The Rockets team is a student-led group striving to push the limits of high power rocketry. The team's long-term goal is a shot to the 100-km Karman Line, which forms the common definition of space. Along the way, the Rockets team competes regularly in the [[Intercollegiate Rocketry Engineering Competition|Intercollegiate Rocketry Engineering Competition (IREC)]], the Friends of Amateur Rocketry (FAR) 51025 Competition, and the Collegiate Propulsive Lander Challenge (CPLC). The Rockets team is structured into team projects, a High Power Rocketry (HPR) certification program, and research & development.
The active team projects are Fountain Hopper and Phoenix. Fountain Hopper is a lander rocket project competing in the CPLC. In Fall 2023, the project will begin custom hybrid engine development and will prototype an electric ducted fan for simulating a full scale lander vehicle aimed for launch within three years. Phoenix is a two-stage rocket project that competed in the FAR 51025 fully equipped with redundant avionics, dual recovery on both stages, and a traveling rover. In Fall 2023, Phoenix will be a two-stage rocket project competing in the 2024 Spaceport America Cup IREC.
In order to help our team members learn the fundamentals of rocketry, the Rockets team builds and launches [[L1 Certification|Level 1]], [[L2 Certification|Level 2]], and Level 3 high-power rockets. These are launched with national rocketry clubs, such as the Tripoli Rocket Association and the National Association of Rocketry.

A high powered rocket is defined as a rocket that weighs more than 1500 grams and contains a motor or motors containing more than 125 grams of propellant and/or rated at more than 160 Newton-seconds of total impulse. There are different classifications for motors and different levels of certification required to use these motors. These rockets fall in the Class 2 Rocketry category as long as their total impulse remains below 41,000 Ns. Class 3 rockets require motors that cannot be bought commercially (and are classified as [[ITAR#Defense articles | ITAR defense articles]]).

Rocketry is difficult to master, but worth the tedious design process. The more time you put in, the better your project will turn out as well as experience less schedule slip. L1 and L2 do not require more than 10 hours combined (since they come from kits). L3 projects require much more time since these are designed from scratch and need to go through our NASA-inspired design process.

