Hi!

My name is Emma Oberlé, I am from France. I am currently a second-year student in aeronautical engineering, and I am the head of the propulsion department for the year 2025-2026.
Since my youngest age, I have been fascinated by rockets, aircraft which led me to study in the aeronautical field. Being part of Aquilo is for me an incredible opportunity to increase my knowledge in the field of rocketry and I hope to contribute to inspiring the next generation of space enthusiasts.
This year, my department and I will focus on making AQUILO IX rocket ready for EUROC 2026 through testing the propellant and finalizing documentation – work that would not be possible without the support of our sponsors and previous heads of the department. In parallel, we will also work on liquid propulsion systems through research, design, and manufacturing. In my role, I also value the importance of teamwork and leadership, and I am happy to distribute tasks among members to ensure that everyone is participating in our goals. My team and I look forward to pushing the boundaries of our department and contributing to the success of Aquilo Rocket Team.
