Abstract

Binghamton University's Spaceshot team, AeroBing, has been working on developing rockets, with the aims of eventually launching to space. We have formulated our own propellant, fired many test motors, and collected all kinds of data. The propulsion team will outline their current data, specifically X-rays, microscopes, particle size analysis, SEM, load cells, to demonstrate the current progress of their project.
