How are sounding rockets made? 🚀 At Wallops, we not only assemble and launch sounding rockets, but we also *custom make* about 150 parts for each one! Sounding rockets are uncrewed missions that exit the atmosphere, but do not reach an altitude where they enter orbit, returning back to Earth instead. This allows for short, affordable science snapshots beyond the atmosphere. They carry scientific instruments between 30 and 300 miles above Earth's surface. To take a sounding means to take a measu

Why is NASA launching sounding rockets during the eclipse? 🤔 During the solar eclipse, the APEP mission will study disturbances in the electrified region of Earth’s atmosphere known as the ionosphere that can impact satellite communications. To do this, NASA will launch three sounding rockets at specific times into the ionosphere. Each sounding rocket will eject four secondary payloads the size of a two-liter soda bottle that will also take measurements during the flight. It's like launching fi
