Last month, I shared some exciting news about the pioneering efforts of the student engineers at the University of Southern California's Rocket Propulsion Laboratory (USC-RPL). As promised, here's an update on their latest efforts.

 

On February 27, 2016 the USC-RPL completed their re-flight testing of the aptly named Déjà Vu rocket. This time, it reaching an altitude of 26,800 feet at a maximum speed of Mach 1.7! Congrats to the entire team at USC-RPL!
