Recently, I’ve been working on what materials we should use for O-rings inside our propellant tanks in my rocket club on campus. We’re building a bi-propellant rocket using IPA (isopropyl alcohol) and nitrous oxide (N2O). There are some of the notes I made trying to understand how a pressure vessel, essentially the tanks housing the … Continue reading Materials In Rocketry
As part of the IBDP curriculum, in high school, I got the chance to write a research paper about a topic of my choosing (with so many restrictions I still have PTSD from it because I couldn’t do a lot of what I wanted to lol), but I managed to find a topic that interested … Continue reading Solar Panel Power Output

The best way to learn about more of these is to read the paper I’ve written outlining the context, physics, and logic … Continue reading Rocket Propulsion Engineering
