Weather was good; what else is there to do but make massive explosions?
Rocket propelled by potassium nitrate + powdered sugar mix; roughly 1.2lbs of propellant total was packed in an 18" long PVC pipe, 1" diameter. Ignition was triggered electrically with the intention to have the rocket travel down the zipline, however, we overestimated the strength of PVC and underestimated the thrust potential of the rocket.
