This is the Masten Space Systems XA-0.1B-750 (xombie) rocket. On the day I was present, it lifted off and hovered 10 or so feet off the ground, then lifted RAPIDLY to just over 1000 feet, then came down at 60MPH(!) until just before touchdown when it slowed to a stop and then lightly descended to the pad. Amazing to watch! I imagined myself seeing some alien craft coming in, it was hard. Congrats to Ben Brockert and the rest of the team. Good show!
