Currently, the team is working on a national outreach project to develop educational kits for school students to build their own rovers!<\/p>\n<p><strong>High-powered Rocketry<\/strong> is in the process of designing and building a solid motor rocket for launch at the Mach-25 competition in July. CanSat is their payload.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Liquid Rocket Engine<\/strong> has been working towards developing a liquid rocket engine to test fire at the race to space competition in July, with manufacture well underway! Alongside this, they have finalised the design for their liquid rocket and are completing manufacture and testing for this too, with hopefully a physical launch test coming up later this year.<\/p>\n<p>This year, the <strong>Turbomachinery<\/strong> engine team has developed and manufactured the test stand and engine components required for testing and characterisation. The pump team also started the design of the turbo-pump system for future integration with the engine using specialised software acquired through sponsorship. To complete the year, the team aims to test the engine system at R2S before shifting focus to the deployment of the turbo pumps and feed systems in future years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Team Leads Garan Carter-Woodgate Abigail Durrant Gianluca Borgo Manisha Mahesh Kumar Tianna Patel Ben Busschaert James Bailey Christian Stimpson Louis Hall Committee members Zoe Costigan Nick Hall Libby Paine Nik Pedzik Ethan Wilson Adi Soundalgekar Alexander Wolverson Veronika Predeina Grace Garczynski Filippo Caley Supervisor Dr Charlie Ryan Spaceflight Society has run six projects this year: [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/uosdesign.org\/designshow2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8021"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/uosdesign.org\/designshow2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/uosdesign.org\/designshow2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uosdesign.org\/designshow2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uosdesign.org\/designshow2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8021"}],"version-history":[{"count":16,"href":"https:\/\/uosdesign.org\/designshow2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8021\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8027,"href":"https:\/\/uosdesign.org\/designshow2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8021\/revisions\/8027"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/uosdesign.org\/designshow2025\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8021"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
