Turbonique was a company founded in 1962 [1] by Clarence Eugene "Gene" Middlebrooks Jr of Orlando, Florida. [2] Middlebrooks, born 3 August 1931, [3] was a native of Jonesboro, Georgia, had studied mechanical engineering at Georgia Tech and had worked for aerospace contractor Martin-Marietta on the propulsion system for the Pershing missile program.

A thrust curve for a model rocket. A thrust curve, sometimes known as a "performance curve" or "thrust profile" is a graph of the thrust of an engine or motor, (usually a rocket) with respect to time. [1] [2] Most engines do not produce linear thrust (thrust which increases at a constant rate with time).
The intertank thrust beam, mounted with the intertank much higher up on the vehicle, is a single beam, which, in conjunction with the thickened and strengthened bolted structure of the intertank itself, allows the thrust of the solid rocket boosters to be transmitted through the stage.
The following chart shows the number of launch systems developed in each country, and broken down by operational status. Rocket variants are not distinguished; i.e., the Atlas V series is only counted once for all its configurations 401–431, 501–551, 552, and N22.
A rocket's required mass ratio as a function of effective exhaust velocity ratio. The classical rocket equation, or ideal rocket equation is a mathematical equation that describes the motion of vehicles that follow the basic principle of a rocket: a device that can apply acceleration to itself using thrust by expelling part of its mass with high velocity and can thereby move due to the ...
A Soyuz-FG rocket launches from "Gagarin's Start" (Site 1/5), Baikonur Cosmodrome. A rocket (from Italian: rocchetto, lit. ''bobbin/spool'', and so named for its shape) is a vehicle that uses jet propulsion to accelerate without using any surrounding air. A rocket engine produces thrust by reaction to exhaust expelled at
