Abstract
This technical report details the design, testing, and manufacturing of a liquid bi-propellant sounding rocket by the Stanford Student Space Initiative for the 2022 Spaceport America Cup’s 30,000ft Hybrid/Liquid Category. The 5 inch diameter, 10 foot long launch vehicle is powered by an N-class nitrous oxide and kerosene pressure-fed liquid motor with a max. thrust of 350 lbf. Fiberglass structures house custom flight avionics with LoRa radio telemetry capabilities alongside custom parachutes with redundant deployment mechanisms for vehicle recovery. The vehicle will fly a payload studying micro-gravity slosh dynamics to inform future experiments to be performed aboard a Blue Origin launch.
