Earthrise is about YOU, the Rocketeer!

Earthrise is the voice and heart of the CAR/ACF membership; it is a publication highlighting what’s going on in the world of rocketry right here in Canada.

Currently, Earthrise is published two times per year.  As such, I am always on the lookout for articles and/or photos pertaining to CAR/ACF activities.  Article ideas might include coverage of launches, how-to articles, rocketry experiences, rocketry research, new products and product reviews, rocketry building threads, special projects, rocketry news, club spotlights, and so on.  You don’t have to be a polished writer to put something together.  Each and every article/photo is a story.  People want to hear/see your stories! 

What I look for is content almost solely based on CAR/ACF activities.  If you’re a CAR/ACF affiliated club, that means you’re most certainly included in acceptable activities to get published.  I like to keep the national membership apprised of the many major launches occurring across Canada throughout the year.  In fact, Edmonton Rocketry Club puts together awesome posters for their major launches, such as Fire & Ice.  Earthrise would be a perfect medium to share that kind of information.

Advertising is also available within the pages of Earthrise.  Inquire at the email address below for more information.

If you have any questions or inquiries about Earthrise, or wish to electronically submit an article and/or photos, please feel free to contact me at earthrise@canadianrocketry.org.  I look forward to hearing about what’s going on in your world of rocketry!
