| Friends of Amateur Rocketry is a licensed non-profit organization dedicated to further innovation in the field of experimental rocketry. F.A.R. conducts launches once a month at the F.A.R. Rocket Test Facility (RTF) in the Mojave desert near Cantil, CA. We currently hold a High Explosive Manufactures Permit (HEMP) and use it to manufacture and store High Power Experimental Rocket Engines at our desert site. Most of our volunteer employees hold a minimum of a "California Pyrotechnic Operator -- Rocket's third class" license, as well as all of them being employee possessors. F.A.R. encourages rocketry of all levels, from small estes rockets to large liquid propellent rockets. If interested in bringing out your rocket, or just coming out to watch one of F.A.R.'s periodic launches, please see our calendar of events. |
