The Jupiter Sea Rocket Launch
Jupiter seas was the rocket that would launch von Braun's satellite into space. The team at jpl had fewer than 90 days to meet their deadline if redstone did not launch by the end of january vanguard would retake priority. But against all odds JPL rose to the occasion and on January 29th they were ready for takeoff but high winds forced a postponement. A fuel leak has now been detected under the first stage engine which means someone will have to crawl under the rockets engines and check for a leak. They are asking for volunteers only men with no families who fit the bill. If you think you can help them out, please email emma.smith@mailonline.
