ATK, NASA unveil new rocket

[cfb36]

lame thought it was going to be a test fire

This engine uses Este's letter "Y" at your local hobby store. Solid rocket fuel is the most dumb-ed down type of fuel. Even know computers and software have advanced. Actual rocket hardware has gone backwards since the 60's.

ATK = Morton Thiokol.  I sure hope this one doesn't blow up too!

@fusionstar916 Nice racism.

Also, chemical rockets are inefficient.

I hated his decision at first too, but now I realize it was a smart one.

@AgrivatedKillah

Everything is inefficient, even anti-matter annihilation. What do you propose instead?

[AgrivatedKillah]

@marmaladekamikaze Anything is better than chemical rockets..rather use ion drives... or things like VASIMR.

I rather have NASA on the ground, developing new technology that'll be worth while when it does come into fruition(and trust me, something will) than fly a thousand times a year using the same old technology..without any innovations being made.

Ion and plasma ronkets are only good in space. Their impulsion is way too low to overcome Earth's Gravity.
