RockOn Workshop – Maryland Space Grant Consortium

RockOn, a workshop at Wallops Flight Facility for sounding rocket payload design, is an exciting chance for faculty and students to kickstart payload projects at their home institutions. Participants in the workshop will build a working scientific payload and then see it launch on a real sounding rocket!

MDSGC intends to sponsor one or more teams for each year’s workshop and encourages Maryland students and/or faculty to submit applications for team sponsorship! For 2023, the RockOn registration period ran from late January through the end of February. If you are interested for next year, please contact MDSGC and complete the application below before mid-January.
