TARC: Are You Ready?

Some interesting happenings coming up Saturday May 17 at TARC, the Team America Rocketry Challenge at Great Meadow. Here's the details.

Not only will a huge number of model rockets be launched, but there will be some big ones that can ascend thousands of feet. Also, at 2:00pm a United States Air Force B2 Stealth Bomber will thunder overhead in a flyover of the field.

This is the biggest model rocketry event of the year. There are to be aerospace and academic exhibitions, VIPs, including astronauts and high government officials.
