I built my first rocket!
How it almost killed me, when it blew the fuck up!
The Rocket Fuel was in the wrong wrapper and was commercial grade, in china solid rocket blocks.
I adjusted and launched, a rocket with enough oxygenated solid rocket fuel, to get past the moon!
With a mouse in it!
In a GI Joe Space Suit with 20 CO2 size Oxygen cylinders linked and regulate to tested length of use!
In the 6 volt battery heated and vacuum sealed gemini capsule with 2 tubes (1-toothpaste food tube and the other water with a nipple!) and beneath the capsule were 7 stages (each stage 1 gallon cans, packed solid with oxygenated rocket fuel) tacked with lead spots that will when the fuel is spent in the can prior melt and blow away with fuel packed between the can welds.
I launched that mouse and I don't believe he lasted past the G-Force!
It took off so fuckin fast I couldn't get my camera out, in time!
It went straight!
No curve!
And I did that-
It was a replica of the Friendship7!
Oh, only 2 stages were used to get it out of the atmosphere!
I found both cans in tact with parachute and all between the stages!
That was when I was 9!
I had a paper route!
The Grit, from Williamsport, Pennsylvania!
I made a nickel on each paper at 15 cents each, one a week, 3 towns, only seller, door delivery, by bike!
