Aerospace engineering, or rocket science, is just one of many engineering disciplines that make use of collaboration with technical communicators to provide a comprehensive overview of any engineering project, old or new. For my honors project, I explored multiple aspects of being a technical communicator that collaborates with an all-engineer team to produce effective technical communication. The Cyclone Student Launch Initiative (CySLI) gladly accepted my offer to assist them with their NASA competition documents while I worked on my project. In exchange, I gained the technical background required to produce three forms of technical communication about rocket science at Iowa State: a brochure, a newsletter, and a technical description. The brochure is designed to reach out to middle school students who may be interested in model or high-powered rocketry. The newsletter is meant to inform CySLI team sponsors and program coordinators of events that occurred during CySLI’s competition year. Finally, the technical description provides a condensed design overview of the 2016-2017 rocket and provides information about NASA’s Student Launch challenge. Through working with these engineers, I gained a better understanding of how collaborative processes function in technical communication and had the experience of a lifetime building a true rocket.
