BristolSEDS is the society for all students of all courses who are interested in all forms of space exploration, a career in the Space Industry, technical space-based projects, or simply enjoy being around like-minded space-loving people. SEDS stands for Students for the Exploration and Development of Space - its a bit of a mouthful, we know!

Some of our activities and achievements include:

• UKSEDS National Rocketry Championship (which we won last year!)
• UKSEDS Satellite Design Competition at Airbus D&S in Stevenage (which we won last year!)
• UKSEDS Olympus Rover Trials at RAL Space and Airbus D&S
• UKSEDS In-Orbit Service and Manufacturing (IOSM) at the Satellite Applications Catapult in Westcott
• Mach24 at Machrihanish Airbase in Scotland (which we won last year!)
• UK Student Thrust Record January 2025
• Race to Space Rocket Propulsion Competition
• National Student Space Conference 2023 (which we hosted)
• Coding and Electronics Workshop
• OpenRocket (Rocketry Aerodynamic Modelling) Workshop
• Non-alcoholic Socials
• Film Nights
• Volunteered for the UK Space Design Competition in Cardiff
• Volunteered for the British Interplanetary Society's Reinventing Space Conference at Aerospace Bristol
• and so much more!

As the Bristol branch of UKSEDS we represent all students who have an interest in and enthusiasm for space. The society is open to everyone from the University with a diverse range of courses represented (so many more than Aerospace Engineering!); you don't need any prior knowledge or experience!
