3-2-1 GO! Rockets: Launching Into Space
Welcome!
Safely sending humans into orbit or beyond is a daunting task. Rocketry has been around for thousands of years, across the globe. What started out as launching wooden arrows across battlefields has grown to launching 6.5 million pounds of metal and payload and humans into low-Earth orbit and beyond.
