Brief Update

It's been a while since we posted last, here's a brief summary of what we have accomplished.

Currently, we are working on our Final Design Summary which is the last step before actual construction begins. We expect to start building in the next week or so once our body tubes get in and to have most of our building completed after about 2 weeks. Once construction has been completed, we will begin testing the rockets and narrow it down to the top 3 rockets based on, but not limited to, flight time, safe return of the cargo, and overall performance. Before Thanksgiving, we expect to have narrowed it down further to 2 rockets and we will know shortly after which one we will use as our TARC design. A more detailed schedule should be available in the next day or so.

That's where we stand, and we're making good progress.
