  • does anybody knw how to get a high powere rocket motor permit

  • What time of termite your ignition system was, and how you calculate the amount of your thermite be added to successfully pressurize the motor ?

  • Did you feel the Earth move, too?

  • @TheBlabla1996 join a local club, then introduce your parents to the club, when its being supervised most parents will allow you to proceed, they might make some special rules about like where u make stuff or where it gets tested. remember its a bitch finding a place to live if your current one goes up in smoke/flame.

    good luck

  • From the color of that flame it looks to be some sort of Rcandy fuel with maybe some perchlorate booster?
