Innovation often begins with one bold experiment. On March 16, 1926, Robert H. Goddard ’08 launched the first successful liquid-fueled rocket—an achievement that changed the future of space exploration. This National Goddard Day, we honor the visionary engineer and Worcester Polytechnic Institute alumnus whose work helped launch the modern space age. 🚀

A 2.5-second rocket flight that heralded decades of discovery in space! Today marks 100 years since the first successful test of a liquid-fueled rocket. Robert H. Goddard's achievement would have appeared unimpressive by most measures: His rocket flew just 41 feet in the air, landing in a nearby cabbage patch. Liquid-propelled rocketry has been the backbone of spaceflight ever since. 📷 by Esther Goddard on March 16, 1926 (Clark University Archive)

100 years ago today, Robert H. Goddard stood in a snowy field in Auburn, Massachusetts, and changed the course of human history. On March 16, 1926, his 10-foot rocket lifted off the ground for 2.5 seconds, reaching 41 feet in the air.
