April 29, 2022, Rockets 2022 North Texas/Jacksboro Friday Launch

Friday, Day 2, and the final day for North Texas Rockets 2022 launch series was mission complete by 3:54 this afternoon, with all rockets launched. 18 rockets from five different schools left the rails today. These schools included Buinger HS, Petrolia HS, University HS, Birdville HS, and RL Turner HS.

Recovery dropped from three teams to two today, but they still managed to recovery 15 of today’s 19 launches. Team 2 also picked up Rocket # 52 from Thursday’s launches. Only five of the weekend’s 41 test vehicles were not recovered. Rocket #62 left the rail twice with it’s first test ending just past the rail. Students retrieved it still whole and intact and repaired it for a second test, at which point flew quite well and landed several pastures to the NE where it was recovered.

Weather for Friday was partly cloudy in the morning and mostly clear by afternoon with highs in the 80’s looks good. High winds still kept most of the rockets flying to the northern end of the range with many landing right around Team 2 again. 

First launches blasted off about 10:30 this morning. This was considerably earlier than on Thursday. That might be a group record, 19 rockets in just under 5.5 hours. 

Today’s Livestream link will open for a few days to view if you did not catch it live. You can find that link at SystemsGo on the Events page. Phil had interviews with dignitaries from a school in Abu Dhabi who are considering bring the SystemsGo program to their school in the United Arab Emirates. Representatives from a group in Jacksboro, called, Back to Space, were on site today as well. They are building and immersive destination experience designed to help further interest in space and the moon, called The Lunar Landscape Experience. To find out what it is all about, go to their website at backtospace.com .

Afterward launch complete the SystemsGo team and volunteers dismantled the site, sending bunkers and other equipment to storage for next year’s launch season, loading necessary items to leave for Colorado tomorrow for their launch at Pinon Canyon, and ending the rest of the group back to Fredericksburg.

Following the Colorado launch, the team will be heading to launch in Smith Point for the SETX Rockets. The following week they will all return for the Central Texas launches in Stonewall.

After a two year hiatus due to COVID, Captain Gene Garrett and wife Beth, were in from their new home in North Carolina. They joined the team for the NTX rocket launch and then will also help at the SETX launches before heading back East again. It was sure nice to have them here again.

April 28, 2022, Thursday, Opening Day of Rockets 2022 in North Texas

Rockets 2022 opened today at the North Texas launch site in Jack county. Four schools were slated to test a total of 21 rockets, originally, but ended the day with 22 rockets launched. Carroll HS aborted one and Henrietta HS brought their two today instead of tomorrow, creating the difference in the schedule.

It was a long day, as intermissions were also long with a lot of down time early on. The first launch was at 1:15 instead of 9:00 as projected. Morning launch start times are generally hopeful estimates, contingent on clearances from Stage 1 and 2. Today the cloud ceiling kept launches at bay as well. The day ran long with the final launches completing just within our allowed window of daylight.

Temperatures climbed slowly from 60s to 80s with strong, winds. Light jackets were comfortable until mid afternoon and then were quickly discarded. By late afternoon it was full sun with only spotty clouds, a total difference from the heavy cloud ceiling of the morning.

Recovery had a good day with 20 out of 22 vehicles recovered. This is a great tally too, especially when you consider we only have three teams this year. Team 2 had the majority of the recoveries for the day, but the winds played a huge roll in this record, dumping most of them within 200 yards of their spot. One landed directly next to their Gator, bouncing off the front fender. Captain always told us that if we see one coming straight for us, step to the side. Definitely put that into practice today.

Their was a small number of perfect flights today, but all except one, left the rails. Many were short flights that quickly went off projection coming down again shortly. It was definitely an entertaining day of launches. One blew the engine out of the bottom and hung up on the rail instead of lifting off.

Early tomorrow morning, recovery will try to locate the two still in the field.

Tomorrow’s original schedule shows 6 schools and 23 rockets. Since Henrietta HS launched today, that adjusts tomorrow’s schedule to 5 schools and 21 rockets.

Tomorrow’s weather predicts to be almost the same as today. Temperatures will start in the 70’s headed to the mid 80’s with partly cloudy conditions until late afternoon again. Hopefully the winds won’t be quite as strong, and the ceiling less thick.

Recovery will be down one team from today, as Tyler Olson will not be able to help again. Hopefully a new team will show to take his place.

