No, this is not about Beavis rattling the coke machine ..<br />I was digging for some info on solid rocket propellant grains on the web, and found Richard Nakka's very interesting and detailed website here:<br />http://www.nakka-rocketry.net/<br />This man has been flying "sugar" propellant rockets for ages now, the latest very detailed launch report is here.<br /><br />Even more interestingly, there is now an attempt underway with an international and what seems to be a very expert team to go to 100km, i.e. space using rockets based on similar propellants, see:<br />http://www.sugarshot.org/<br /><br />They were aiming for late 2007 launch of their first subscale test article, but apparently missed the deadline judging from the latest project updates.<br /><br />I must say, that for "amateurs" the level of detail in documentation these guys provide on their webpages is amazing. I spent the last hour reading these pages.
