Space Enterprise at Berkeley – Karman or Bust – Spaceshot Rocket Engine Hardware

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Space Enterprise at Berkeley

Home: California, United States

Space Enterprise at Berkeley is a liquid rocketry club aiming to be the first collegiate team to reach space with a liquid-bipropellant vehicle! We have launched UC Berkeley's first two liquid bipropellant rockets, successfully hotfired our first liquid bipropellant engine 'Lightbulb' over 20 times, were the first college team to successfully throttle a liquid bipropellant rocket, and were the first team to successfully complete the thrust vector control (TVC) portion of the Lander Challenge. We are currently developing our spaceshot engine, 'Heavybulb', which is UC Berkeley's first regeneratively-cooled liquid bipropellant engine. We'll be showcasing the first iteration of this engine at Makerfaire along with other critical system hardware that is in the works.

Designing Stuff for SPACE!

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Samuel Coniglio

Home: California, United States

How do astronauts take a shower in space? That's one of many questions they get asked all the time. Listen to author Samuel Coniglio talk about his new book "Creature Comforts in Space": designing enjoyment and sustainability for off-world living. A veteran of Maker Faires since 2009, Samuel has a dichotomy of experience in both the aerospace world and the Maker world. He worked on the Space Shuttle and Space Station programs as a NASA contractor in the 1990's and later became a space activist promoting Space Tourism. On the side, he is a Maker at Obtainium Works, an art car factory famous for the Neverwas Haul Victorian House on Wheels. Listen to him discuss how to turn the dangers of space travel into design constraints so that you can make future space stations more fun!
