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, it competes every year in the Intercollegiate Rocketry Engineering Competition and runs Project Daedalus, a suite of experimental projects developing technology required to reach space. This year's [[Project Daedalus]] is a suite of three rockets: [[Charybdis]] is testing out passive ascent stabilization with canted fins, [[Argus]] is designing a rocket with RF-activated interior camera systems, and [[Icarus]] is creating a reefed parachute that can vary its size during descent.

Along the way, it competes every year in the [[Intercollegiate Rocketry Engineering Competition]], the [[FAR 1030 Competition]], and runs [[Project Jupiter]], a suite of experimental projects developing technology required to reach space.  

   

   

To accomplish each of the components of Daedalus, the Rockets team builds and launches [[L1 Certification|Level 1]], [[L2 Certification|Level 2]], and Level 3 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-power_rocketry high-power rockets]. These are launched with national rocketry clubs.

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 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-power_rocketry high-power rockets]. These are launched with national rocketry clubs.

The Rockets team Faculty Advisor is [[Dr. Hai Wang]]. The current team leads are [[User:iangomez|Max Newport]] and [[User:iangomez|Daniel Shorr]].
