Who’s Robert Goddard? Robert H. Goddard, widely regarded as the father of modern rocketry, made history on March 16, 1926, with the first successful liquid‑fueled rocket launch, a breakthrough that paved the way for space exploration.

🚀 Celebrate 100 years since Goddard’s first rocket launch! Send up your rocket anytime March 16–22 to earn 200 miles for your team. Share your launch and tag us with #ARC2026 and #Goddard100Launch so we can celebrate with you! These launches do not need to be your Qualification Flights for competition.
