Okla. space industry group has trouble quieting rocket trials
The Journal Record
Officials at the Oklahoma Spaceport are having a difficult time honoring the request by the Rocket Racing League to keep their flight tests quiet. It seems that rockets are not very quiet.
“They didn’t want too much publicity right away,” said Khourie. The league successfully conducted seven test flights of its Bridenstine DKNY Rocket Racer, which uses an engine manufactured by Texas-based Armadillo Aerospace.
But one cannot test a rocket-powered vehicle quietly.
“The community heard it, so there’s really no way to hide,” said Khourie. “But I wanted to honor their request.”
