About EuS

Erucae ut Stellae is an informal rocket research organization that has been engaged in designing and experimenting with rockets and propulsion technologies since 2017. Initially, the club was started in order to streamline and consolidate rocketry activities under a single umbrella. The focus in the beginning was not only to build and launch rockets, but also towards emulating space agencies. This included implementing practices such as countdown procedures before launches and igniting them electronically. These endeavors not only provided insights into advancements within the space industry but also facilitated progress tracking. By emphasizing experimentation, meticulous observation recording, and thorough documentation, we were able to build upon past experiences much efficiently. Even though we have come a long way, there is still much progress ahead.

Vehicle	Vehicle ID	Month and Year of Commission	Vehicle Class	Number of Missions	Status	Specialization	Additional Notes
EuS arcturus	E104	April, 2017 Latest Rev: Jul, 2022	Large	3	Flight Proven, Retired	Capable for higher thrusts and payload based missions. Suitable for electronics testing.	Crashed Post a successful Launch. Vehicle preserved as Heritage
Mercury Redstone, 1:48 scale Rev1	E200	June, 2017	Small	10	Retired	for assessing motor parameters. Insignificant vehicle mass ensures accurate results. Can withstand drops from higher altitude.	Vehicle is severely battered. Nose misses tip and lost structural integrity, fins burnt to a smaller degree.
Soyuz FG	E300	Oct, 2017	Small	0	Active (towards deprecation)	Insignificant vehicle mass, extreme high altitude tests. Clustering upto 5 motors is possible, thereby enabling development of smaller motors.	Status of Vehicle is Active, but will be deprecated soon due to availability of better manufacturing methods
New Shepard, 1:72 scale	E400	Dec, 2018	Small	0	Deprecated	~~Extremely stable vehicle, possesses some mass. Useful for lower altitude tests.~~	~~Vehicle is extremely fragile. At least the body tube could be reinforced.~~ Vehicle deemed inappropriate for flight. Too Fragile.
Mercury Redstone, 1:48 scale Rev2	E200b	Apr, 2020	Small	1	Active	Was built to replace the retired E200. Same specializations as the E200	Compared to E200, slightly taller, more reinforced and gloss finished.
