Team America Rocketry Challenge
Deadline: Nov 30, 2018
The Team America Rocketry Challenge (TARC) is the only aerospace-specific national STEM competition. TARC has reached over 55,000 students in the past decade. An extra-curricular hands-on project-based learning program, the TARC competition is modeled around the aerospace industry's design, fabrication and testing processes. All students participate in a team of 3-10 students to design, build, and fly a rocket. Like aerospace companies work within specific design parameters, every year the challenge requires teams to achieve the same basic mission-oriented goals of hitting a precise altitude, landing within a specific flight time window, and returning a raw egg ("the astronaut") without cracking. Each year a unique task is also included; this year we are challenging students to fly two eggs and to use two parachutes to recover the rocket and eggs. Registration begins annually in September.
