| Popis: |
The North Star Rocket Family is a family of rockets based on hybrid rocket motors clustered together to form 2- stage sounding rockets for scientific research. Two sizes of 2-stage sounding rockets are planned and together these “launcher elements” form the basis for a small launcher. The initial version of the small launcher will be able to serve the market for dedicated launches of 20-25kg into a 250-350km SSO orbit. This market will be extremely cost sensitive and is seen as the low end of the space market. It is crucial for the concept that the component cost is kept low enough. “Space qualified” components are not likely to fit into this model. |
