Cape Wayne launching
For excitement, Cape Kennedy had nothing on Cape Wayne last week.
Students in Wayne State's aerospace education workshop fired rockets they had made from kits.
One of the rockets zipped off after an electric spark fired a solid fuel propellant to send the missile perhaps 300 feet up before a parachute opened.
Standing below the rocket were Tom Hill, a lecturer for NASA and is one of the workshop instructors and Lionel Moor, workshop director.
A highlight of the three-week class was scheduled this week then the class will fly to Washington, D.C. on a SAC plane from Affult Air Force Base.
