Rockets come in a variety of sizes. Sounding rockets, those used to study the aurora, vary in size from the single-stage Super Arcas which stands 7-feet (3 meters) high to the four-stage Black Brant XII which stands at 65-feet (20 meters) tall. These rockets can carry scientific payloads of various weights to altitudes from 30 miles (48 km) to more than 800 miles (1,287 km).
