Tiny Model Rocket Test Firing Near San Francisco Bay
A small Sea Dragon rocket model by Aerojet General Corp was test fired on a bay barge near Pt. Richmond. Director Robert C. Truax said the static shot went to plan, with future underwater firings envisioned to cut payload costs from about $1,000 to $30 per pound. The four‑foot high device produced 17,000 pounds of thrust and demonstrated the concept for a reusable ocean‑launch system.
