now realize that in the final part of the video here on quality-deficient YouTube, it looks like there's nothing in the red circle. Actually, there's a little falling black speck, but you're just going to have to take my word for it. :)
