UK Youth Rocketry Challenge final back with a blast
On Thursday 7 October 2021, six teams from across the country went head-to-head in a final to be crowned national champions. All they had to do was to design, build and launch a model rocket carrying a fragile payload (usually a raw egg) which is brought back to the ground safely and without breaking! It’s an opportunity for young people to get engaged in STEM in a fun and exciting way.
- 1st Place: Team Vesuvius from King Edwards School, Bath
- 2nd Place: Team NHASA from North Halifax Grammar School
- 3rd Place: Team Icarus from Epsom College.
The honourable finalists were:
- Physics Nerds from NHGS
- Gordonstoun Rocketeers from Gordonstoun School
- Where are My Engines, Holt? from Tiffin School
Congratulations and thanks to our sponsors Lockheed Martin and Royal Aeronautical Society for supporting the event.
