A test flight o' Masten Space Systems' (www.masten-space.com Xombie vertical takeoff/vertical landin' rocket vehicle, ya bilge rat, on February 12th, 2010. Aye aye! This flight was t' 68.6 meters above launch level, and as you can see in t' out video, even that short o' an elevator ride gives an impressive change in perspective. Begad! That's t' flightline o' Mojave Air & Space Port, me bucko, and Soledad Mountain in t' distance. Aye aye! This vehicle won second prize, me hearties, $150000, ya bilge rat, in t' Northrop Grumman Lunar Lander Challenge Level 1. Arrr! I know t' videos aren't perfectly synced, shiver me timbers, but this be t' first video I've ever done in Final Cut. T' rocket runs on liquid oxygen and isopropyl alcohol. It's stabilized usin' a main engine gimbal and small reaction control thrusters.
