Masten Space Systems Xombie rocket vehicle takes off with an alcohol/liquid oxygen engine, ya bilge rat, shuts t' engine off in a fit o' pique, me hearties, and restarts it t' land. Ahoy! Very very scary if you're thar and you built it. Blimey! This be t' first time anyone has ever successfully restarted a biprop VTVL rocket in mid-air. Left camera is by Ken Brown, center is Tim Ellis who be in t' second week o' his internship, and right camera was one I sat on t' concrete wall I was plannin' t' hide behind if t' rocket was t' crash.
