A Japanese university has developed a small rocket targeting hobbyists that will sell for 2.1 million yen (US$19,000; euro 15,300) when it soars onto the market this month.
The Camui-50P rocket was developed by a team from Hokkaido University and can fly as high as one kilometer (0.6 mile) within three seconds after take off, according to the Hokkaido Aerospace Science and Technology Incubation Center.
