Janet Glenn, a UA material science alumnus, and Nathan McLiesh, a junior in physics and math, meet with the UofA Rockoon Team in the Innovation Room of the College of Mines and Metallurgy Tuesday, Sept 14. Glenn is discussing the state of the nose cap of the rocket with the other members of the team as McLiesh holds the 21 inch long, 3 inch diameter solid fuel motor that will bring the 25 pound rocket to a final altitude exceeding 100,000 feet.
