University of Waterloo Students Just Broke a Rocket World Record

 Canadian university students just made rocket history!

The University of Waterloo Rocketry Team launched Polaris, a student-built liquid bi-propellant rocket, to an incredible altitude of 63,497 feet — about 19.35 km above Earth. The flight broke the previous world record of 56,590 feet, making Polaris the highest-flying amateur liquid rocket ever launched. The 17-foot rocket was designed and built by students and successfully recovered after its record-breaking flight.
