Spaceport America Cup 2024
In June 2024, DUSF flew to America to compete in the largest student rocketry competition in the world, the Spaceport America Cup. Our first time competing internationally, we were flying a modified version of our Mach-23 winning rocket, Rosemary I. Launching at White Sands in New Mexico, Rosemary 1.1 flew to 2,690 metres carrying our new payload: a flywheel that was used to reduce the rocket's spin throughout flight.
