About
Rocket Propulsion Group is an Aerospace team focused on the development and research of solid propellant rocket motors. The team's goal for the 2025-26 academic year is to compete in the Spaceport America Cup in New Mexico in the Student Research and Design category. Last year, RPG mixed its first batch of propellant, which was a mixture designed by MIT called Cherry Limeade, and conducted its first small scale tests of rocket motors that were powered by powdered sugar.
