Who we are

Based at the Delft University of Technology in The Netherlands, we are one of the most advanced student rocketry teams in the world.

Since our founding in 2001, we have accumulated over 19 years of experience in high-powered rocketry.

What we do

Our goals are to provide students with unique hands-on experiences and reach space with a fully student-built rocket.

We conduct research and development in many multidisciplinary rocketry fields. Often these new technologies end up taking part in our flagship launcher Stratos.

Our latest test

We regularly upload test and launch videos on Youtube. Watch our latest DHX-400 ‘Nimbus’ engine test, which will push Stratos IV to new records

Warning: Loud video!

Stratos IV

Record breaking. Launching in 2021.

Dream

Launching rockets is hard, but that’s why we choose to do it. We want to show the world that a student team can also reach for the stars.

Build

Almost all of Stratos IV's components have been manufactured by our team and are entering the testing phase. It is crucial that everything works seamlessly during flight.

Design

The rocket is 8.3m tall and is made from extremely strong and lightweight materials such as carbon fibre, Twaron and 3D-printed titanium.

Launch

Stratos IV is scheduled to launch in 2021 from an undisclosed location. Stay tuned!
