University of Maryland wins world's largest college rocketry competition

A large group of people is gathered outside by a road for a photo. People in the front few rows are wearing blue. In the back rows, which number more than a dozen, many flags on poles are being held up, but they lay flat without wind.

The world's largest intercollegiate rocketry competition ends this year's tournament with a record-setting number of teams competing from around the world.

122 teams, composed of thousands of students at colleges and universities globally, traveled to southern New Mexico to compete in the Spaceport America Cup from June 17-22.
