High-Power Division

Designing, building, and launching high-power rockets for NASA Student Launch and Battle of the Rockets, reaching 3,000-5,000+ feet with thoughtful aerospace engineering.

What We Do

The High-Power sector focuses on Level 1–2 high-power rocketry, complex recovery systems, payload integration, and real-world aerospace engineering constraints. Projects mirror professional aerospace workflows — requiring design reviews, failure analyses, and technical trade studies.

Sensors & Telemetry

Live altimeter data streams and real-time flight monitoring from active onboard systems.

H-K Class Motors

High-power motors pushing rockets to competition altitudes.

Structural Airframe & CAD

CFD simulations and composite materials to sustain transonic aerodynamic stresses.

Recovery Systems

Dual-deploy parachute electronics and staged recovery design to safely return vehicles.

NASA Student Launch

A rigorous year-long project answering NASA's call for high-power technical vehicle designs carrying complex recovery experiments. One of the most demanding student aerospace challenges in the country.

Battle of the Rockets

Competing in multi-stage competitions. In the 2025-2026 season, TJ Rocketry is participating in the Mars Rover, Sensor Drop and Altitude rocketry challenges, with the final launch dates set for early April.
