Project Prometheus - General Member Jan. '21 - Present
As a general member of Project Prometheus, I have had the experience of manufacturing and test firing 54mm BATES grain solid motors in a lab setting while in a safe and effective manner. Project Prometheus takes pride in its safety culture, because of this, I have gained valuable insight and practices regarding environmental and personal safety measures when handling hazardous chemicals. In addition, I have had the experience of writing, reviewing, and following standard operating procedures (SOPs) for propellant mixing and hot firing. With the data collected from a load cell used in the hot fires, the thrust curves of motors were analyzed to determine the maximum amount of thrust produced, if there were any defects in the motors, or where we could improve in the development or testing phase.
