We are Bath University Rocket Team!
We are a student engineering team from the University of Bath aiming to design and manufacture an experimental sounding rocket to take part in the Spaceport America Cup. This is an international student rocketry engineering competition held every year at the Virgin Galactic Spaceport in New Mexico. Currently we are one of only two UK teams.
Our rocket is using a solid fuel motor to reach a target apogee (height) of 10,000ft (3000m) while carrying a 4kg payload. Then it must return safely to the ground using a dual stage recovery system.
We have completed the design of our rocket and the next step is to begin the manufacture and testing to compete in June 2019. To do this we need sponsorship to cover the costs of materials, manufacture and testing, as well as transporting the rocket and the team to America to take part in the competition. We will begin this process as soon as possible.
Your support will enable us to take part in this exciting competition, and allow us to learn more about rocketry and engineering. We are grateful for any help you can give us!
We are also looking to do some rocket and engineering based outreach in schools during this academic year, and any extra sponsorship we gather will be put towards funding these outreach activities.
In addition, if you sponsor us for £5 or more we will include your name (at your discretion) amongst those of our other sponsors on the side of our finished rocket.
