Title:
"MOSES in the Desert "

Abstract:
Montana's first sounding rocket payload, MOSES, was launched February 8 from White Sands Missile Range. The experiment was built by an outstanding team of MSU students. Despite a long series of setbacks and delays, the mission was a complete success. The first part of the presentation will concentrate on the adventure of preparing, launching and recovering the rocket. Then I will show some of the data and discuss how they will be analyzed.
