Kick off meeting -- Mon December 11, 7pm, 33-218.
Come try your hand at constructing and testing a small 20lb. thrust liquid fuel rocket engine! Each IAP, the MIT Rocket Team hosts the competition, with the goal of letting people get hands-on experience building and operating rocket engine hardware. Engines are constructed in teams of two to four. Machine shop experience and previous experience with rocketry helpful, but not necessary. Teams will be formed at the kickoff meeting on December 11, allowing teams to work on design ideas over winter break. If you are not able to attend the December 11 meeting, but are interested in participating, please contact Frederick Gay, fsgay@mit.edu.
