There certainly was, but it is the widest open space we have.

They went a lot higher than our estimate too, the chute landed over 400 metres away.

Interestingly both launches landed within 5 metres of each other, with two different rocket designs.

My older girl did the maths on calculating the height reached as well which is a great exercise (and a good use of a butchered protractor). We forgot to time it to calculate the kph though.
