SC Rocketry is proud to announce the successful double firing of Starsailor's flight engine Stewart! The Stewart engine still holds the world record for the most powerful liquid rocket engine ever built and tested by a university team with a whopping 40kN of thrust.
For those of you who are interested, we have an 8x slowmotion of TWO hotfires available here:

As part of the Launch Canada competition in Timmins, Ontario, SCRD test fired their engine TWICE for 10 seconds each! This is the longest run time the team has ever performed. This is a major step towards obtaining launch authorization from Transport Canada, as tests like these provide us with the data required to properly model Starsailor's flight path.
We would like to extend a massive thank you to the organizations who made this possible. Thank you to Launch Canada for hosting us at the competition, thank you to the incredible firefighters from Mattagami First Nation who took time out of their day to ensure our tests went well, and thank you especially to each and every member of the SC Rocketry team, without which none of this would have happened!
