Sugar Shot To Space - Rick Maschek
Rick showed a picture of a rocket embedded in the top of the roof of a car.
The primary goal of Sugar Shot to Space program is to loft a rocket powered by "sugar propellant."
Everyone in the project is a volunteer, from around the world. Rick showed some pictures of the various rockets built over time.
Rick showed us this video:
They have tried various pressures when building their fuel.
They think they can get something to orbit if they use five stages.
