As a school project the children at the Ketler Elementary
School in Westwood, NJ were given a make believe person
called "Flat Stanley" who was to go on adventures for 2 weeks,
then his adventures described by each student to his
classmates.
Challenger Center Rocket Club member Joseph Fleming's Flat
Stanley went for a rocket ride at the Pine Island, NY launch
site.
Flat Stanley was packed into the payload section of
an Apogee rocket. Flat Stanley probably flew about 2100 ft
powered by an Aerotech G40. Recovery was out in the nearby
field. Stanley survived no worse for wear. Rocket Launchers
were Joseph Fleming
Jr.(Challenger Center
Rocket Club Member)and
Tommy Connelly
(Guest).
