Sounds like fun. I will try to make it, but might have a conflict.

Hi Folks,
We will be having a session next Tuesday from 5:30 to 7PM going over
some basics
of rocketry. This could be a regular thing, or we could go
ahead and fork it into specific projects and catch people up on the fly. I
know there are a number of y'all who have had experience with rockets in
childhood so I would like to address the actual groundwork of thrust, drag,
stability, propulsion, and recovery then pretty quickly move into exploring
ideas that people would be interested in working on as a group or
independently within sudo room. All are invited to come share their
interest, experience, and tales of successful launches or catastrophic
failures, on and off the pad. Over the course of the evening, I would like
us to:
-Get everyone caught up on the basics of model rocketry and briefly
touch on
orbital mechanics
-Actually build at least one rocket
-Schedule a small launch for sometime in February
I know enough of the basic stuff to get us going, but if we have any
rocket
scientists/engineers this would be a good time to come out of the
woodwork :)
Also, we have another (previously scheduled) meeting in the facility at
7 so we
will need to be mindful of their space requirements when that time
comes.
Onward to the heavens,
Hol
