You should have showed the team of scuba divers inserting the 1,500 lb watertight plug attached to an air hose for the dewatering process.

I am presently reading "Challenger: A True Story of Heroism and Disaster on the Edge of Space" by Adam Higgenbotham. I have reached the part during the months leading up to the Challenger launch when various engineers developed serious doubts about the solid rocket booster O-ring seals. (Actually, we should call it the "solid-FUELED rocket booster.") This is a stupendous addition to that tale, with the detailed descriptions of the booster operations -- along with visual portrayals of the equipment. P.S. The solid fuel in the boosters, a combination of mixtures and compounds, had the approximate consistency of a pencil eraser. Just an interesting little factoid.

How come they weren't made in one piece? Would have prevented challenger explosion if made in one piece, no?
@immersiveengineering10 ай бұрын
I think its hard to manufacture and transport a long one piece and it is easy inspect for any issues
@rfarevalo8 ай бұрын
each section must be xrayed for inspection after fuel has hardened.

One contractor did submit designs for single-piece SRBs. The challenges of shipping something that huge to the Cape, plus the cost drove the decision to go with Morton-Thiokol's segmented design.

Are you sure theres is no way of stopping or even throttling it?
@immersiveengineering Жыл бұрын
There is no way to stop them or throttled as far as the ones which are in use.

@immersiveengineering what about sectioning them like rotating cylinders with gaps?

@@mr.ackermann807 You need to take into consideration the temperature of the burning fuel. If you also add cooling then you decrease the volume for fuel and will therefore need longer/bigger rockets to produce the same thrust. Larger rockets with cooling will add a lot of extra weight and therefore more thrust will be needed. The extra thrust will need to come from more fuel…. It a compounding problem where more fuel will be needed at the end and much more money/resources will need to be invested/spent for a single launch. This method of getting things into space is already expensive as it, making it more expensive is suboptimal.
@mr.ackermann807 Жыл бұрын
@alh3328 I already know it is expensive enough as it is. And thank you for reminding me of the temperature, so most metals or alloys would be a problem. The other method that I can think of is stage burning where as 1 finishes it burns the next but the problem again is the temperature plus I think that's technically what happens anyway just not controlled staging burning. I was also aware of the mass to fuel ratio for needing more rockets for better cooling, so ok. I'm still constantly learning and willing to take criticism and advance, so for that thank you for your input.
