TALA is country's very-first high-power hybrid rocket! 🚀🚀🚀 GIZGUIDEPH GadgetCoach TechPH
TALA to make history today May 19According to the Philippine Space Agency, TALA will be launched on May 19.
The Philippine Space Agency has refueled the launch of TALA, the first high-power hybrid rocket developed in the Philippines by homegrown space technology researchers, students, and their mentors from St. Cecilia's College-Cebu, it said in a social media post.TALA measures 10 feet in height and weighs 15 kilograms. It was created in 2018 using 3D-printed advanced composite materials, under the Young Innovators Program of the DOST-PCIEERD.
Among its features are flight sensors, a GPS, a dual parachute deployment, and a payload system to bring a Can Satellite up to approximately 5 kilometers into the atmosphere. According to the TALA team, sending CanSats into the atmosphere using hybrid rockets is more effective than deploying these simulated satellites using drones, since hybrid rockets can deploy to higher altitudes. CanSats are used in educational settings to remotely gather environment data, PhilSA said.
TALA's launch was supposed to be in March 2020 from Mati City Airport, Davao Oriental. However, it had to be postponed indefinitely due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
