They meet the four forces of flight at the end of a tape measure
Four levels, from a straw rocket in Grade 3 to a CAD-designed, telemetry-carrying competition vehicle in Grade 12 — and never a formula handed over before students have earned it.
One question per level, each harder than the last
Why does it fly? Can I predict it? Can I prove it? Can I compete? Every level ends with a portfolio artifact, not a certificate.
Level 1 · Foundations (Grades 3–5) — why does it fly?
Straw rockets, balloon rockets and paper gliders. Students meet thrust, drag, weight and lift by changing one thing at a time and measuring what happens. They leave with a personal data journal of every launch.
What a build cycle actually looks like
First Launches
Students build straw-and-paper rockets, adjust nose shape and nose weight, and track how far each version flies. Their first real practice at recording results and spotting patterns.
Students don't memorise the four forces of flight — they find them, one test flight at a time.
Skills students build
By the end of the arc, students can:
0% checkedChoose the right entry point
Real launches, fully within Indian law
Every launch on our 1,500 sq ft outdoor pad uses water or compressed-air propulsion — genuinely powerful, and legal.
No solid motors on our premises
India regulates solid-propellant motors under the Explosives Act, 1884 through PESO licensing, with DGCA airspace rules on top. There is no hobby-rocketry exemption, so students train toward solid-motor work and do it only at sanctioned national events.
Supervised, age-gated, documented
Written protocols per tool and age band, PPE supplied, pressure limits and standoff distances enforced on every countdown, and a netted indoor cage for all drone flying.
A mapped route to real competitions
Level 4 students prepare entries for INSSDC and GSDC — whose winners advance through Asian Regionals to the international finals at NASA's Kennedy Space Center — and train toward IN-SPACe / ISRO CANSAT India and, eventually, collegiate IREC.
Watch a launch day before you commit
Free trial sessions run most Saturdays at the Hyderabad experience center. Bring a curious kid and a pair of closed-toe shoes.
