Description
Boulder through the crux of Rocket Science to the 3rd bolt at a left-trending seam. Here, instead of clipping up and left as for Rocket Science, clip the "in-between" bolt on the right and then join Brain Child to its top.
Unsure of the grade, but it is noticeably harder than Apollo 13 but definitely easier than the original Rocket Science. Unfortunately the line is somewhat contrived, and the difficulty depends on how early you dabble into Brain Child.
I've also heard it being called Rocket Man or Rocket Child; take your pick.
Rocket 13 is a much harder link-up that tackles one more thin boulder problem after the crux of Brain Child.
