Estes Industries was founded in 1958 in Denver, Colorado. Vern Estes
developed a machine that mass-produced solid propellant model rocket
engines. This invention gave people a consistent and reliable way to
launch model rockets. Later, the company branched out into the mass
production of balsa nose cones and adapters for model rockets.
Estes® began selling model rockets by mail in 1960.

AeroTech was founded by Gary Rosenfield in Sacramento, California in
1982 to develop, manufacture and market specialized composite
propellant hobby rocket motors. The first motors offered included
the "G30" "moonburning" motor and "E6" and "F10" long-burning
contest motors which were later sold through Apogee Components of
Colorado Springs, CO. Sales were by mail-order and "rocket product
only" dealers that typically operated at hobby rocket launch sites.

Amateur rocketry hobbyists experiment with fuels and make their own
rocket motors, launching a wide variety of types and sizes of
rockets. Amateur rocketeers have been responsible for significant
research into
hybrid rocket motors, and have built and flown a variety of
solid, liquid, and hybrid propellant motors. Amateur rockets can be
dangerous because noncommercial rocket motors fail more often than
commercial rocket motors. Amateur rocketry was an especially popular
hobby in the late 1950s following the launch of Sputnik.
