Fenix Rocket

We are a group of students from Universidade da Beira Interior and from Universidade de Coimbra with a common goal: develop and test a rocket to compete in EuRoC a competition organized by Portugal Space, who look to stimulate university students to project and build their own rockets! In a time where the importance of diversity is getting more and more acknowledged around the world, it is with the greatest pride that we present a group of students that is formed by a mixture of experience and youth, with students from a big diversity of courses such as Astrophysics, Biology, Aeronautical engineering, Physics and Medicine, with some students without any connection to the area, and others with great projects such as STRATOSPOLCA in collaboration with the European Space Agency (ESA) in their resume. Our willpower made this project possible, and our mission is to prove that anyone related to the area or not can learn Rocket Science!
