Cornell Rocketry Team (CRT) is a student-led engineering project team at Cornell University. Consisting of students from four different colleges within the university, CRT strives to push the limits on high-power rocketry and build innovative and sustainable payloads. The team is currently competing in the 2017-2018 NASA University Student Launch competition with their rocket, ''Flammea''.
As part of their team education series on high-power rocketry, members build and launch Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 high-power rockets. Most local launches occur as part of Upstate Research Rocketry Group (URRG), sanctioned as Tripoli Prefecture #139 and National Association of Rocketry (NAR) Section #765.
CRT's faculty advisor is Dr. Daniel Selva and the team's faculty mentor is Daniel Sheerer. The current team leads are Bryan Zheng (AEP '19), Chris Fedors (ECE '18), and Stephanie Chang (CS '20).
