Teamwork

Teamwork divides the task and multiplies the success.

Growing together

Many hands make light work.

Coordination

Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.

Vision

"We want to create a culture of fearlessly thinking, designing, and building ideas in the field of space research. Just like space, we will never have any boundaries on thinking, which will lead us toward the great ideas. We will work honestly and morally to bring those ideas into the motion. We want to spread the power of optimism in the community where we serve and we will expand the community day by day."

Top Projects

Balloon Satellite

Balloon Satellite was launched on 28th Feb 2018. The aim was to collect dust above the ozone layer because the scientist from IISER Bhopal wanted to study how the organisms at that altitude survive in an environment with high UV rays.

Phoenix Rocket

On December 20, 2019, the Space Club, RIT took part in a national-level rocketry competition organized by SDNx.We won first place out of ten teams from around India. The task was to develop, produce, and launch rockets with a range of up to 1 km.

EPLV 1.1

The EPLV 1 mission is reaching a height of 1000m (1km), testing the recovery system, and gathering data from several sensors at that altitude. This data will be used in future missions such as Cloud Seeding.

Top Events

IIT Bombay workshop

A workshop on Satellite was taken by the IITB Pratham Satellite students in RIT arranged by the Satellite division of the space club. In this workshop, the students who worked on Pratham Satellite guided us throughout the workshop. Pratham Satellite was India's first student satellite launched by ISRO.

Open Rocket Workshop

Organized by the Aerospace club at presidency University, Bangalore, and was conducted by Shardul Structure and design engineer at the space club. The workshop's main goal is to learn the fundamentals of open rocket software, how to design a more efficient and stable rocket.

Antariksh Workshop

On Science Day and the 5th anniversary of the RIT Space Club, a one-day workshop called "ANTARIKSH" was held. Rocket science and astronomy, avionics, satellite basics, antenna design, and other topics were covered by the space club during this session.
