WI Space Race is the University of Wisconsin-Madison's amateur rocketry team involving designing, manufacturing, and testing of liquid propellant rockets. We are excited to be building a single stage liquid-powered rocket that will reach space. Our goal is to build a single stage liquid-powered rocket that will reach space. We plan to compete in competitions such as the Dollar per Foot Competition. Designing and building, from the ground up, a 25-foot-long, 1.5-foot diameter rocket will enable us to complete our 100-kilometer altitude goal. Propelled by Starfire, a 5000 pounds-force thrust engine, we will achieve the delivery of 20 kilograms of payload to space. Furthermore, successful recovery facilitates the rocket's fully reusable nature. Failure is not an option. Wisconsin's has a rich history of making massive contributions to American spaceflight. We plan to propel Wisconsin onto the mainstream of today's new-space industry by winning the competition and deploying the winnings to strategically invigorate a space-startup ecosystem in Madison, WI. Aerospace is hard, and classroom theory needs complimentary, hands-on engineering design and fabrication experience. High-stakes
