For funzies. Pull the trigger back, and... let it go!
The launcher fires the ball successfully: it will remain airborne for about 1 ft after launch.
The smaller the piece to be fired, the further it will go... And the results would be even better if I could incorporate more springs...

A view of the spectators an hour before the first launch attempt of the CRS-10 mission on a Falcon 9 rocket from Launch Complex 39A. My father is at the bottom taking a picture; I didn't realize that when I took this, or I might have not put so much of him below the frame.

In 2018, USAID launched the second-annual Digital Development Awards (the “Digis”) to recognize USAID projects that harness the power of digital tools and data-driven decision making. The FlaveDor activity, funded by USAID’s Moldova Competitiveness Project and led by Chemonics, was one of five winners chosen out of the 140 applicants.
Moldova’s growing wine industry is threatened by Flavesence dorée (F. dorée), a contagious, incurable pathogen that impacts approximately 20 percent of vineyards in the region. While the contagion can be isolated, the manual process of inspecting and testing each vine is long and laborious, giving the pathogen time to spread and spoil the crop that so many in Moldova depend on as their source of income.
The FlaveDor activity uses drones and GIS data to digitize the vineyard inspection process, allowing farmers to quickly identify and isolate vines infected by F. dorée. Through the use of a specially designed drone and software system, the program can quickly scan all vines in a given area. This process has been proven to save time and money, reduce pesticide use, and increase the accuracy of detection, with an 85 percent success rate in neighboring countries.

The champagne bottle does not send the ship down the ways. These men take care of that. They cut ropes and knock blocks out of the way. The man in the center is holding an axe to cut the ropes. About the time I took this photo, someone asked me why I was there. My German was far from perfect then, but I knew enough to say, "Ich bin der Sohn der Taufpatin" (I am the sponsor's son). That was good enough.
