Colorado Space Grant Rock-Sat
The RockSat Program is starting another year of opportunities for students to build their own sounding rocket payloads. For the past two years, Wallops Flight Facility (WFF) has made sub-orbital opportunities available to the RockSat-C program. The RockSat-C program, out of Colorado Space Grant Consortium (COSGC) at the University of Colorado at Boulder, provides a standard interface to the Terrier-Improved Orion launch vehicle. This interface is called the RockSat Payload Canister. In addition to this year’s RockSat-C program, WFF and COSGC will begin a new, more advanced RockSat-X program for those wanting to push their rocket programs to new extremes. RockSat-C will launch on 23 June 2011, and RockSat-X will launch on 4 August 2011.
Colorado Space Grant Robotics Challenge
The Colorado Rocket Challenge is for small 1.5 kg robots designed/constructed by students (both undergraduate and graduate). It is a very difficult event held at the Great Sand Dunes National Park and Monument in April 2011.
