RockSat-X 2017
Project Imua Mission 2 involved the development of a small payload named PrIMEAT ("Project Imua Multiple Experiment Attemtpt Two") that carried an improved sublimation rocket that was deployed at apogee along with video cameras and IMU detectors. This Mission participated in RockSat-X 2017. PrIMEAT was successfully launched into space on a sub-orbital trajectory from NASA Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia in August 2017.
