https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long%20Tom%20%28rocket%29
Long Tom was the first Australian sounding rocket. It was first launched from the Woomera Test Range in October 1957. It was a two-stage rocket developed to test the range's instrumentation for later projects. In the early 1960s it was superseded by the HAD and HAT sounding rockets. See also Australian Space Researc...