L1 and L2 do not require more than 10 hours combined (since they come from kits). L3 projects require much more time since these are designed from scratch and need to go through our NASA-inspired design process.
Team projects take a couple hours a week at the minimum for systems and work sessions. Usually team projects are the most active in Spring Quarter as team projects prepare for competitions in June. Most team projects have activities occurring in End Station III everyday.
== Rocket Naming Conventions, Acronyms, & Lingo ==
{| class="wikitable"
|5k / 10k / 25k
|Elevation of a rocket in feet. Measured from AGL (above ground level).
|-
|AGL
|“Above ground level” - the standard way of measuring altitude of a rocket. As opposed to measurements from sea level.
|-
|Apogee
|The highest point a rocket hits.
|-
|Arming
|The process to prepare the rocket for launch on the launch pad. Extreme care must be done while arming, as the rocket could ignite or separate charge explode if done incorrectly.
|-
|AV Bay
|Short for avionics bay, the part of the rocket that had computers for measuring altitude, and events like reigniting or parachute deployment.
|-
|Ballistic
|A rocket which fails to deploy its parachutes and crashes into the ground. It’s happened many times.
|-
|Black power charge / BP charge / ejection charge
|A highly combustible substance used to separate the rocket for recovery. An e-match ignites the charge, and the rapid pressure separates the rocket for a parachute to deploy.
|-
|Booster stage
|The bottom stage of a two stage rocket, which detaches partway through the flight.
|-
|Bulkhead
|A cylindrical block in the rocket used to separate components. Usually it separates the parachute from the rest of the rocket, to protect the rest of the rocket from the blast of the ejection charge.
|-
|Burn time
|Number of seconds an engine burns. Slower burn times are more efficient, getting a higher altitude for a given thrust. Faster burns are more stable, as you are going faster once the launch rail is no longer guiding you.
|-
|Bus coefficient / bus factor
|The number of people that can be hit by a bus before launch and still launch successfully. Legend has it the term was coined after someone in SSI was hit by a bus and the flight had to be canceled because no one else could do their job. Bus factor should always be greater than one, ideally 5 or more.
|-
|Carbon Fiber
|A ultra high strength, lightweight material. Great for rocketry but also very expensive and difficult to manufacture. Also can be harmful to breath while cutting if proper safety precautions aren’t taken. Also blocks communication from the rocket, so not often only used in certain areas like reinforcing fins.
|-
|CG / center of gravity
|The point of balance on the rocket.
|-
|CP / center of pressure
|The average regions of the rocket where air resistance is applied.
|-
|CPLC
|The 4-year long challenge that Fountain Hopper competes in. Established January 1, 2023.
|-
|Drogue chute
|A small parachute that’s used for high elevation launches (usually higher than 5,000 ft). It slows the rocket until a main chute deploys.
|-
|Dry mass
|Weight of rocket without motors. Last year ours was about 10 lbs per stage (20 lbs total for the rocket).
|-
|Epoxy
|A high strength adhesive, often used with carbon fiber and fiberglass. You mix two resins together, and it dries in a number of hours.
|-
|Event
|An action that occurs during flight, such as parachute deployment or engine ignition.
|-
|Failure modes
|Reasons for a rocket to not have a successful launch. Common failure modes are tangled parachutes, electronics failure, engine explosion, and fins tearing off.
|-
|FAR
|The launch site for more experimental launches at, like custom engines and multi-stage rockets.
|-
|FAR 51025
|The two-staged competition Phoenix competes in.
|-
|Fiberglass
|A high strength, lightweight material with woven fibers. Often used for the body and fins of the rocket. Cheaper than carbon fiber (although still pricy), and conductive to signal it’s often the better choice of a rocket building material.
|-
|Fillets
|Thick regions of glue around the fins for securing the fins to the body.
|-
|Fins
|Surfaces on the aft of the rocket that keep the rocket stable.
|-
|Integration
|Combining all subsystems onto the rocket.
|-
|Integration test
|A dry run of combining everything onto the rocket before the launch to ensure it fits properly.
|-
|Launch lug
|Small plastic guides sticking out the side of the rocket that hold the rocket to the launch rod.
|-
|Launch rail / launch rod
|The support that keeps the rocket stable until it has sufficient velocity to keep itself stable. Usually 20 feet long, but we also have the option of 10 ft or 60 ft.
|-
|Main chute
|In the case of a single chute rocket, the chute that deploys at apogee. In the case of a two chute rocket, the chute that deploys around 1,000 from the ground and brings the fall of the rocket to something that can be recovered without damage.
|-
|Minimum diameter
|A rocket whose body tube acts as the motor tube, any smaller and the motor would no longer be able to fit inside the rocket. This is more efficient and makes motor assembly easier, however makes fins more challenging because they can no longer stick into the body, and launch lugs can’t be screwed into the airframe.
|-
|Motor
|The thrust producing element of a rocket. In our case a solid fuel motor.
|-
|Motor casing
|Aluminum casing that guides the thrust of the motor out the bottom.
|-
|Motor class
|The power category of a motor. It’s a logarithmic scale, so the thrust from H to I is about double. Legally you can go up to O in California.
|-
|Motor grain
|The fuel in the rocket which combusts to produce thrust.
|-
|Motor tube
|A tube permanently fixed into the rocket that the motor casing slides into.
|-
|Nosecone
|The top of the rocket.
|-
|Off the rail velocity
|The speed of the rocket by the time it’s no longer contacting the guide rail. Usually this should be greater than 60 mph, but exact values vary depending on rocket and fin size, and wind.
|-
|Open rocket
|Rocket simulation software for predicting stability caliper, apogee, center of gravity, and other flight statistics.
|-
|Over stable
|When the rocket stability caliper is too high, usually greater than 2. The rocket can oscillate in the air. While not always bad, it adds additional stress to the rocket which risks it breaking, and makes the flight less efficient.
|-
|Phoenix
|The name for our project, building a two stage rocket.
|-
|Project team
|Project groups within SSI, like Phoenix, Olympus, Tobias, and Satellites.
|-
|Recovery
|The parachutes and systems that hold the parachutes.
|-
|Rocket diameter
|The diameter of the tube of the rocket.
|-
|Rockets team
|The part of SSI building rockets. While the largest team in SSI, it’s far from the only active project. But it's obviously the best, don't get it twisted.
|-
|Scrubbed
|When a launch is cancelled, usually referred to when the rocket is on the launch pad or close to it but can’t launch for some reason.
|-
|Separation testing
|Ejecting the chutes in a controlled way on the ground to ensure the rocket can separate effectively.
|-
|Shock cord
|The rope that connects the parachute to the rocket.
|-
|Solid Fuel
|Type of motor that uses a reaction of elements that’s usually solid and stable without activation energy even when mixed. These generally burn fast and with lots of thrust.
|-
|SSI
|Stanford Student Space Initiative.
|-
|Stability caliper
|The distance between the CP and CG, divided by the rocket diameter. A stability less than 1 is unstable, and risks going out of control mid flight. Stability greater than about 2 risks being over stable.
|-
|Sustainer stage
|The top stage of a two stage rocket.
|-
|Telemetry
|Data received from the rocket during flight. Usually GPS position to find it after landing.
|-
|Thrust transfer ring / Thrust plate
|Metal ring that sits at the bottom of the motor, and helps transfer thrust through the body of the rocket. Only necessary if the motor has a super high impulse.
|-
|Tip to tip
|A method of reinforcing fins, in which carbon fiber sheets are epoxied to the fins and body tube.
|-
|Total impulse
|The integration of thrust over time. This designates the letter for the engine.
|-
|Two Stage rocket
|Rocket with multiple phases of engine power.
|-
|Zippering
|When the airframe of the rocket gets cut from the parachute’s shock cord. Usually occurs because the rocket is falling too fast by the time the parachute opens, and the rocket decelerates so fast it rips a hole in it.