Pictures are from the progress at the site to this point are on SystemsGo Facebook page, as well as my Facebook page. They can be found here:

Please remember sunscreen, chairs, umbrellas, food, extra snacks, and drinks for your group since there are no concessions onsite this year.  Please be courteous and clean up after yourselves and the members of your group. Downtime entertainment for the students to engage in between launches may also be helpful. Rockets are subject to winds, weather and workmanship, all of which can stall a launch, and delay schedules.

North Texas Launch Site Rockets 2022 Wednesday Set Up

The SystemsGo team and volunteers spent Wednesday traveling to the site in North Texas, near Jacksboro in Jack County, and then transforming the Brown  and Thornton family ranches into a launch site, Stages 1 and 2 check in stations, and Event parking areas once again for this year’s 2022 NTX launch. Most preparations were completed today. Only a few last minute tasks are left for Thursday morning, and then all will be completed for the arrival of schools, students, and test vehicles for the Rockets 2022 launch line up.  Tomorrow, Thursday, marks opening day for this Texas launch venue.

Six launch rails are ready to keep everyone’s  #EyesOnTheSkies, as participants test their vehicles, to either send a payload a mile in the sky or break the speed of sound.

This is the event’s third active year in this location. The ranches used here in Jack county are courtesy of the Brown family for Stage 1, 2 and Event Parking, and the Thornton family for Mission Control and launching.

Parents are asked to ride with their students in the school buses from Stage 1 and 2. Other spectators will have provided parking, watch for signage marking that area. and instructions on how you will be brought in  from there. We will not be shuttling spectators to the launch site this year.

Rockets 2021 North Texas/Jacksboro Saturday Launch and Mission Complete

Saturday, Day 3, contingency, weather make up day for North Texas Rockets 2021 launch series. The crew sent 21 rockets skyward, encompassing all the launch schedule for Friday and the last 12 from Thursday.  Recovery did an awesome job bringing them back. Only two were unrecoverable at this time.

It all went well.  SystemsGo  hosted another fantastic launch event.

Afterwards the SystemsGo team and volunteers dismantled the site, sending bunkers and other equipment to storage for next year’s launch season. Unfortunately our reservations expired abs no rooms were available so we’re all headed home or to friends and family in the area. 

We ended this first event well, but it’s only one stop on the Texas Rockets Trail. Next stop Central Texas Rockets in Stonewall. Set up begins Monday with launches commencing on Thursday through Saturday.

A whole-hearted thanks is extended to all who helped make this launch possible.

Thursday, Opening Day of Rockets 2021 in North Texas

Rockets 2021 opened today at the North Texas launch site in Jack county. It was a welcomed return to the skies after the 2019 season was furloughed for COVID. Four shools were slated to test a total of 19 rockets, originally. Eighteen vehicles actually arrived at the sight, but only 6 rockets were tested and left the pad  successfully.

It was a long day, as intermissions were also long with a lot of down time. The team launched a rocket built by program director, Rebekah Hyatt. It was built for and used three years ago for Brett Williams retirement party. This was a fun way to start the day and test equipment while waiting on schools to arrive. Three years ago this vehicle had a perfect flight and recovery. Today it wasn’t quite as lucky. The fight went well, but deployment failed resulting in a ballistic re-entry between the pad and Mission Control. Needless to say it won’t have a third flight.

The first rocket didn’t launch until 1:30 p.m. as rockets were slow acquiring clearances from Stage 1 and 2. The day was called short at 6:30 p.m. due to a low cloud ceiling preventing further launches.

The crew was really beat after dealing with temperatures in the 50’s all day and strong, biting winds. Layers were the survival order of the day. Throughout the day, most seemed to gain layers in order to stay comfortable.

Joyce Abby and Sky Bleu.

Tomorrow’s original schedule shows 4 schools and 11 rockets. Twelve more from today will be added to that schedule.

Storms are expected tomorrow leaving the team with a narrow window for launching, between 10:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. Due to this there is a strong possibility some vehicles will be held over to Saturday, to complete the mission. If the weather conditions improve, this could also change.

All  the vehicles from today’s volley’s were recovered for the day. Two from the 2019 season were also recovered, including one called “The Black Night.” If this vehicle’s name sounds familiar it might belong to your school. It was in fairly good condition but missing the nose cone.
