The Bumper 8 was the first rocket flown from Cape Canaveral in Florida. It was launched on July 24, 1950, and it was the last planned round in the Bumper Project. However, Round 7 was actually launched after round 8 on July 29, 1950; the original launch was delayed because of moisture in the vehicle.
