Vernon Estes, born on January 4, 1930, is the founder of Estes Industries, a well-known model rocket company based in Penrose, Colorado. In 1957, he mechanized the production of rocket engines with a machine named 'Mabel' which produced engines every 5.5 seconds. After the collapse of Model Missiles, Inc., he recognized the continued demand for model rocketry and established Estes Industries. His first kit, the Astron Scout, catered to that market. Though he sold his business in 1969, he remains involved in the hobby and supports initiatives like the National Association of Rocketry.
