An Imperial College London team launched the Nebula rocket on a test flight on Saturday.
Nebula's nose cone separated earlier than planned and parachutes intended to bring it down to earth gently did not deploy properly.
However, operations lead Dyuti Chakraborty, 19, said the team gathered important data about how the rocket functioned."We've been on this rocket for a very long time and for many of us it's our first rocket that we've ever designed or made.Around 50 students are involved in the project. They plan to cross the Karman line with future versions of the Nebula by 2024.
