PH’s TALA high-power hybrid rocket launched

PH-TALA-high-power-hybrid-rocket

The Philippines has taken a step toward rocket science as it successfully launched TALA—the country’s first-ever high-powered hybrid rocket—on the Crow Valley Gunnery Range, Capas, Tarlac at 11:57 AM, Saturday.

A hybrid by design, TALA runs on both liquid oxidizer and solid fuel, which renders its shipping, handling, and storage a lot less hazardous. Further, the building of the rocket is significantly cheaper as well.

The project is viewed as a catalyst for space science and technology applications research for the subsequent creation and innovation of our space assets for space-related exploration, research, and commerce.

The liftoff led to the deployment of the Can Satellite payload, which is soon followed by a rapid descent and release of the main parachute to cushion the fall.

With TALA having successfully landed and retrieved, the rocketry team of TALA is now mobilized to gather and analyze the launch data to pinpoint the rocket’s flight information.

Established in 2018, TALA was built from the ground up under the Young Innovators Program of the Philippine Council for Industry, Energy, and Emerging Technology Research and Development (DOST-PCIEERD) by the alumnus of St. Cecilia’s College – Cebu.

Making the project a possibility is through the collaboration of the government and the military, namely the Philippine Space Agency (PhilSA) alongside the Philippine Air Force of the Colonel Ernesto Ravina Air Base, Air Force Systems Engineering Office, the 710th Special Operations Wing, Air Force Research and Development Center, the 790th Air Base Groups, 950th Cyberspace and Electronic Warfare Wing, Air Force Systems Engineering Office, and Air Force Public Affairs Office.
