Скачать или смотреть Students Launch Most Powerful Rocket Ever Built - Historic Space Attempt in Canada

Canadian students make history! Concordia University engineering students successfully launched Starsailor, the most powerful student-built liquid-fuel rocket ever created, from northern Quebec on August 15, 2025.

This incredible 42-foot rocket represents Canada's first space-bound launch attempt in over 25 years and marks the first time Transport Canada has permitted students to launch a rocket toward sub-orbital space.

Key highlights:
7-year project involving over 700 students
13-meter liquid-oxygen and kerosene fueled rocket
Launch from remote site near Cree village of Mistissini
Speeds estimated at over 4,000 km/hour
$5 million total project value through donations and funding
Historic achievement for Canadian aerospace and student engineering

While the rocket didn't quite reach the 100km Kármán line defining space, the launch was considered a major success with stable flight, working telemetry, and valuable data collected. The students are already planning their next attempt to reach space.

This groundbreaking achievement showcases how student innovation and determination can accomplish what was once only possible for major corporations and government agencies. Watch as these brilliant engineering students make Canadian space history!
