  1. UCF USLI 2009-2010 Organization Team Development Proposal Requirements September 17th, 2009

  2. Purpose/Objective • A competition to design, build, test, and launch a reusable rocket within NASA standards to reach an altitude of one mile. • Launch Vehicle must carry a scientific payload • Teams scored in multiple categories: • Vehicle Design, Payload Design, Project Review (PDR/CDR) Quality, Outreach, Web-Design, Closest to Altitude, Best Looking Rocket, Team Spirit, and Overall Winner

  3. Requirements Carry a scientific payload Reach one mile in altitude Design to be recoverable and reusable Launch day preparation shall be <4 hours Land within one square mile Data from payload must be collected, analyzed, and reported following the scientific method

  4. Requirements Continued… Launch Vehicle must contain a Tracking Device Commercially available NAR/TRA motors Provide your own Ground Support Equipment Launch scale-sized rocket prior to FRR Total cost of rocket and payload must not exceed $5000 Public Outreach project involving 75 younger students

  5. Tentative Schedule • Meetings Weekly • General or Engineering Review • Before Winter Break • Half Scale Launch • Full Scale Parts Ordered

  6. Document Due Dates • 10/9 Proposal • 11/12 Web Presence Established • 12/4 Preliminary Design Review (PDR) • 1/20 Critical Design Review (CDR) • 1/28-2/5 CDR Presentations • 3/17 Flight Readiness Review (FRR) • 3/25-4/2 FRR Presentations • 4/17-4/18 Launch (In Huntsville, AL) • 5/7 Post-Launch Assessment Review (PLAR) • 5/21 Announcement of Winning Team

  7. Funding • Florida Space Grant Consortium (~$1000) • Already acquired • Maybe more $$ for travel down the road • SGA (~$6000) • Not yet acquired • SGA Senate Bill Through SEDS • Industry • Hardware donation • Free Shipping • More funds

  8. Budget (<$5000) • Payload ~ $1000 • Flight Computer, Required Altimeter, T&C, GPS, Battery, Experiment • GSE / Recovery ~ $500 • Launch Stand, Fueling/Ignition Equipment, Parachute, Ejection Charges, Assorted Hardware • Structures/Dynamics ~ $300 • Body Tubes, Fins, Nose Cones, Bulk Heads, Couplers, Motor Mounts, Composites/Hardware • Propulsion ~ $450 • Motor Hardware, Fuel/NO2, Spare parts • Travel (4 Students) ~ $2250 • Flight, Hotel, Food, Car Rental • The more we raise, the more that can go!

  9. Outreach • Minimum of two projects involving >75 younger students total • Go to K-12 and launch water rockets or small kits • Lectures on rocket science • Lectures on NASA History • $100 stipend for a project involving the Girl Scouts

  10. Experiment / Payload • Zero Gravity Research Project • Spin Rate Measurement • Deployment for Precise Altitude • Airbrakes for Precise Altitude • What experiment can be done which is unique to high acceleration, one mile altitude, apogee event, or descent!!?? • PHS guys???
