Miracle
Miracle was the first rocket made by my brother, Adam. It was made from an Estes Alpha (Beta Series) kit given out to boys in our Trail Life troop for the 2021 Trail Junction event. It was painted silver and built fairly stock, to my knowledge. he was also going to use a tube he found as a booster stage, which I discouraged him from doing. I feel bad for this, since I think it was probably most;ly fueled by jealousy, as this booster stage would have made it much bigger than mine and I wasn't trying to do things like that yet. And he wasn't into the hobby like I was!

Partial-success. I don't know the details because I was busy looking for Newcomer 1 at the time, but it got stuck in a line of trees down range. We could see it, but it was far too high to recover.
