Premises of the Small Rocket Project Blog

The aim of this blog was not really clear to the writer at the beginning: there was the wish of bringing together all the knowledge created during the designing and manufacturing process of the rocket; at the same time it was important to document every bit of the experience transmitting the reader the joy of doing such project. 

In other words if on the one side the reader will know the procedures and the techniques used to manufacture and build an amatory rocket with the peculiar mission of mounting an egg as a payload and recovering it intact on the ground, on the other he/she will have a good laugh reading about the nerdy adventures of the team from February to May 2017.

As a writer, I just hope to provide sufficient information to anyone who wants to reproduce the project, while keeping the narration entertaining and funny.

Introduction to the Small Rocket Project (SRP)

The small rocket project is a project for bachelor students of engineering faculties at TU Delft who wants to have practical experience in building an amateur rocket. The project is every year organized by the senior members of DARE ( Delft Aerospace Rocket Society ). Students who wants to take part in the project are divided in teams; the ultimate mission of every team is the following: "Launching a small rocket able to reach about 1000 meters of altitude mounting an egg as a payload and recovering it intact". On top of gaining practical experience, experiencing the full cycle design of a rocket and improving team working skills, the SRP gives young students the chance of getting to know the rocket society, their team leaders and the project carried out in the society. The WBPP team at work at the military base of 'T Hard Students experience a full cycle engineering design from the conceptual design, to testing and finally to the launch of the rocket. Teams ...
