Design & Manufacturing
Composite airframe, structures, and precision-machined components, built in-house with rigorous DFM and test-early philosophy.
Launch Canada 2026 Countdown
Our Mission
Our mission is to design, build, and successfully launch a Level 3 high-powered rocket at Launch Canada 2026. As a multidisciplinary team of engineering students, we push the boundaries of student rocketry through innovation, precision manufacturing, and hands-on design. Beyond achieving flight, we foster collaboration, develop practical engineering skills, and prove we can take ideas from concept to launch—while helping put Algonquin College on the map for STEM and building a lasting foundation for campus innovation.
What We’re Building
Avionics & Recovery
Redundant flight computers with integrated telemetry and DAQ; dual-deploy recovery engineered for reliability and precise data.
Team & Culture
Cross-disciplinary collaboration, documentation, safety, and mentorship—creating opportunities for future engineers.
In the Lab
From machining and wiring to rigorous testing, your support enables tangible proof of progress from our shop to the launch pad.
