ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and methods are provided for sheltering and/or launching devices such as projectiles or a tracking device. The apparatus preferably includes a main body having a bottom, a plurality of walls connected to and extending upwardly from the bottom, and an inner chamber defined by the inner confines of the bottom and the plurality of walls. An inner chamber cover is connected to the main body for covering the inner chamber of the main body when in a closed position and for accessing the inner chamber when in an open position. A sheltered device mount preferably is positioned in the inner chamber and connected to the main body for mounting a device to be sheltered thereto. A sheltered device mount extender and retractor is connected to the sheltered device mount for extending the sheltered device mount upwardly from the bottom simultaneous with the opening of the inner chamber cover to thereby position the sheltered device mount for operational use and retracting the sheltered device mount downwardly toward the bottom simultaneous with the closing of the inner chamber cover to thereby position the sheltered device mount for sheltering.
