IAC 2024 🚀 Deep Dive into Rocketry with Simen Flåtter Flo: Propulse NTNU and RFA Insights

Описание: 🎙️ In this interview excerpt, I had the pleasure of reconnecting with Simen Flåtter Flo from Propulse NTNU, who’s currently also working at Rocket Factory Augsburg (RFA). This conversation was just a small part of the many hours we spent together at IAC 2024—from discussing his team's rocket development to exchanging ideas on liquid rocket engines. I’m incredibly grateful for the advice Simen gave me on my own liquid rocket project and the new applications for satellites that I hadn’t even considered! 🚀    • IAC 2024 🚀 Deep Dive into Rocketry with Si...  

We also looked back on our time at EuRoC 2023, where I had the privilege to be with the Propulse NTNU team on the launchpad before their rocket launch, as well as during the recovery and post-flight review. Being with their team was truly unforgettable. 🙌

In this part of the interview, Simen shares his role at Propulse NTNU and his exciting work with 3D printing for advanced rocket engines at RFA. From tackling challenges like test anomalies to producing parts for staged combustion engines, Simen gives an inside look at what it’s like working in two different rocket teams. 🚀
