What is ÆSIR?
ÆSIR is Sweden's premier amateur rocketry club, specializing in student researched and designed (SRAD) high-powered rocketry. Founded in 2016 as a non-profit association of students at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, the association has since established itself as an engine of innovation, and a driver of competency among the next generation of engineers and managers.
What exactly does ÆSIR do?
We build high-powered rockets for international competitions, from the ground-up, with every step of the process headed, managed, and undertaken by students. Ideate, design, calculate, fabricate, assemble, simulate, test, analyze, revise, validate, construct, launch, recover, refurbish, repeat. If we're allowed to do it in-house, we do it — and if we don't know how, we figure it out.
Taking on around 50 new recruits each year, ÆSIR has become a force for education, and serves as a valuable complement to the curriculum offered at KTH — providing its members with both theoretical knowledge and practical experience unavailable in traditional academic pathways.
