Building a Rocket on Paper: - Please wait, everyone will be opening your envelopes in a minute - Not every rocket design will work... - YOU ARE A ROCKET ENGINEER: You make $70,000.00 a year and you have a masters degree and drive a company Viper
11
Building a Rocket on Paper: 1.)Build a rocket with the right people. You will need… Payload Specialist Thruster Specialist Fuel Expert Structural Engineer
12
Building a Rocket on Paper: 2.)Calculate total mass of your rocket, must include everything. Total mass = mass of fuel+payload+ structure+thrusters
13
Building a Rocket on Paper: 3.)Calculate the thrust needed to lift your rocket off the launch pad Needed thrust = total mass * gravity F = m * a [Newtons, N]) 1 N =1 kg*m/s2 1 pound-force = 4.45 N a=gravity=10 m/s 2
14
Building a Rocket on Paper: 4.)Calculate the total lift (thrust) capability of your rockets thrusters 5.)Does your structure support the total weight of the rocket? 6.)Do you lift off the ground or did you crash and burn? 7.)Could you lift off the surface of the moon? g (moon) = 1/6 g (earth)

Launch Vehicles Past, Present, Future & Sci-Fi Future
21
Outline: -Fine Print -Background & Rocket Types -Past -Present -Future -Sci-Fi Future
22
Rocket Types: -I don’t know everything about Launch Vehicles -I may not be able to answer your questions -This lecture is to expose you to all the different types of launch vehicles -I can quit at any time
23
Background: -Thrust = the force that moves -Impulse = force over period of time -Specific Impulse = Isp = ratio of impulse to fuel used -Higher Isp usually indicates low thrust but very little fuel used -Will learn more in Propulsion Lecture -Rocket Types include: Solid, liquid, hybrid

Saturn V: Can it be built today? - The blue prints still exist, however only on microfilm. - All the subcontractors and suppliers are no longer around. - The technology is old. We can build much smaller and lighter rockets today. Not really… According to Prof. Jesco von Puttkamer, Program Manager of Future Planning at NASA in 1999…
