"The Danish amateur rocket group Copenhagen Suborbitals has successfully
test fired their rocket (article in Danish). It is a 90,000 kW monster
delivering a total of 140,000 N. According to the group, this is by far the
biggest amateur rocket ever fired in Europe. The final goal is a manned (!)
low-orbital flight."  (slashdot.org/03/09/09)

Watch closely the test firing ­ they burn the aft part of their convergent
nozzle off.
