A team of Edinburgh students recorded a successful and ground-breaking rocket launch during a competition in Portugal this month.
Endeavour, a team made up of students at the University of Edinburgh, travelled to take part in the European Rocketry Challenge in Ponte de Sor where their Darwin III rocket reached an altitude of 7000m.
The impressive rocket was also travelling at 1.7 times the speed of sound and carrying a full suite of student-designed and coded PCBs for date acquisition, telemetry, power distribution and GPS tracking.
