We (almost) broke a world record.
On June 1st, 2025 we prepared to launch “Big Liquid” – our first flight-ready liquid-rocket – to 80,000 ft, a student group record.

Unfortunately, the vehicle suffered an on-board fill valve malfunction which caused oxidizer to be dumped out of the fill decoupler following ignition and decoupling.

As we progress toward a space capable liquid rocket, validating our subsystems and launch processes is absolutely critical. Big Liquid helped us do that, and taught us how to scale effectively.

Apogee: 6,439 ft

Mach 0.43

• Developed by Jackson Dendy, this Monte-Carlo integration for RocketPy allowed us to complete dispersion analysis of the rocket's landing points for our FAA Class III waiver.
