Congratulations to all 11 teams and over 450 students who competed this year! The final standings are now available on our leaderboard here.

As always, this competition would not be possible without the support of our industry sponsors. With their help we are able to continue our mission of providing student engineers and scientists with the skills required for Australia’s growing aerospace industry. Our 2025 competition is already underway with a launch scheduled in white cliffs for April 2025, so keep an eye out as we give updates!
