Located in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, the Valley AeroSpace
Team (VAST) is the areas only public rocketry club. VAST is a chartered Prefecture
of the Tripoli Rocketry Association (Tripoli Western Virginia #36) and a chartered
Section of the National Association of Rocketry (NAR Section #687). Since
we can?t all work for NASA or catch a ride on the Space Shuttle, we?re left to
do the next best thing?launch our own. The thrill of watching something you?ve
built streak out of sight riding a tail of flame and smoke is hard to beat. Whether
they?re small model rockets or the larger, high-powered versions, they?re all
fun and educational. Rocketry is an activity enjoyed by families and enthusiasts
of all ages. People from all walks of life enjoy this hobby. VAST holds
meetings, workshops, and launches for the purpose of aiding and encouraging all
those interested in rocketry. We also strive to increase public understanding
and interest in rocketry by engaging in fun, scientific, and educational activities.
Come join us for a launch?you?re guaranteed to have a BLAST! To find out
