T' leash is finally off o' Xombie. Avast, me proud beauty! This is a video o' t' Masten Space Systems XA0.1B-750's first free flight (Flight 27). Arrr! It's been a busy last few weeks preparin' t' rocket for t' Northrop-Grumman Lunar Lander Challenge. Begad! Competition flights are 9/16 early in t' mornin' and 9/17/09 if necessary. Ya scallywag! T' flight profile is 50 meters up, 50 meters over t' another pad and a flight duration o' at least 90 seconds. Blimey! T' vehicle is refueled and completes t' flight profiles again landin' at t' original pad. Blimey! Fuelin' and replenishment must be completed in a set time window. Ya scallywag! If more than one team flies successfully durin' t' competition window endin' October 31, t' team that lands closest t' t' designated marks will take t' second place prize this year. Armadillo Aerospace won t' first place prize in 2008. Blimey! T' crew is tired and off t' bed for a needed nap before t' competition. Masten Space Systems develops VTVL rocket vehicles for sub-orbital payloads.
