STRATHcube
In 2020 our flagship project STRATHcube was founded and aim to be the first scottish student built satellite to tackle the need for sustainable aviation and the responsible usage of space. StrathAIS already completed an initial design for the satellite who's mission it is to track and cataloge space debris during its mission duration. Our team are working on finalising the design before eventually building and launching our satellite into space!
Spaceport America Cup
Our rocketry team was founded in 2021, we design and build high power rockets that we launch in the Spaceport America Cup Competion, which is the largest intercollegiate rocketry competition in the world. We have competed in the 2022 and 2023 SAC competitions with our rockets 'Strathosphere' and 'Strathosphere MKII' , and placed 23rd out of over 120 teams in the 2023 competition which was a huge achievement!
