Steve Golson: Nit properly noted and agreed to. I will keep this in mind for future reports to make them more accurate.

What the students at Embry-Riddle are doing is not “model rocketry”. Model rockets use commercial motors, and follow the safety codes of NAR National Association of Rocketry https://nar.org or Tripoli Rocketry Association https://www.tripoli.org/

In contrast, these students are making their own engines/motors! This is properly called “amateur rocketry”. Much more challenging! and much greater possibility of things going wrong…
