Overview
Overview
The 6th Latin American Space Challenge will be composed of two challenges: the Rocket Challenge and the Satellite Challenge. The main objective of LASC is to maximize the teams that develop satellites to fly on its sounding rockets. The event will take place in the region o Bauru and Iacanga, near São Paulo city in Brazil.
