Our featured UROC Presentation

The Utah Rocket Club (UROC) is an organization dedicated to the promotion of safe and fun activities for people of all ages through the sport, science, and hobby of rocketry.

Some of our members emphasize scale modeling and fine detail in their projects while others care more for brute force and sheer power. Some rockets are very simple in their design and use basic single parachute recovery systems. Other rockets are extremely complex using clustered or staged motors, advanced electronics, multiple parachute events and even radio control and on-board video transmission. Whatever your particular interest in hobby rocketry, UROC can contribute.

Under the umbrella of our two national sanctioning organizations the National Association of Rocketry and the Tripoli Rocketry Association through which benefits such as international contest eligibility, accident insurance, access to a huge array of technical resources and much more.
