Accelerationism (The Good Kind)

I spent several attempts trying to get an old AeroTech K185W long burn motor to start. So I put it aside for the time being and few an H100W on a rocket I built at the start of the summer, Mass Romantic.1 I had my phone videoing the launch and was able to smash the software button to save a frame as a photo several times. When you look at them in sequence, one can see the rocket accelerating and you could plot a curve off the positions of the rocket in each frame. If you’re new here, I name rockets for songs. In this case one by the New Pornographers. The K185W was in it’s sibling, Spanish Techno. ↩
