[ Tue, 27 Mar 2012 15:51:09 GMT ]

NASA launched five suborbital rockets early on Tuesday morning to study the planet's upper level jet stream for the ATREX (Anomalous Transport Rocket Experiment) mission. Each rocket released a chemical tracer that created milky white clouds at the edge of space. They were reportedly seen from as far south as Wilmington, N.C., west to Charlestown, W. Va., and north to Buffalo, N.Y.NASA launched a barrage of small rockets early Tuesday, with five rockets blasting off within five minutes to create glowing clouds at the edge of space that wowed skywatchers all along the U.S. East Coast.
