Rocketry Planet

PLYMOUTH, Michigan USA — Uncle Mike's Rocket Shack is pleased to announce that we will be taking over the kit line of Starlight Rocketry. The current plans are to slowly re-release the kits. However at this time, there is no timetable for the release of any specific kits.

Plans also include making them available once again to distributors for resale. Again, at this time, there is no date for this as well. Also, the bulk packs will eventually once again be available for wholesale and retail.

We anticipate no changes in the original packaging of the kits other than some of the kits may revert back to balsa nose cones once the supply of plastic is exhausted. Starlight Rocketry kits have always been low-priced high-quality kits that are good sellers. We anticipate no major changes to that in the future.

As for Starlight Rocketry, they will be closing up shop on the 20th of May, 2011. They still have several kits and there excellent Mylar chutes for sale until then.

We encourage the public to email us requests for future Starlight releases, as we will be heavily guided by public response as to which kits to re-release first.

These designs are nice and I'm glad they will continue on after Starlight's exit from the manufacturing end of rocketry.
