Where We Learn Why it goes Boom.
Though we are just getting started we are too passionate about the universe not to share it with all of you!
We will not just write scientific and engineering papers but colorful articles on how rockets are build, exoplanets, telescopes, and science you can do right now!
We will be doing the science right with you, learning as you do. Want to look at exoplanets? Want to build you own rockets? Stay tuned cause you’ll find articles on them down below.

Educational Content Goals
Below are our goals, as we develop and grow as a team, we will be sure to keep you in the loop!
Regular Articles
These posts will range so that people of all backgrounds can join us in our passion to explore the cosmos!
Lessons Learned
Like all good science, we will make mistakes. A forgotten lens cap on the telescope, a blown up rocket, a calculation error. We want to show you how science works, including the mistakes so that we can all learn together.
Scientific Publications
Long term we are planning for two scientific articles by the end of 2028. The first will be our observations on exoplanets using a 6-inch diameter reflector telescope. The second may take longer but we are planning to study different solid state rocket motor designs to test thrust and burn efficiency.
Books Our Team Recommends
If you are looking for books to grow your learning alongside us, the books listed below are a great place to start!
Rocket Propulsion Elements – George P. Sutton & Oscar Boblarz
This book is our foundation of sorts and the first one most of us went to start our rocketry learning. If it is your first time getting into rocketry this text book cannot be recommended enough.
Topics: rocketry, engineering, textbook
Atomic Awakening -James Mahaffey
One of the most interesting books out there where you get to hear about real things called transmutations and naked cores. Will very likely make you incredibly interested in nuclear physics if you were not before.
Topics: nuclear physics, science, nonfiction
Einstein’s Fridge – Paul Sen
This book will change how you see and understand the universe while also probably make you appreciate you fridge a lot more. An incredible book to start your journey into thermodynamics.
Topics: quantum mechanics, science, nonfiction
Games Our Team Recommends
We are, of course, gamers, so how could we not recommend some games that will help you learn!
Kerbal Space Program
If you like space or rockets, at all, this game has been or is on your radar. This game will give you an inquisitive sense to how rockets general fly and the workings of orbital mechanics by doing it all in game.
Topics: orbital mechanics, flight, engineering
Dark Works Space Labs
