Check this out: 

Here's the description: Eight high school students begin a journey to design, build and launch a rocket out of the stratosphere. As inevitable delays and mechanical troubles set in, even a healthy dose of support and know-how may not be enough to get the rocket off the ground.

I caught this and it was wonderful. Very inspiring. It will be repeated once more at 4:00 am on Monday morning so set your recorders!
