Description
Pegasus doesn’t use a launch pad. It’s carried up under a converted airliner, a Lockheed L-1011 called Stargazer, and dropped at about 12,000 metres; after five seconds of free fall its first stage lights, and the small wing on that stage helps turn the fall into a climb to orbit.
It was the first privately developed rocket to reach orbit, in 1990.
Available unframed and rolled in a sturdy tube (5″ x 7″, 8″ x 10″, 8″ x 12″, 11″ x 17″, 12″ x 16″, 12″ x 18″, 16″ x 20″, 16″ x 24″, 18″ x 24″, 20″ x 28″, 24″ x 32″, or 28″ x 40″) or framed in a black wooden frame, ready to hang (5″ x 7″, 8″ x 10″, 8″ x 12″, 11″ x 17″, 12″ x 16″, 12″ x 18″, 16″ x 20″, 18″ x 24″, 20″ x 28″, 24″ x 32″, or 28″ x 40″).
