Model rocketry is a safe and widespread hobby. Individuals such as G. Harry Stine and Vernon Estes helped to ensure this by developing and publishing the NAR Model Rocket Safety Codes [1] [13] [14] and by commercially producing safe, professionally designed and manufactured model rocket motors.
High-power rocket liftoff. Any model rocket using a single motor greater than 160 Newton-seconds of total impulse, or multiple motors with a total thrust of 320 Newton-seconds, is propelled by a combination of motors having a total of more than 125 grams (4.4 oz) of propellant weight, or weighs more than 1,500 grams (53 ounces) with motors ...
The designation for a specific motor looks like C6-3.In this example, the letter (C) represents the total impulse range of the motor, the number (6) before the dash represents the average thrust in newtons, and the number (3) after the dash represents the delay in seconds from propelling charge burnout to the firing of the ejection charge (a gas generator composition, usually black powder ...
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 ...

Harvard tied with Dartmouth and Columbia atop the conference at 5-2 this season, but scored head-to-head wins over both teams. Officially, the Ivy League recognized all three teams as co-champions.
For this study, researchers used an animal model of cancer tumors. During the study, the animals were fed a diet rich in fructose. “It has been well established for over a century that cancer ...
A model rocket is a small rocket designed to reach low altitudes (e.g., 100–500 m (330–1,640 ft) for 30 g (1.1 oz) model) and be recovered by a variety of means. According to the United States National Association of Rocketry (nar) Safety Code, [54] model rockets are constructed of paper, wood, plastic and other lightweight materials. The ...
