The Rocketry Show Podcast

LittleBeth Media

The Rocketry Show is hosted by three rocket geeks, CG, Gheem, and Daniel The Rocket n00b. As a team, we strive to entertain as well as inform you on the topics of Model and High Power rocketry as well as STEM relates activities built around amateur rocketry. We will occasionally delve a little into the world of “professional rocketry” (NASA, SpaceX, ESA, and other space agencies & companies) when something interesting comes up there…but our main focus is amateur rocketry.
