About us
The Scientific Workgroup for Rocketry and Spaceflight (WARR e.V.) is the largest student initiative at the Technical University of Munich (TUM). As a community of over 400 students passionate about space engineering, our goal is to push the boundaries of space exploration with our independent projects. With over 10 rocket launches, 2 satellite launches, and a medical ISS experiment, WARR is one of the most successful space associations in the world.
Latest project news
We received a payout of €448.50

This time the money we have received from all of you will be put to use in three different areas: First, we are developing a robust and streamlined method for satellite testing. Our solution leverages a custom-designed breakout board paired with a Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5. This module's direct compatibility allows it to serve as a flight-representative system, seamlessly integrating with other components of our satellite. Additionally, a dedicated camera connector is included for future imaging capabilities. You can see an impression of how this could look like in the attached pictures.
While this first project will be used to facilitate learning in our team members, we want to go further. To be able to extend our educational mission, it is also crucial to be present at show cases and fairs, where students, their families and especially children can get a glimpse into the technology we are building. But some parts can be fragile while others should be handled with care. To protect our components during those exhibitions and make sure everyone stays safe, we will use some of the money to buy clear exhibition cases. This allows components to be viewed which otherwise would not be exhibited.
Lastly, we will buy a set of sensors and flash-storage chips that will be used to collect measurements during our upcoming balloon launches. This allows us to monitor both the environment and our gondola to ensure proper functionality of systems such as the insulation layers.
A big thank you to all of you that donated and we are looking forward to realising all the exiting projects.
