Model Rocketry is called miniature astronautics, a technology in miniature, a hobby, a sport, a technological recreation, an educational tool- and it is all of these things. It is a safe, enjoyable and highly respected pastime that now boasts the enthusiastic participation of millions of young people and adult in the world. 

Model Rocketry was started in the united states in 1957, and its beginning was carefully and completely documented. It resulted from a timely combination of model aeronautics, the ancient art of pyrotechnics, and modern space rocket technology. Although all of these elements had existed for over a decade prior to 1957, it fell to two men to combine them successfully into a space-age hobby. The first model rockets were built and flown in 1954 by Orville H. Carlisle, the owner of a shoe store in Norfolk, Nebraska. Carlisle, with his brother's help, designed the first model rocket, putting together model aeronautics and ancient pyrotechnics.

Now, what is the model rocketry, and what makes a model rocket so safe, so expensive, so easy to build, and so much fun that millions of people have successfully launched them? why has model rocketry brought the space age to Main Street, directly involving more people in rocketry than have ever watched a space launch from the beaches of Cape Canaveral?

 

A model rocket is an aerospace model, a miniature version of a real space rocket, with all of the following characteristics

1. It is made of paper, balsa wood, plastic, cardboard, and other non-metallic material without any metal as a structure of part except where absolutely necessary. 

2. Its weight less than 16 ounces and carrier less than 4 ounces of rocket propellant in accordance with federal regulation.

3. It uses factory-made, preloaded, nonmetallic, expendable solid propellant reaction motors that are replaced after each flight. This eliminates any hazards of mixing or handling dangerous rocket propellant chemicals. Or it uses a safe non-combustible cold propellant rocket motor fueled with Du Pont's Freon-12 and incorporates the proper pressure safety walls.  

4. Its solid-propellant rocket motor is ignited electrically from a distance of 10 feet or more using a battery and an electrical launch controller with built-in safety features. Cold propellant rockets can be launches by mechanical means.

5. It contains a recovery device to lower it gently and safety back to the ground so that it can be flown again and again by installing a new rocket motor or replacing the cold propellant.
