Jonathan from iTrends.dk gave us the heads up about a Denmark team who is building the Worlds most Powerful Private Rocket. Their goal is to send a person into space! Sounds like a blast, but I’m not sure I would want to be the first one to test it out. “This is a non-profit suborbital space endeavor, based entirely on sponsors and volunteers.

pretty wicked!

massive! but not very accurate, the burn rate varies alot, the burn is everything else than static and so must be the thrust. maybe it needs some rethinking, especially concerning the nozzle and the array and form of the propellant.

@Chris: I know next to nothing about rocketry, but isn’t the ability to adjust thrust and direction important? Just purely a guess, but maybe they’re testing those capabilities?

Hi. I have been reading a bit about theese guys on a danish engineering site.. there was a problem during test, with their solid part of the rocket booster, which didn’t hold up quite as good as they hoped, so they are trying to fix that at the moment and are plannning another fullscale test.
But it deffinetly makes a geek like me a bit proud to be danish….

Wulff -> That was one of the earlier tests, where the rocket burned thru the casing. That is now fixed – and the latest test went as planned.

They’ve got a lot to learn about reentry – the clear dome is apparently the leading surface during reentry and should disintegrate almost immediately – also the pilot is going to be descending in a head-down attitude which may render him unconscious. If the reentry is going to be “feet first”, they’ll need to find a way to dependably eject the lower heat shield so the drogue can deploy (whipping the pilot around to a head-down attitude as the chute opens).

@Inventorjack
yes that’s true for complex rocket engines like the space shuttle glider. Simple solid stage rockets do not ajdust the vector of thrus (except maybe the IRIS-T and the new AIM-9x Sidewinder air to air missiles – but these are very complex systems) and certainly the burn rate of solid propellants can not be varied. Once ignited they just.. well.. burn to death

how can it be a rocket if it doesn’t fly, is like my radio that everything works is just doesn’t have sound.

MadScott, it´s a suborbital flight, heat will probably not be a problem. The shuttle will never leave the atmosphere. Aerodynamic heating starts to become a problem in very high speeds, like mach 1.5+. Look close at the “sequence drawing”, or fig 4. The shuttle will touchdown with the astronauts feets down, although the parachute is stored in the rear.

MadScott –> The dome will NOT be the head down when descending. It will be bottom first, slightly tipped – for higher air resistance.

uumm… just curious….
can’t the rocket be made a lil lighter, taken to the edge of atmosphere using balloons(helium or whatever) and then launched?
That could save some money and be simple to construct???

Maybe this just isn’t in the drawings, but shouldn’t there be some sort of Oxygen Supply in there???? I hope the test it with something other than a live person first…..
