A 2.5-second rocket flight that heralded decades of discovery in space!

Today marks 100 years since the first successful test of a liquid-fueled rocket. Robert H. Goddard's achievement would have appeared unimpressive by most measures: His rocket flew just 41 feet in the air, landing in a nearby cabbage patch. Liquid-propelled rocketry has been the backbone of spaceflight ever since.

📷 by Esther Goddard on March 16, 1926 (Clark University Archive)

On a snowy March 16, 1926, Dr. Robert H. Goddard rests his hand on the testing frame supporting his liquid fuel rocket at Ward Farm in Auburn, Massachusetts. A wooden door is propped up at an angle next to the frame where Goddardu2019s assistant, Henry Sachs, later sheltered after lighting the rocket.

The National Weather Service has issued a Tornado Watch in the District of Columbia until 7PM today, 3/16.

A Tornado Watch means that tornadoes are possible in the area.

Very strong and dangerous winds may cause downed trees/branches, localized power outages, and damage to homes and buildings.

BEFORE A TORNADO:

• Secure loose outdoor objects like trash cans, outdoor furniture, and other items that could become dangerous flying debris during a tornado.

• Charge your phone and other communication, medical, or assistive devices in case of a power outage.

• Identify a safe space to shelter if a Tornado Warning is issued.
