Participants receive a Level 1 Rocket Kit, Motor, and Level 1 Tripoli Rocketry Association Certification upon a successful flight. Each team is eligible to send up to 3 individuals (Advisor/Co-advisor, Team Lead, and Team Member) to the workshop. NOTE: Reimbursement deadlines are: March 4 and May 13, 2024Įach team that participates in the Virtual Kick-Off Meeting will receive a low-power rocket for demonstration flight requirements.Įach new school registered to compete will receive two reference resources: Model Rocket Design and Construction Third Edition and Modern High-Power Rocketry 2.Īdvisors, co-advisors, and students may obtain their Tripoli High-power Rocketry Certification through an in-person or virtual Launch 2 Learn (L2L) rocket certification workshop. Teams are responsible for their own transportation to and from the competition locations. WSGC provides the following meals: Friday breakfast and lunch, and Saturday breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Requests should be submitted with the budget proposal. Teams traveling from Mountain, Pacific, Hawaiian, or Alaskan time zones may request additional travel funds. Reimbursed up to $4000 for project and travel expenses (U.S. NOTE: Motor selection deadline: February 26, 2024 ![]() WSGC also provides ejection charges and a motor casing for competition flights. One (1) motor per team will be provided per the competition parameters. Equipment/Reimbursable funds provided by WSGC Competition Rocket Motor The rocket must satisfy all other technical requirements as outlined in the requirements section of the competition handbook. The drone payload must descend under drone parachute until it reaches 400’ AGL, wherein the drone parachute will release and a TRUST-certified drone pilot will pilot the drone to a predetermined landing zone. The rocket flight shall be stable and reach an apogee of 2500’ AGL. Mars Engineering Challenge: Teams are required to design, test, and fabricate a rocket that will air deploy a drone with a fabricated retractable air frame payload with size and weight limitations designed to deploy at apogee and return safely to the ground under control. It is the purpose of this Announcement of Opportunity to support the innovative, visionary projects that are student-led and designed to fully realize WSGC’s goal of assisting in training the next generation of aerospace professionals. ![]() The end result is a great aerospace learning experience unique to the Native American communities. Rocket motors and dimensions are restricted by competition parameters so that the knowledge, creativity, and imagination of the students are challenged. FNL is a ‘First Step’ experience designed for students with no prior experience working with high-powered rockets. The competition requires teams of undergraduate students to conceive, design, fabricate, and compete with high-power rockets. The Wisconsin Space Grant Consortium First Nations Launch competition offers Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCU), Native American-Serving Nontribal Institutions (NASNTI), as well as active American Indian Science and Engineering Society (AISES) collegiate chapters the opportunity to demonstrate engineering and design skills through direct application in high-power rocketry. This competition is an opportunity for students attending a Tribal College or University (TCU), a Native American-Serving Nontribal Institution (NASNTI), or who are active members of an American Indian Science and Engineering Society (AISES) collegiate chapter at a non-TCU/NASNTI university/college to design, build, and fly a high-powered rocket to be launched at a competition at the Richard Bong State Recreational Area in Kansasville, WI. NASA’s Wisconsin Space Grant Consortium (WSGC) is pleased to announce the 15th Annual First Nations Launch (FNL) National Rocket Competition.
