Space Concordia - Club spatial de Concordia
Space Concordia is a student society at Concordia University that throws its members at challenging space and aerospace projects, to yield awesome results. We win Awards at national and international competitions, we showcase our school, but most importantly: Space Concordia teaches and trains excellent young scientists and engineers through hands-on work and an attitude of persistence and collaboration.
Spacecraft Division: Our goal is designing and launching a CubeSat – a 30cm x 10cm x 10cm nanosatellite – for the Canadian Satellite Design Challenge. The CSDC is a competition happening every two years involving universities all across Canada. We have won 1rst place in 2012, placed second in 2014, and won the trophy back in 2016!
Rocketry Division: Our goal is to successfully launch experimental sounding rockets at the Intercollegiate Rocketry Engineering Competition - Spaceport America Cup every year. We have won second place for the Payload Challenge in 2015 and the next year, second place in the 10,000ft Basic Commercial Motor Category!
Our other projects feature: Robotics, High Altitude Balloon, Lunar-port and many others.
We also promote space interest through outreach ranging from elementary school students, to international conferences.
