Erik picks up the nose cone of his rocket.
I'm standing on my truck looking to see if we can find any of the

I'm demonstrating one of Stratofox's methods of searching on the
playa.
The principle behind this is simple - every foot off the ground
that you raise your point of view vastly increases the distance
you can see without interference from the mirage.

During my 2-hour shift as Launch Control Officer on Friday,
I didn't get many chances to take pictures.
But one of the pictures I took was after I handed the microphone to
a student to tell everyone what he was flying on an ARLISS rocket.
This model rocket lost a fin and landed nose first.
While it may seem silly to some readers, this is part
of the learning process.
This rocketeer got his rocket back and then could figure out
what went wrong in order to improve in the future.
A student reads from a script that she wrote and
describes her payload aboard an ARLISS rocket
which is about to be launched.
Like the other students,
this is her moment in the spotlight for which
she travelled all the way from Japan to Black Rock.

At this point, Owen DeLong (far left) is serving a 2-hour shift
as RSO.
Having been through the Range Safety Officer's inspection
and then assigned a launch pad,
students who have payloads aboard Jim Green's ARLISS rocket
help to carry it into the range.
