Balls 2006 Scale Engine Test

  • warning: date(): It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'America/New_York' for 'EST/-5.0/no DST' instead in /usr/share/drupal-5.20/modules/event/event.module on line 1840.

Dave conducted the first (of probably many) scale engine test. This test used a 54mm engine case with an oak nozzle designed to ablate and reduce nozzle pressure as the propellant burns. The core is Dave's Black propellant in a single C grain. Attached is a must see video of this static test. This video is affectionately titled "The little engine that could".
