Introduces rocketry, the history of spaceflight, and the Newton's laws that make a rocket work.
Breaks down the parts of a rocket and what each one is for.
Explores solid, liquid and hybrid rocket propulsion, and what comes after chemical rockets.
Covers thrust, mass, thrust-to-weight ratio, staging and specific impulse.
Explains the aerodynamic forces on a rocket and how its shape is designed for a fast, stable flight.
Covers Bernoulli's principle, the de Laval nozzle, and how rocket flow moves from subsonic to hypersonic.
Explains center of mass, center of pressure, and how fin placement keeps a rocket stable in flight.
Walks through a rocket's flight phases, trajectory, and orbit insertion.
Introduces the sensors, avionics and telemetry systems that fly aboard a rocket.
Covers the causes of rocket failure, and what engineering learns from them.
