Spaceflight Society
Spaceflight University Spaceflight Society (SUSF) is an engineering, outreach and education society, open to anyone who wants to get involved. We design and manufacture chemical and electrical rocket engines, Mars rovers, small satellites and any other spaceflight project you can propose yourself! We collaborate within the spaceflight community to provide opportunities beyond university, as well as inspire the next generation of scientists and engineers. Most of all, we enjoy spaceflight together. We celebrate our own little launches and the famous ones; we have our own socials and collaborate with other societies; we build space stuff and have fun doing it.
We have four key components of our society, with our team projects being SUSF's core.
(1) Our six team projects: High-Powered Rocketry | Electric Propulsion | Starworks | Turbomachinery | CubeSat | Mars Rover
(2) Our outreach includes: Regular Talks from Space Industry Specialists | Visits to Space Industry Facilities and Events | Education of Spaceflight to Younger Generations
(3) Our workshops include: Modelling Simulations | Advanced CAD and CFD | Magnetic and Thermal Simulations | Manufacturing Skills
(4) Our challenges and competitions include: MachX | Race 2 Space | Beating the UK (and our own) F-Class Altitude Record | Collegiate Propulsive Landing Challenge
For our most used socials, communications and links please visit our LinkTree.
Feel free to get in touch by email at susf@soton.ac.uk or on Instagram.
