There is only 1 month left to register for the 2009 Team America Rocketry Challenge (TARC)! Thousands of students compete each year for $60,000 in cash and scholarships.  This year's winning team will also win a trip to the international air show in Paris!

The contest is open to teams of three to ten students in grades 7-12.  Students must design, build and fly a model rocket to carry one raw egg for a precise flight duration of 45 seconds and to an exact altitude of 750 feet.

To be eligible for the national fly-off, teams must fly a qualifying flight observed by an adult member of the National Association of Rocketry. The top-scoring 100 teams in the country will be invited to participate in the final fly-off to be held in May 2009.

Participation is limited to the first 750 teams who register by Dec. 1, 2008 so register now! For more information, visit http://www.rocketcontest.org.
