Solid Propulsion

Engine Testing Subteam

What We Do:

The Engine Testing Subteam works on our testing hardware, called the Solid Engine Test Stand (or SETS for short). So far, we have created two iterations of the test stand (named SETS_1 and SETS_2), and are working on a third and final iteration, SETS_3. Our test stands are critical for data acquisition and processing from our hot-fire tests, so we can analyze performance and further refine our rocket motors and structures.
