ABOUT US

Home to Ontario Tech’s largest design team, Ontario Tech Space & Rocketry (OTSR) is a student-led team focused on designing, building, and launching high-powered research rockets! With over 100 members spanning engineering, science, and business & arts disciplines, we work across specialized departments to push the boundaries past lectures. From custom electronics to advanced flight simulations, every launch represents our commitment to hands-on learning, teamwork, and technical excellence.

DEPARTMENTS

We Fly High. We Explore. We Return.

The objective of OT Mk III is to break the Canadian amateur altitude record.

Aerostructures

Shaping the rocket’s form and function with advanced materials and aerodynamic design.

Propulsion

Powers the rocket with high-thrust solid motors and explores the challenges of combustion, performance, and impulse delivery.

Avionics

Develops the onboard electronics, sensors, and flight computers that guide and control rocket operations throughout flight.

Payload

Designs scientific payload systems — including radiation detection experiments — to deliver meaningful research from near-space altitudes.

Recovery

Creates reliable parachute and descent systems to ensure the rocket returns safely and can be reused post-flight.

Outreach

Engages the broader community through STEM education, promoting rocketry and engineering to local youth and schools.
