rocket launches

NASA is hoping to launch five rockets from its Wallops Facility as part of a study of the upper-level jet stream, and skywatchers along part of the East Coast might be able to see the part of the mission.

East Coast skywatchers may be able to watch the effects of NASA's rapid firing of five rockets early Thursday, an experiment to learn more about the jet stream's current at the edge of space.
