Is "Rocket Science" simply how to construct a rocket? I thought it was so much more then that!?

Answer 1

Kind of like asking if "Brain Surgery" is simply how to access the brain through a hole in the skull.

"Rocket Science" involves extremely difficult and laborious mathematical calculations - and knowledge in numerous fields of physics, metallurgy, aerodynamics, jet propulsion and other facets of science - hence, the saying, "It ain't rocket science, ya know!"

Answer 2

I don't think rocket science includes construction.

Rocket science covers materials science, ballistics, and astrophysics. More generally speaking, it's about a little chemistry and.a ton of physics. The environmental engineers at NASA also like to think they are rocket scientists.

At our current level of rocket science, we are able to land humans on Mars. It has not been done yet of course, but the plans are there. Think about the total design effort that goes in to something like that. That's rocket science.

Answer 3

There actually is no such topic as "Rocket Science". The Phrase "It isn't rocket science" was drempt up to make mere mortals feel inadequate by teachers and professors, to make you feel stupid when you don't understand some "simple" concept in science.

Actually anyone who uses that phrase is simply exposing their own insecurity. Next time soneone uses that phrase on you, your comback should be "Can you please explain what Rocket Science IS."

Answer 4

Actually rocket science is pretty simple just ask Isaac Newton.

Rocket engineering is where the real difficulty comes in.

Answer 5

Rockets are out buddy, Its now antigrav via many methods, fusion fielded, matrix harmonic resonnator , element 15 forced decay, dimensional phasing (very difficult wih current availble technology), high gravity manipulation via dense gravometric compounds (like neutron or whit dwarf material, black hole manipulation).

For low power consumption for planet bound travel there are more methods (microwave hydgroen thrusters, works better than existing fuel jet systems-since much more explosive-) as water is used no polution is made) the key here is to use special microwave resonnat chambers that cause water to seperate at an extrem high rate to gas and then used as thrust for jet or engine in car, I think I've said enough but there is lots more!

Cheers

Answer 6

It is the science that keeps those rockets from blowing up or not taking off.

Answer 7

Yeah all of the above but if you build a square rocket it is not gonna go very far. There is aerodynamics also involved.

Answer 8

i'm unsure that they are going to completely putter out, yet i think of they are going to come backtrack to earth surely. i think of they peaked too early and could be observing a 1st around go out in the playoffs. Many communities which comprise final year's Dallas, or the previous season's Detroit went on loopy surges in the direction of the season, yet could no longer carry out on the comparable point in the playoffs. It takes an wonderful volume of actual and emotional potential to maintain triumphing each and every night like that and from time to time communities get burned out. i think of Popovich's way of working San Antonio is wiser. Play it relax throughout the time of the 1st 0.5 of the season, tinker inclusive of your lineup, and initiate revving it up in the 2d 0.5 (inspite of the undeniable fact that admittedly, SA has had some tough spots those days...yet that's what Pop many times tries to do).

Answer 9

lol. its about how to get the rocket off the gound and how to keep it off the ground. basically, its physics.

Answer 10

how to buld, launch and get a rocket to where you need it to be and back again isn't easy
