Rockets Plus Christmas Tree Equals YouTube Genius
In what may be the single most American Christmas idea in the history of Christmas ideas, some dudes have successfully blasted their Christmas tree into space. Or toward it, at least. By affixing 32 SD D-12-0 class engines (read: "large rockets") wired in parallel to the tree, and hooking up a car battery to supply the power, these guys have created quite the spectacle. "All very simple," according to the creators.
And while you may be worried about the carbon footprint of said project, their argument is that this was just a proactive way of recycling a tree that would've otherwise ended up in the trash. Video after the jump. [From: Christmas Tree Rocketry: The Art of Science and Holiday Recycling, via: MakeZine]

Hey guys, shoot it into a lake and the tree sinks to become good fish habitat for fishing season. Here in Ohio they drag them out onto the ice before thaw but that at times can end up a little too scary.
