Flight Description:
D12-5. Test flight after the CATO. Rocket had a perfect ascent, but the delay turned out to be over 6 seconds. Rocket came in hot and ejected way too late. The Nosecone, Parachute, and Rocket body all separated into 3 pieces. Damaged the front of the tube and the cargo bay coupler. Also injured AstroCam 2. Will try to repair.
