Welcome to the Cambridge University Space Flight Wiki!

Visit the Page directory for a categorised list of public pages, and Members:Page directory for a categorised list of members-only pages

Note that this is a new wiki and as such many pages are unfinished. Many of the current pages were imported from a different type of wiki and as such may not be formatted correctly.

Major projects

Griffin I: A two-stage spaceshot vehicle intended to reach 150km in 2022

White Giant: A 10kN N₂O-IPA liquid engine that will power the first stage of Griffin 1

Aquila: The second stage of Griffin 1, powered by a Cesaroni Pro98 and equipped with a custom hypersonic recovery system


White Dwarf: The scaled-down version of White Giant, used to gain experience with bipropellant liquid rocket engines.

Simulation software

All of our software is free and open source. Anyone is welcome to contribute: simply open a pull request on GitHub with your suggested changes.

Bamboo: Cooling system model for liquid rocket engines

Cockroach: Redundant tracking system for HAB launches

Midas: Whole-rocket flight simulator, with emphasis on nitrous oxide behaviour in run tanks and effect on engine performance

Octopus: Software package to model 2-phase compressible flow through an injector orifice and determine fluid exit properties

CamPyRoS: Cambridge Python Rocketry Simulator is a Python package which provides fully featured rocket trajectory simulation

Tawhiri: Tāwhirimātea (Tawhiri) is our high altitude balloon landing prediction software.

Avionics Systems

Project Rooster: Avionics system for Griffin I

Project Strix: Avionics system for Martlet IV

M3 Avionics: Avionics system for Martlet III

Operations

Git and GitHub: A reference guide of how to use Git and Github, which we use for managing software and CAD

Charon: Integration between Git and SolidWorks to make CAD version control feasible

User's Guide: User's Guide to using MediaWiki, which this wiki runs on.

Members:Sysadmin: Notes for maintaining this wiki and all other CUSF services
