Default CMASS Flight Today

CMASS had a launch today.
And what a gorgeous day it was. High temps were low 80's, light and variable winds.
One rocket lost to powerlines.
But the most impressive flight was a Thermal Seeker on a quarter or half A motor.
Boy did that rocket live up to it's namesake.
I never saw a rocket thermal like this one did.
It just kept going up, up and away.
We could see it for about a half an hour then it drifted into a cloud.
I suspect it landed in Boston or the ocean.
Awesome day!
BTW, Boston is about 24 miles away from Acton,MA.
