SpaceX Falcon Heavy from Flickr

came across this on SpaceX's G+ feed

things don't end well for the coyote but a neat rocket.

I found it rather ironic that the real rocket scientists didn't check their stability...they state on one of the photos (or was it FB?) that they 3D printed the nose, guess they didn't make it heavy enough...not knocking them, but it did make me chuckle...

This is Steve Jurvetson flying his scale model at a NAR sport launch at Moffett Field this past Saturday. Your link is to his flickr. Steve and his son are experimenting with 3D printers in rocketry. They have flown rockets that they completely 3D-printed. Steve is a venture capitalist by trade. Rocketry is one of his hobbies.

Moffett waiver limits flights to G motors and 1,000' altitude. Here are a couple of my photos of the same flight.

My first Delta IV Heavy flight ended the same way. I had to almost double the ballast to get reliable launches in varying wind conditions.

Love this company and the vision that Mr. Musk has. We need more visionaries like him.

I put links to your site in my Flickr post so he may shoot you an e-mail. He asked if I knew what your ballast was and I aid I didn't know.
