What will I learn?
This Rocket Propulsion Course provides practical tools to size a small orbital launcher from first principles. Learn orbital mechanics, mission delta-v estimation, thrust and engine count selection, propellant options, stage architecture, and mass budgeting. You also practice documenting assumptions, calculations, and sources so your propulsion choices are clear, defensible, and ready for review.

Develop skills
- Mission delta-v estimation: size LEO missions with realistic loss and margin models.
- Rocket sizing basics: compute thrust, engine count, and T/W for small launchers.
- Propellant and staging choices: compare LOX/RP-1, methane, solids, and hybrids.
- Mass budgeting with rocket equation: derive stage masses from Isp and structure data.
- Technical propulsion notes: document assumptions, sources, and sensitivities clearly.
