Payload

The Ramblin' Rocketeers will design, build, test, and fly an electromagnetically levitated plate within their rocket. This plate will be stabilized against the motion of the rocket providing a vibration-free environment for the payload in an experiment known as A.P.E.S., or Active Platform Electromagnetic Stabilization.
