Welcome to the site of the Student Aerospace Challenge

 

22 teams still in the running for the 18th edition of the Challenge.

For this new exercise, we introduced the possibility of working on an orbital vehicle servicing low-Earth orbit, while retaining the two suborbital vehicles previously proposed. As every year, the work packages have been reviewed.

The website has been modified to create a "My Challenge" tab, which should make it easier for participants to find useful information during the exercise. An "FAQ" tab will soon be available.

Here are the key dates for 18th exercise:

The Challenge, proposed by Astronaute Club Européen (ACE) and its industrial and institutional partners (ArianeGroup, Dassault Aviation, the European Space Agency and Musée de l’Air et de l’Espace), allows students to participate to the study of a manned suborbital vehicle which is a reusable vehicle designed either for local suborbital flights or for high speed, long-range flights, or a space manned vehicle servicing Low Earth Orbits.

If you are an undergraduate or a graduate student from a European college or university, you are given an opportunity to create a team with fellow students and to work on a meaningful project covering many topics (technical, medical or legal aspects, etc...). You can put your knowledge into practice within the framework of a project (linked to your core activity or in complement) concerning an evolving field.

Go through this web site, speak about it around you, form your team and send your application to the Selection Committee to possibly, as hundreds of engaged students during former years, actively take part in this adventure while strengthening your ability to join the professional world.

Good reading and see you soon!
