In the event of a 'catastrophic unscheduled disassembly', there will be parts of a given launch vehicle that could be salvaged and potentially reused on a new launch vehicle (given that its deemed flight-worthy), or be processed and sold for scrap. We can also take the scraps from a given CNC machine or Lathes, sort between the different metals (Most likely aluminum and steel), reprocess them to be reused for launch stands, thrust deflectors, and other uses in our local community. All in all, reusing any scrap can help our environmental impact, aid ourselves in our fundraising efforts, help positively impact our local community, and most importantly help us use our materials more efficiently and sustainably.

Sources of interest

Unscheduled disassembly/E-Waste

  • The parts of the doomed vehicle will need to be used for investigative purposes. Only after this investigation could it be taken apart and parts salvaged.
  • Parts of value (In order of value)
    • Circuit boards, computer boards (For Gold) [Can also be sourced from E-Waste]
    • Wires (Copper)
    • Kevlar shock cords
    • Metal Parts (Aluminum, steel, etc.)
    • Motor parts (Be careful)
    • Nuts, bolts, etc.

CNC/Machining Scrap

  • Aluminum shavings
