Optimum Thrust Programming for a Sounding Rocket
The problem of optimal thrust programming for a sounding rocket of minimum starting weight to reach specified height with given final weight and propellant characteristics is first formulated as a problem in variational calculus. The general solution for

Sounding rocket developments in Spain
Acta Astronautica, 2006Abstract This paper contemplates the efforts and developments in the field of sounding rockets carried out in Spain from the decade of the 1960s to the early 1990s when the use of such vehicles was abandoned worldwide. The initial sounding rocket planning within the National Space Research Programs around 1964 (when Spain joined ESRO) is presented.

Sounding rockets in Antarctica
6th Sounding Rocket Conference, 1982Sounding rockets are versatile tools for scientists studying the atmospheric region which is located above balloon altitudes but below orbital satellite altitudes. Three NASA Nike-Tomahawk sounding rockets were launched from Siple Station in Antarctica in an upper atmosphere physics experiment in the austral summer of 1980-81.

Sound from Apollo Rockets in Space
Science, 1971Low-frequency sound has been recorded on at least two occasions in Bermuda with the passage of Apollo rocket vehicles 188 kilometers aloft. The signals, which are reminiscent of N-waves from sonic booms, are (i) horizontally coherent; (ii) have extremely high (supersonic) trace velocities across the tripartite arrays; (iii) have nearly identical ...

Theory of Flight of the Sounding Rocket
Journal of Applied Mechanics, 1959Abstract Solutions of the equations of motion of vertically ascending rockets (both in power flight and in free flight) are given in closed form. Atmospheric density is assumed to vary exponentially with altitude, and the variation of the drag coefficient of the rocket with Mach number is assumed to follow a definite pattern.

Flight Analysis of the Sounding Rocket
Journal of the Aeronautical Sciences, 1938I ATTEMPTING to reach altitudes above those obtainable by sounding balloons, the rocket motor may be utilized to propel a suitable body. In this analysis a wingless shell of revolution will be considered in vertical flight. It was felt that, before entering into practical experimentation, it was desirable to have a preliminary performance analysis ...
