MROW. Ignitors Rocketry has successfully cold flowed their first liquid engine after a lot of hard work from the team. Special thanks to the Brazo Country Volunteer Fire Department Precinct 3 for allowing us to cold flow and ensuring the safety of our members and the public.

This past week we competed in IREC 2026 in the 10k COTS hybrid category with our 4" diameter, 11.6 foot tall fiberglass rocket named Thunderbolt. It flew on a commercial hybrid motor system [Contrail M2281] to an apogee of 6,081 feet carrying our soil sample payload 🚀⚡️

Happy 100 years of liquid rocketry! March 16th, 1926 Robert H. Goddard launched the world's first liquid fuel rocket, changing history forever.
Speaking of liquid rockets...we had our Preliminary Design Review (PDR) for our team's first liquid rocket, Liquid Courage recently!

A 2.5-second rocket flight that heralded decades of discovery in space!
Today marks 100 years since the first successful test of a liquid-fueled rocket. Robert H. Goddard's achievement would have appeared unimpressive by most measures: His rocket flew just 41 feet in the air, landing in a nearby cabbage patch. Liquid-propelled rocketry has been the backbone of spaceflight ever since.

ALT On a snowy March 16, 1926, Dr. Robert H. Goddard rests his hand on the testing frame supporting his liquid fuel rocket at Ward Farm in Auburn, Massachusetts. A wooden door is propped up at an angle next to the frame where Goddard\u2019s assistant, Henry Sachs, later sheltered after lighting the rocket.
