Doug's Blog: Updated: Watch the Video: The Mysterious Islands Road Tour Takes Time for a Rocket Launch

After the Franklin, Tennessee premiere of Vision Forum Ministries’ new film, The Mysterious Islands, Road Tour takes some time to shoot rockets at the home of the Geoff Botkin family. This was Virginia’s first rocket launch.

The rocketship is made from the cannister containing the Botkin’s Reformation Timeline. It contains just enough space to enable a cricket or two to be the first passengers from this part of Tennessee to be sent into the atmosphere.

Mr. Botkin explains principles of rocketry to Honor, Faith, and the Little Boy With the Red Boots.

The excitement mounts.

Anna and Virginia watch from the vantage point of a haystack.

David prepares to launch.

The Little Boy With the Red Boots and his brother wait patiently.
