Titus was derived from the initial two stages of the Bérénice test vehicle. [2] [4]The first stage, weighing 1935 kg, used a SEPR-739-2 Stromboli solid rocket motor with 1245 kg of Plastolane propellant with a 20-second burn time.
Las Palmas (also mentioned as Lapachito and Chaco) [1] is a rocket launch site in Argentina at used on November 12, 1966, [2] for the launch of two Titus rockets [3] for observing a solar eclipse
Pakistan's sounding rocket program used a variety of sounding rockets which were renamed in 3 series. Some flights were not given a Pakistani designation. Sounding rockets were flown from the Sonmiani Rocket Range. [247] [248] [249] Centaure (a.k.a. Rehbar, Rehnuma, Shahpar) [108] Dragon (a.k.a. Shahpar) [116] Judi-Dart (a.k.a. Rehbar, Rehnuma ...
The ALCO RS-3m is a diesel-electric locomotive rebuilt from an ALCO RS-3 road switcher.These 98 locomotives were rebuilt to replace their original ALCO prime mover with the more reliable EMD 567B engine and fan assemblies taken from retired E8s. [1]
The designation for a specific motor looks like C6-3.In this example, the letter (C) represents the total impulse range of the motor, the number (6) before the dash represents the average thrust in newtons, and the number (3) after the dash represents the delay in seconds from propelling charge burnout to the firing of the ejection charge (a gas generator composition, usually black powder ...

The RS-68 (Rocket System-68) was a liquid-fuel rocket engine that used liquid hydrogen (LH 2) and liquid oxygen (LOX) as propellants in a gas-generator cycle. It was the largest hydrogen-fueled rocket engine ever flown. [3] Designed and manufactured in the United States by Rocketdyne (later Pratt & Whitney Rocketdyne and Aerojet Rocketdyne).
The Rocketdyne S-3D (Air Force designation LR79) [1] [2] is an American liquid rocket engine produced by Rocketdyne (a division of North American Aviation) between 1956 and 1961. It was a gas generator, pump-fed engine, using a liquid oxygen ( LOX ) and RP-1 (kerosene) propellant combination, capable of producing 134908 pounds of thrust (600.1 ...
