  2. ALICE (propellant) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ALICE_(propellant)

    ALICE has been proposed as a propellant well-suited for on-site production on outer space bodies such as the Moon, as both aluminum oxide (a source of aluminum) and water are abundant resources in the universe, while the high propellant density decreases the dry mass of the rocket. Maintaining the propellant in a frozen state is relatively ...

  3. Amateur rocketry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amateur_rocketry

    An appalling accident rate [5] led individuals such as G. Harry Stine and Vernon Estes to make model rocketry a safe and widespread hobby by developing and publishing the National Association of Rocketry Model Rocket Safety Code, and by commercially producing safe, professionally designed and manufactured model rocket motors. Model rocketry by ...

  4. Sodium bicarbonate rocket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_bicarbonate_rocket

    The canister may be embellished with paper fins to resemble more closely a real rocket. [1] Various experiments and lessons can center around the use of a bicarbonate rocket. For example, students are sometimes asked to experiment with the amounts of water and Alka-Seltzer to find the combination which propels the rocket the greatest distance.

  5. Rocket propellant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_propellant

    In the case of solid rocket motors, the fuel and oxidizer are combined when the motor is cast. Propellant combustion occurs inside the motor casing, which must contain the pressures developed. Solid rockets typically have higher thrust, less specific impulse , shorter burn times, and a higher mass than liquid rockets, and additionally cannot be ...

  6. Rocket candy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_candy

    Rocket candy, or R-Candy, is a type of rocket propellant for model rockets made with a form of sugar as a fuel, and containing an oxidizer. The propellant can be divided into three groups of components: the fuel, the oxidizer, and the (optional) additive(s). In the past, sucrose was most commonly used as fuel.

  7. Homemade Astronauts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homemade_Astronauts

    Homemade Astronauts is a television show on Science Channel (Discovery Science USA) and Discovery+ that debuted in 2021. It featured DIY wannabe astronauts, who design and build their own equipment, in an attempt to reach the edge of space.

  8. Gas generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_generator

    A gas generator may create gas by a chemical reaction or from a solid or liquid source, when storing a pressurized gas is undesirable or impractical. The term often refers to a device that uses a rocket propellant to generate large quantities of gas. The gas is typically used to drive a turbine rather than to provide thrust as in a rocket engine.

  9. Archimedes (rocket engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archimedes_(rocket_engine)

    The same day, the Neutron page on Rocket Lab's website was updated specifying the thrust of the nine Archimedes engines used on the first stage as 5,960 kN (1,340,000 lbf) at sea level and a maximum thrust of 7,530 kN (1,690,000 lbf) and the upper stage's single vacuum optimized Archimedes at 1,110 kN (250,000 lbf).
