Copenhage Suborbital launching DIY-rocket - help needed!

[henque19]

The very inspiring hobby-rocketeers at Copenhagen Suborbitals have been testing their 5kN engine all year and are now ready to launch it!

I've been following them for a while and it's been amazing to see their progress. During the development and testing of the engine they've released tons of information and videos.

They really embrace the "Kerbal way" to rocket science and they are doing an amazing job of making DIY-style rockets in their pursuit of launching humans to space.

Now they need moar Funds to help with development so they've just started an Indiegogo campaign for future research. Please support them, they are well worth it!

Still going strong, I can tell you that

I visited them last summer, such a cool group of enthusiasts!

Common discussions you might hear there:

"We need a longer wire for the LOX valve near the engine"

"I just found this break wire from a car, looks heat resistant enough"

"Go for it"

Gotta love them!
