One rocket, built from scratch.

Every year the American Rocketry Challenge asks teams to hit an exact altitude and flight time with a payload on board. We design ours ourselves: sketch it, simulate it, build it, then fly it and find out how wrong the simulation was.

Miss the target by a few feet and you lose points, so this is mostly a game of small decisions.

    An example flight profile. We'll replace this with our own OpenRocket simulations and real flight data as we collect them.

    More than rockets.

    We're a student-run club for the next generation of scientists, engineers, and space enthusiasts. Every other week we meet for hands-on STEM activities, and we take on bigger projects together.

        Meet the rocketry team.

        These are the students designing, building, and flying our American Rocketry Challenge rocket. Everyone on the team designs, builds, and gets a say.

          Come look up with us.

          No experience needed. Come to a meeting, try a hands-on STEM activity, and find something you want to work on.
