Generating Concepts

For this part of the engineering design process, we thought through many different rocket designs that would safely and successfully launch, as well as deploy an escape module. Some ideas we considered included:

  • Having the engine exposed at the bottom in a one-inch tube, while the escape module was in a larger tube above that

  • Having the engine above the escape module and have that somehow deploy

  • Having the engine in the smaller one-inch tube, inside of the 2.75 inch tube, while the parachute was above that and would be pushed out by pressure built up by the engine
