Our senior members, Joe Dolina, Joel Godard, Matthew Gordon, Stefan Arroyo-Cottier, and Xavier Rayes recently showcased their fourth year design project, Project Sisyphus (1-2)! Project Sisyphus is an ethanol-nitrous oxide liquid rocket engine for Waterloo Rocketry. The project features a custom metal 3D printed combustion chamber, made from CuCrZr (3) and our electrical ground support equipment for power (4). All their efforts culminated at the design symposium, where the team presented to the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Waterloo and or sponsors (5-6). Continued research and development drives the advancement of our propulsion systems, expanding the technological limits and pushing innovation forward!

Thank you to Dan Steinhaur and Stein Industries Inc. for making this project possible!
