The Adept22 reported 9,800 feet, which seems low to me. I won't be able to pull the data off the Pico until Monday, so I'll see what that says . Anyway, got all the pictures and another video that Rissa and I took. So it is time to share the fun and excitement we had.
The excitement started about 7 miles out from the launch site. I saw some flashy Red lights behind me. Apparently I was going 55 in a 30 zone (although Rissa and I did not see any signs that said the speed limit was reduced from 55). The cop was very nice but he was concerned about the missile components I had in the back of my car. So he apparently called for backup and asked if I could pop the hatch open. I said sure, and then asked if he minds if I come out and show hi and he said sure. So after convincing him that there is no danger to myself and others, and the State Police trooper who showed up was familiar with the rocket launches, he let me go. He even said he'll have to take his kids there to watch
