… for building of a liquid fuel suborbital launch vehicle! We are honored to have been a part of this project, and we are proud of the role that our fins played in helping the rocket to fly passively stable.
We believe that this project is a testament to the power of collaboration between industry and education. By working together, we can achieve great things. We are confident that our partnership with Space Concordia will continue to be fruitful in the years to come.
We are also excited about the potential for this project to inspire future generations of engineers and scientists. We hope that by seeing what is possible when industry and education work together, more students will be encouraged to pursue careers in STEM fields.
Thank you again to Space Concordia for the opportunity to be a part of this project. We look forward to working with you again in the future.
A few technical notes
About the rocket build by the students at Concordia University, Montreal:
- “Starsailor”, is the largest liquid #rocket ever built in Canada;
- When fully loaded with payload, ballast, and propellants, Starsailor is expected to weigh almost 1,750kg (800kg)!
- The rocket will fly to the edge of #space @130km;
- It wast integrated onto “Bigger Ben” which is among some of the tallest launch rails in the world, at 72 feet (22 meters) tall, it's the same height as 2 school buses standing end-to-end!
