The Longhorn Rocket Association Prepares for Liftoff!
In the upcoming semesters, the Longhorn Rocket Association has set many goals. This includes fiberglass rocket competitions, competitions amongst themselves, with other universities, and hopefully a competition where the group will travel out of state for a NAR competition. The group also plans to launch a “Cricket Sat” during one of their upcoming launches. They also hope to test their rocket engines at Pickle Research Center, build high powered rockets, and calculate and build reusable rocket engines. With the efforts of all of the new and dedicated members, and with the help of Dr. Varghese as their sponsor and Dr. Hayes as their Advisor, the group has come far. The members are excited about the opportunities that lay ahead and are proud of the distance the group has come in such a short time period.
