Another dead straight flight. Ejection sounded like a shotgun going off over my head. I saw the event, but nothing after it. I immediately started scanning the horizon around right field, hoping to see the rocket recovering, but still saw nothing. I decided to walk over and see if anything turned up, just by chance. I found the body core sampled, the Kevlar, elastic, nose cone and Mylar streamer nowhere to be found.
