Tory's small-scale multi-engine rocket was relatively stable, while Grant's small-scale single-engine, half-cage design flew erratically and almost crashed into the crew. For the full-scale test, they decided to use Tory's rocket shape but with only one engine for safety ...

The myth was only deemed plausible due to Tory's test results and the small sample size.
