Registration is now open for the 2015 Rocketry Challenge, where teams will have a chance to engage in STEM through analyzing math and science concepts by designing, building, and test-flying a model rocket. Sponsored by the Aerospace Industries Association (AIA) and the National Association of Rocketry (NAR), this challenge is the world’s largest rocket contest, with over 7,000 participants competing each year. The top 100 finalists of the Team America Rocketry Challenge will have a chance to test-fly their rockets in Washington DC in May for a chance to receive up to $60,000 and scholarships if they finish in the top ten. This contest is a great way for students to apply their STEM knowledge outside of the classroom. The deadline to apply is December 12, 2014.
