OAIRE

Runway-to-Space Spaceplane Challenge

This suborbital research and academic competition will offer U.S.-based research teams the opportunity to engage with Dawn Aerospace on designing, testing and flying their payloads aboard Aurora. ​
 
Aurora differs from traditional launch opportunities in that it is a runway-launched, rocket-powered aircraft designed for repeatable, high-cadence flights—enabling research teams to test, refine and fly again within the same program.

Submissions are limited to Oklahoma universities. This competition provides a pathway for your team to partner with Oklahoma State University in developing and submitting a competitive proposal.
