Students ready homemade rockets for October launch AI illustrationhow this picture was made

Fifty high school students across Buenos Aires have completed construction of scale rockets and programmed their flight payloads ahead of a planned launch ^[1]. The launch will take place 23 October. The rockets are designed to reach approximately 150 metres altitude ^[3]. Each carries a CanSat, a small computer coded by the students to record pressure, inclination and acceleration data during flight. Teams will compare the logged flight data against their pre-launch calculations. A participant from Colegio Mariano Moreno remarked that cross-team work between the young rocket builders had been the most notable part of the project ^[2].
