Earlier this year, the Wisconsin Space Grant Consortium, which implements the First Nations Launch (FNL) competition on behalf of NASA, hosted the activity’s first Launch Weekend since 2019 at Carthage College in Kenosha, Wisconsin. In attendance at this 13th annual event were nearly 60 students from 13 schools around the country who represented 25 tribal organizations.⁣
⁣
The NASA FNL competition, an Artemis Student Challenge, offers students from Tribal Colleges and Universities, Native American Serving Nontribal Institutions, and schools with American Indian Science and Engineering Society chapters the opportunity to demonstrate engineering and design skills through high-powered rocketry.⁣
⁣
This year’s overarching competition theme was flight dynamics. The Moon Challenge required a GPS data logger onboard and an apogee of 3,500 to 4,000 ft., in addition to verifying stability and creating a 3D reconstruction of the trajectory of the flight. The Mars Engineering Challenge required a cold gas thruster system, gyroscope sensor, and an external camera – with the rocket maintaining a roll rate of 120-240 rpm for 3 seconds and reaching an altitude range of 3,500 to 4,000 ft. The Gateway Challenge required a design from a list of possible kit combinations and a launch to an altitude of 2,500 ft.⁣
