WR-1 Is Finished

We built a rocket! According to simulations, once it’s been completed, it should comfortably reach an altitude of 1000m, carrying an interesting payload. The flight computer’s design has substantial room for improvement. We hope to get more electronic engineers on board next year to work on an improved design!

I’ll write a follow-up post soon, telling the entire story of the design and construction of WR-1, also known as the I’m Sure A More Poetic Name Will Become Obvious Once We’ve Built It. For now, here’s a photo:
