CIVIL AIR PATROL MODEL ROCKETRY BADGE

 

CAP’s Model Rocketry program is an achievement program for cadets interested in the science, technology, and flight of model rockets.  There is the basic Model Rocketry program and badge, as well as the Advanced Model Rocketry program.

 

Basic Model Rocketry Program

The basic Model Rocketry book builds on the foundation of Aerospace Dimensions Module 4: Rockets, and introduces cadets to the hobby and science of model rocketry. (Both the book and module are downloadable in eServices/AerospaceEducation/AE Downloads and Resources.

The book begins with simple alternative-power models and progressively challenges cadets to construct more advanced models in three stages. The most current edition of the guide (the second edition) should be used exclusively.

  1. The Redstone Stage reviews the history of rocketry and its great pioneers, to include Robert Goddard and Werhner Von Braun.
  2. The Titan Stage details the physical laws which govern objects on the Earth, in the air and in space above us.
  3. The Saturn Stage presents information on trigonometry for altitude tracking, and physics of impulse and thrust associated with solid propellant motors typically used in model rocketry.

Cadets who complete the written and performance requirements for each of the 3 stages, as certified by their unit commander, will be awarded the Cadet Model Rocketry Badge.
