Rockets2024: All You Need To Know

We are pleased to announce we are once again welcoming the public to attend our launches or view them on Livestream (links below).

Please read carefully to understand our needs for safety and accountability.

THIS IS AN EXPERIMENTAL TESTING RANGE: ALL VISITORS MUST PRE-REGISTER TO BE ADMITTED TO LAUNCH AREA! (Links posted below next to each launch site)

  • Launches follow no fixed schedule. Rockets will go up during all daylight hours, in the order they are certified prepared for launch and recovery.
  • Mobility may be limited, access will be controlled. Visitors need to be aware that these are experimental, student designed and built rockets that have not been tested prior to this event.
  • Limited food and bathroom facilities will be available on the grounds. Bring lawn chairs and tent covers if desired.

Access:
Any member of the public wishing to attend a launch is required to register online (ticket links located with site information) and agree to our Terms and Conditions acknowledging that they are entering a test site on undeveloped ranch land with launching of student-built sounding rockets. Proof of registration is required upon entering the site.

Plans are to livestream the event, weather and internet access permitting.
