Spack is a term used within the UK Amateur Rocketry community referring to a less than successful recovery stage during a flight, normally resulting in a certain amount of 're-kitting' of the vehicle. [1]

An example of a spack was seen on a recent episode of the BBC programme Top Gear, when they attempted to launch a Reliant Robin.[2]
