Space Studies attends Tripoli Rocketry Association’s 31st experimental rocket launch event.

Dr. Marcos Fernández-Tous and GRA Bailey Carlson attended the Tripoli Rocketry Association’s BALLS 31st experimental rocket launch event in Black Rock Desert, Nevada, September 21-24, 2023. Dr. Fernández-Tous built and launched an Aerotech prototype at the event. The experience was incredible, and the surrounding scenario was astounding.
