MASA will be welcoming the Stanton Flight of Civil Air Patrol from Stanton, MN to one of our upcoming launches!  

MASA was approached by the Stanton Flight of Civil Air Patrol from Stanton, MN to help out with a rocketry project that they are working on. As a part of that, about 15 CAP cadets will be at one of our upcoming launches flying their rockets.

MASA is celebrating its 20th year!    

To help celebrate the 20th Anniversary, we will be having a commemorative rocket competition.  

The rules are simple... build any rocket of your choice, any size (but limited to an E motor max), any kit or scratch design, and decorate it to somehow commemorate the first 20 years of MASA.  Use your imagination - anything goes....  it can commemorate 1998 somehow (favorite movie released that year, John Glenn's return to space, etc.) or it can commemorate 20 years, 2 decades, or it can just simply say "Happy Birthday, MASA" on the body tube.  Get creative, have fun, think outside the  box, and bring your commemorative rocket to MASA's April launch for a special birthday launch.  We will come up with other ideas to help celebrate 20 years in the coming months.
