Our Mission

The Triton Astronautics Research Systems (TARS) Group was founded with the mission to empower UC San Diego students from all disciplines to engineer spacecraft that advance the frontiers of space exploration. We aim to bridge the gap between academia and industry, providing students with hands-on, project-based experiences with high-altitude ballooning, CanSats, and CubeSats.
