Abstract

Effect of rocket and launcher design parameters on the maximum height obtainable in vertical flight. Comparison of costs for single‐ and two‐stage rockets. If efficiencies of around 100,000 ft./lb. payload/lb. propellent can be realized in practice, small solid propellent rockets should prove economical for routine meterological use.
