Launching Saturn Vehicles

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1967
<div class="htmlview paragraph">The preparation of necessary facilities, the checkout and the launch of an Apollo/Saturn V vehicle is probably one of the most complicated and intricate single operation of our times. It is an orderly outgrowth of the firing many years ago of the first rocket propelled vehicle.

Aerodynamics of Launch Vehicles

2015
Aerodynamics plays a vital role in STS design process. The steady and unsteady aerodynamic loads generated due to the relative motion between vehicle body and surrounding air during the atmospheric flight phase of the vehicle, its aerodynamic characteristics, external environment and flow characteristics are the major inputs for the vehicle systems ...

Spacecraft and Launch Vehicles

2017
The term ‘spaceport’ encompasses a broad variety of facilities (Fig. 5.1). Some spaceports are used to launch large rockets into Earth orbit, some of which carry their payloads into deep space while others carry probes and yet others ferry cargo and/or astronauts. Then there are spaceports that have been developed for launching jet-like spacecraft from

An Air-Launched Low-Cost Launch Vehicle

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2005
The QuickReach concept is a responsive, mobile, air‐launched, two‐stage liquid pressure‐fed rocket that is capable of placing nearly 2,000 pounds into low earth orbit. The rocket is extracted from a transport aircraft using gravity and a small drogue parachute for orientation stabilization.
