Professor Manuel Soler, from the Aircraft Operations Lab at UC3M, was recently featured on LGN Medios, where he presented his book “La Astropatrulla Basurilla”. In the interview, he discussed the creative process behind this science-fiction story. A tale designed to raise awareness about space debris while sparking curiosity about aerospace engineering among younger audiences.
During the conversation, Professor Soler also demonstrated how to build and launch a water rocket, showing how science and creativity can come together in fun and educational ways.
In just a couple of weeks, you’ll have the chance to try it yourself! As part of the 2025 Science and Innovation Week, UC3M will host the workshop “Build and Launch Your Own Water Rocket with La Astropatrulla Basurilla” on November 12 at the Leganés Campus.
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn, experiment, and experience the excitement of aerospace engineering firsthand.
✨ Stay tuned for more updates and upcoming activities from the Department of Aerospace Engineering as we continue to share our passion for science and discovery.
