In the first video of our new Tech Deep Dive Series, our current Nixus project lead, Jannes, explains how our liquid rocket systems work. Nixus is our bi-liquid project, which we launched at the European Rocketry Challenge in Portugal (EuRoC 2024). As the first student team, we successfully launched a cryogenic bi-liquid rocket in Europe.
INFORMATION: Due to official regulations at EuRoC 2024, we were not allowed to use our main parachute, which decelerates the rocket enough to prevent damage at touchdown. Therefore, the rocket descended with significantly higher velocity and was damaged, as seen in the video.
In future videos, you will learn more about our rocket’s subsystems and other projects in WARR itself.
The Tech Deep Dive Series episodes will come online every second week.
