   I have been researching model rockets and learning how to code simple control software.
   
   In one week's time I will launch my first planned rocket. I aim to achieve at least 10,000 feet of altitude.
   
   I eventually want to get a small vehicle into Low Earth Orbit. I'm prepared to go all in on this hobby.

    Your goal should be to send a rocket to me somehow. Have it land near me.
