Student-designed hybrid rocket in Western Canada

We make aerospace educational, memorable, and inspiring.

We are a student engineering team at the University of Calgary that builds Hybrid rockets.

Our Team

Whether it's in the Canadian cold or New Mexican heat, our teams have pushed through it all to ensure the safe and reliable performance of our rockets.

This image contains a photo of the Soar team holding their rocket, called osprey.

Hybrid Rockets

We strive to be at the forefront of experimental sounding rocketry by developing Hybrid rocket systems. Our rockets use a liquid oxidizer—Nitrous Oxide—and a proprietary solid fuel.

Our Vision

Partnered with the University of Calgary and our sponsors, we are reaching new heights. By 2026, SOAR aims to be the first North American team to launch a single-stage hybrid rocket up to 100,000 ft.

Approaching Student Teams Differently.

From design to manufacturing, we aim to develop creative and novel design solutions. Each year we display, compete and fly our rockets at either Launch Canada or Spaceport America Cup.
