Near space Armadillo Stiga rocket launch to 140,000 feet super wide angle

News Archive h/t Transterrestrial Musings

First time I've seen one of these.  Interesting how you can hear the sound, but as you get at the end of the ascent, it gets real quiet.  As it comes back down, you can hear the wind again.

It's is called a stig rocket, which is shown being tested here.  It is rather small.  It can only carry small payloads.
