It’s Not Rocket Science was born out of the outreach work of Christchurch Rocketeers, created to bring hands-on aerospace education to a wider audience. Building on years of successful community programmes, it delivers high-energy workshops and supports initiatives such as the Aotearoa Aerospace Academy space camps—giving students the opportunity to design, build, and launch their own rockets.
Alongside its workshops, It’s Not Rocket Science develops and supplies educational aerospace resources, including rocket kits, astronomy posters, and detailed scale models of rockets, landers, and satellites—making space more accessible, tangible, and inspiring for the next generation.
