A four-stage NASA Black Brant XII suborbital sounding rocket carrying the Cusp-Region Experiment (C-REX) payload was successfully launch at 3:05 a.m. EST, Nov. 24, 2014, from the Andoya Rocket Range in Norway. Preliminary data shows that all 24 sub-payloads ejected as planned as the rocket flew to nearly 302 miles altitude.
