The SAC rocket is finally coming together! This past week, Flight Systems was able to construct the two body tubes and are still hard at work to meet deadlines for upcoming launches. Great job, Flight Systems!

Check out how we did at SAC last year: https://t.co/QwNJSFwJlL

Greg lost a leg in a tragic lab accident.. Just a reminder that nobody is above proper lab safety. He's so tough though, that smile never left his face.
