Welcome to the rocket science website.
This website was created as an educational
resource for rocketry and space enthusiasts.
The rocket
science section contains articles on the
physics of rocketry, together with material
to explain such issues as radio propagation
from rockets and wind dispersal. Its the
areas where I'll continue to post papers on
rocketry subjects.
Course
notes contains the notes for a short courses
that I give on satellite communications. The
courses are aimed
at undergraduates or professionals wishing to
understand the principles of this facinating
subject.
I have a number of ongoing and completed
rocketry projects,
details of which can be found on this website.
My interest in rocketry includes building
and launching model and high power rockets.
Photos of some of my rockets can be found
on this site.
I've added some useful links
to other rocketry sites, vendors, useful educational
sites, and other sites that interest me, together
with a bibliography
of textbooks that were useful in creating this
site.
No website would be
complete without a few photos,
so I've included some pictures of places, people
and rockets.
I hope you enjoy browsing the site. If
so, then please feel free to contact
me. If you find any
errors please get in touch so I can correct
it.
