Argonia 2026

Currently in development for the 2026 Argonia Cup challenge. This challenge requires students to construct a 2-stage high-powered rocket to an altitude between 9,000 feet and 40,000 feet, and carry a payload of a number of golf balls. A score is given as a function between the max altitude, number of golf balls flown, and total amount of impulse in the vehicle. The rocket is designed to reach an altitude of 22,000 feet and carry 10 golf balls with a total impulse of 3,721 Ns. For the most optimal design, we will be doing a single separation dual deploy recovery system, as well as a minimum diameter vehicle, which is a first for the club.
