Our
Story
It actually IS rocket science! Student Launch is a 9-month long challenge that tasks student teams from across the U.S. to design, build, test, and launch a high-powered rocket carrying a scientific or engineering payload. It is a hands-on, research-based, engineering activity and culminates each year with a final launch in Huntsville, Alabama home of NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center. The activity offers multiple challenges reaching a broad audience colleges and universities as well as middle and high school aged students across the nation.
Our Rocket
The NASA SLI is not a joke. Unlike the American Rocketry Competition, NASA SLI aims to have students design and build more official rockets. We will be building a high-power rocket that will stand at a whooping 7ft in height, fly up to a Mile high, and reach a speed of Mach 0.7! That's roughly 537 milles per hour!
