Project Imua Mission 10 involves the design, assembly, integration and testing of a multi-experiment payload that will be flown under the RockSat-X 2022 program.

WCC is once again collaborating with HonCC on the development of a payload to be launch in sub-orbital flight by a NASA sounding rocket from Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia this summer of 2022. The WCC team is designing a camphor-powered sublimation rocket that will be released at apogee. The HonCC team is designing a camera system and IMU devices to monitor the sublimation rocket’s motion. In addition, two students from Assets School are assembling an Artemis CubeSat kit provided by HSFL that will be test flown along with this payload.
