RockOn 2023 Higher Education Workshop

February 8, 2023

NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia is hosting the RockOn! 2023 workshop June 16-23. U.S. university and community college teams are invited to a week long, hands-on workshop to learn how to build a scientific experiment and launch it into space.

The hands-on workshop teaches participants to build experiments that fly on a sounding rocket. During the week, participants will work together in teams of three to construct and integrate a sounding rocket payload from a kit. On the fifth day of the workshop, the experiments will fly on a sounding rocket expected to reach an altitude of more than 70 miles.

Each experiment will provide valuable scientific data, analyzed as part of the student-led science and engineering research. The program engages faculty and students in STEM skills critical to NASA’s future engineering, scientific, and technical missions.

Registration Deadline: February 28th at 11:59 PM EST. Questions about the workshop or registration process can be directed via rocksatprogram@gmail.com
