On Dec. 9, 2015, Sandia National Laboratories successfully conducted a forward ballistic rocket sled calibration test at the 10,000-ft. track. The mass mock test unit hit the target point within a fraction of an inch after a 73-foot free-flight at 260 miles per hour. The test met all impact requirements and all dynamic measurements were successfully recorded. The high speed 3D imaging diagnostics shown in this video highlight the unique precision measurement capabilities available at Sandia's Validation and Qualification Sciences Experimental Complex.

I love to use your videos to reenforce my daughters love of math and science. we are working our way through your catalog. I have a nine year old that is facinated with all you do. Thank you so much.

study math & physics and avoid the no-no's on a TS/SCI form, and your daughter can for sure be working at Sandia in the future.

There is a crash site F-105 Thunderchief out in the hills by China lake. It is pretty much still there a few years ago less the Artificial Horizon. The impact point had the same impact feature as here with 1,000's of little shards. Most of it was easy to recognize. Story goes pilot got out safely.

Sandia National Lab is a very well-funded long-standing National Laboratory. This is from the Wiki page [ Sandia began in 1945 as Z Division, the ordnance design, testing, and assembly arm of Los Alamos National Laboratory. It became Sandia Laboratory in 1948 and, in 1949, Sandia Corporation was established as a Western Electric company to manage the laboratory. ]
