🚀 Who We Are
College Rocket Showcase is a passion project created by Nico Montoya, an engineer with experience at Orbital Operations, Stoke Space, Relativity Space, Blue Origin, SpaceX, Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin, NASA-JPL, to name a few. What started as a hobby is growing into a platform dedicated to celebrating the incredible achievements of college rocket clubs across the country.
🌎 Our Mission
We believe college rocket teams are the heartbeat of the next generation of aerospace innovators. Our mission is to:
- Give student rocket clubs a central platform to highlight their milestones.
- Build a living record of launches, static fires, and technical progress.
- Connect students with the aerospace industry and internship opportunities.
📊 What We Do
- Club Showcase – A searchable directory of university rocket clubs.
- Event Records – Verified submissions of launches and static fires, creating a transparent record of student accomplishments.
- Industry Bridge – As the platform grows, we’ll connect aerospace companies with student teams for recruiting and internships.
🤝 How You Can Get Involved
We’re currently building out the event database, and we’d love your help:
- Submit your club’s past static fires or launches (verification can be added later).
- Share photos, videos, and stories of your projects.
- Be part of the first wave of clubs featured on College Rocket Showcase.
🌟 Our Future Vision
Once established, College Rocket Showcase will partner with leading aerospace companies to provide a direct link between student talent and real-world opportunities. With contributions from clubs nationwide, this project will grow into a resource that supports both students and the industry.
