@CUEngineering @CUBoulderAises @DJSnM Can we get a good luck from Fly Safe himself on our Launch Saturday??? Our team would love it! It's a 5.5" dia, 8.5 ft. tall, K695R flying dual deploy vehicle with a GPS and accelerometer centered payload.

Competition Ready 🤌

This past week, the CU Trailblazers from @CUBoulderAises test-launched their rocket in preparation for the #FirstNationsLaunch this weekend in Wisconsin! 🚀

The competition demonstrates engineering skills through direct application in high-power rocketry for Indigenous students.

[CU Boulder AISES @CUBoulderAises]

As a first step to our high-powered rocket, our CU Trailblazers got together for the first in-person meeting and built/launched an Estes rocket. We're excited to show you all the things we have in store for the First Nations Launch 😙🚀

[CU Boulder AISES @CUBoulderAises]

We had fun seeing everyone at Engineering Immersion yesterday - let's keep the good vibes going and see you all around campus 🤓

[CU Boulder AISES @CUBoulderAises]

Welcome back, AISES Buffs! We hope you're all doing well, and we can't wait to hear about your breaks at our semester kick-off this Tuesday! We might be remote right now, but we got big plans this semester, so come say hi!
