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.
To accomplish each of the components of Daedalus, the Rockets team builds and launches Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 high-power rockets. These are launched with national rocketry clubs.
The Rockets team Faculty Advisor is Dr. Hai Wang. The current team leads are Max Newport and Daniel Shorr.
