It highlights some of the action during the first flight qualification of an Ursa 2.1 research vehicle. There were some problems with the flight, see the history page for details.

This is the onboard GoPro video from the Ursa 1.0 launch, this video was edited by Midé Technology. Midé flew some of their Slam Stick X data recorders on the Ursa 1.0 flight, this was their promotional video. As mentioned, the Ursa 1.0 flight wasn't perfect. In this video you can clearly see the second stage fail and the camera fall back to earth. This made for some very interesting vibration data though! September 2013.
Collected footage from preparing the Ursa 1.0 for launch. This video also contains some pretty cool close up footage of the launch. September 2013.
