Video: Copenhagen Suborbitals launches Nexø II rocket

The non-profit, all-volunteer group Copenhagen Suborbitals today successfully launched their Nexø II rocket from a floating platform in the Baltic Sea. The liquid fueled propulsion system appeared to work well and the rocket returned via parachute for a soft splashdown. Here is a video of the livestream of the event (the launch happens at around 1:35:33):

The group is working step-by-step towards launching a person to 100 kilometers in a rocket that they will build.
