UKAYRoC UKAYRoC General UKAYRoC BackgroundA|D|S, Tri Polus Ltd, Space Connections and the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS) are proud organisers of the UK Aerospace Youth Rocketry Challenge (UKAYRoC). The challenge is based upon the successful Team America Rocketry Challenge, the largest model rocket showcase in the USA, which has been running for 8 years with 700 teams participating and organised by the US Aerospace Industries Association (AIA) and National Association of Rocketry (NAR).
UKAYRoC is now in its fifth year. The 2010 winners of UKAYRoC were Horsforth Secondary School from Horsforth, Leeds. In addition to a cash prize for the school, the team competed in the third transatlantic challenge where they placed second overall. This was held during the Farnborough International Airshow. The team also won an all expenses trip to Houston, Texas where they got to visit the NASA Johnson Space centre.
