Propulsion

The beginnings of rocketry are synonymous with the beginnings of rocket engines: devices that abuse Newton’s third to move things around. The propulsion sub-team works to build the first generations of uORocketry’s liquid rocket engines — to be cold flow and hot fire tested before the ultimate goal of being launched in its own rocket.

On the Propulsion team, you could be working on:

• Designing, developing, and analyzing iterations of the liquid engine
• Designing and selecting valves, tanks, and feed system components
• Developing the structural and electrical elements that support our engine
• Designing test equipment and data acquisition systems
