Mars One is sending a rocket with four people in it to Mars in 2022. The mission to Mars takes six months of travel! The trip to Mars is extremely dangerous because one wrong move can easily result in death‚ the rocket will be more than one hundred billion dollars‚ and there are robots that will be picking up information for Mars One. Cosmic radiation doesn’t allow a trip back to earth. It consists of photons (energy about 2.78 Kelvin). On top of those are higher energy particles that are being

The Blue Machinery of Summer – Yusef Komunyakaa The central conflict is that he does not feel the same since he has come back from Vietnam. I would say there are two instances that he best describes this problem. "I still hadn’t told her I felt I’d left part of myself in her country." (88) Another moment was at the very end when he imagines the faces of the dead from Vietnam on his way to L.A. I think that the whole story builds up suspense by the way he dances around the problem and never talks

we want it to detach on our way back and used winglets because it makes best landing‚ they are light‚ and they will not band or fall off. After that we added decoupler to the bottom of our rocket. Then we moved three radial decouplers one stage up and moved liquid engine one stage down. So if we detach the rocket the wings will not fall off and engine would be already activated. Next we added tri-coupler and to that we stacked three sets of fuel tanks and underneath that we put LV-T45 liquid engine

Rocket Propelled Grenades It was early morning the sun was peeking over the horizon. The military helicopter was cruising at about 200 feet air to ground level‚ departing a river valley base in Afghanistan. Everything seemed routine until a loud bang occurred and the helicopter yawed to the right. As the crew chief looked back‚ there was a huge hole on the left sponson with the sun rays making its was into the cabin. With a quick assessment from pilots and crew‚ the conclusion was made

Extended Investigation | Liam Hallam Cameron Martin | Bottle Rockets | Table of Contents This extended investigation serves to examine and evaluate the physical forces that affect the flight of a bottle rocket. This will be accomplished by altering the water levels and the level of air pressure (psi) within the rocket will be altered‚ and tested‚ to further understand the mechanics of bottle rockets. Introduction Rocket flight has long been at the forefront of the human race’s exploration

Before baseline 11-10 launches‚ the distance rocket traveled 6.73m and weighed 1.12 grams and the seconds rocket went .92 seconds and weighed .95 grams. By adding some cardstock for fins and taking off my clay and replacing it with tape it went quite a bit further and it went quite a bit faster‚ the weight was .93 grams. With the weight taken off‚ the rocket went 1.796 m farther. For the baseline launches‚ the distance average was 7.465m and .91 seconds and for the height the average was 2

A rocket is a machine that develops thrust by the rapid expulsion of matter. The major components of a chemical rocket assembly are a rocket motor or engine‚ propellant consisting of fuel and an oxidizer‚ a frame to hold the components‚ control systems and a cargo such as a satellite. A rocket differs from other engines in that it carries its fuel and oxidizer internally‚ therefore it will burn in the vacuum of space as well as within the Earth’s atmosphere. The cargo is commonly referred to as the

7 Lab:Pop Rockets 1. List and explain two ways that you could improve the flight performance of your rocket. Your responses must consider the materials you had available to work with. The rocket I produced was a normal looking rocket compared to the group of rockets I was working with. It was medium size in length and thickness. The head of the rocket was a little wide and lose‚ and the flaps were not arrow dynamic what so ever. To improve the flight I could have made my rocket shorter and
