Tulsa Rocketry is dedicated to the promotion and safe pursuit of hobby
rocketry in all its forms. We encourage all interested people to enjoy the
sport and hobby of rocketry.
Tulsa Rocketry is the local prefecture of the Tripoli
Rocketry Association. This gives us our other name of Tripoli
Tulsa. At one time we were also a NAR
Section. We are no longer, but that could change in the future.
We have monthly meetings where we discuss construction,
materials, techniques and other interesting things related to rocketry. We
also have a monthly rocket launches. Probably the best part of Tulsa
Rocketry is sharing your experiences with other rocket enthusiasts that have the same interests as you. By learning from each other we all grow.
We conduct all our launches in accordance with the Rocketry Safety Code
which has allowed millions of flights without any serious injuries.
Tulsa Rocketry also supports other youth activities through education.
Tulsa Rocketry will present demonstration launches and/or static displays for youth groups, nonprofit organizations, holidays, special events, etc. Please contact our
for more information.
We are the chartering organization for Venture
Crew 2010, whose primary focus is on rocketry and astronomy. We
assisted two schools in the AIA/NAR
Team America Rocketry Challenge, one of which placed 45th out of over
700 across the country. We firmly believe in paying forward.
