ABOUT CORNELL ROCKETRY Cornell Rocketry is an engineering project team dedicated to learning about how to design, assemble, and launch rockets. Each year, the team participates in the NASA Student Launch competition, which typically involves launching a high-powered rocket to 5,280 feet with a specific payload. Our team is comprised of 39 members from all different disciplines such as Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, Computer Science, Economics, Electrical Engineering, and Operations Research Engineering. What brings us together is a shared lifelong passion for aerospace. Although we are a young project team, we won the NASA Centennial Challenge in 2016 and placed 3rd overall last year (2017) in the NASA Student Launch Competition. In 2017, we won 2 out of 5 technical awards, including the Safety Award and Project Review Award. This year, we are excited to challenge ourselves by building a rover as our payload, which deploys from our rocket at landing through remote activation. After deployment, the rover will autonomously move 5 feet and unfold a set of solar panels. Besides the deployable rover system, our team also works on creating a communication system for the rocket to allow the tracking of the rocket throughout launch. We are committed to challenging ourselves and look forward to achieving new heights at competition this year.

NASA STUDENT LAUNCH
Requirements for the
competition include, but are not limited to:
• Launching to precisely feet above ground level
• Reaching the required height with engine stage
• Creating a communications system that will track
the rocket throughout the launch up to miles and relay its flight information and location
• coordinates to the team • Deploying a rover at landing which will
autonomously move feet through unknown terrain and unfold a set of solar panels • Constructing a rocket sufficiently durable so that it
may be launched, recovered, and re-launched on the same day without significant repairs or
modifications

Why Become a Sponsor? Sponsoring us not only provides aspiring scholars with an opportunity to learn skills applicable to the
workforce, but it also increases your company’s presence at Cornell University. It’s a win-win!
BENEFITS
- Visibility at Cornell
- National visibility through television streaming at the
NASA Student Launch
- Advertising through Social Medial Channels
- Recruiting access to CRT members
- All donations are tax deductible
In order to perform our best, CRT relies on outside sources for support, especially for the cost of materials in
fabricating our rocket. Various expenses include payload
electronics and supplies, travel fare to launch sites and the
competition site, as well as safety equipment. Donors help us our operations up run smoothly. The more resources at our disposal, the closer we are to reaching our goals.
