Guiding Question

•How can NASA fortify their rockets to travel further into space?

Big Problem

Fuel is a big problem in rockets because it has prevented NASA from gathering enough information to sustain a fantastic propellant that is easy and can change rocket travel forever.

Dictionary Definition For Problem Word• Fuel: a substance that can be consumed to

produce energy

Brainstorming

• attempt to have a mother rocket nursing the rocket as it sets on a journey

• A universal fuel station

• a solar panel

• Combine all the administrators of fantastic space programs all over the world

A Rocket Diagram

Variations of Fuel Capable of Powering a Rocket

Section 1

• Solar sail: a form of fuel that operates on radiation from a star

• Ice and metal (environmentallyfriendly and will encourage further distances)

Add a grinder to the rocket and grind up plutonic rocks for fuel

Result-More fuel possibilities enhances opportunity of better fuel

A More Superb Main EngineSection 2

• Additional overhauls to improve safety

• High tech opticals and vibration sensors will recognize danger before it occurs

• Combustion chamber will enlarge to reduce on internal components without reducing the thrust

Result-Safer main engines will subtract worry in that aspect and

have more time to focus on other problems like further distances

Smaller Fuel TankSection 3

• More than 17,500 pounds lighter than the original tank

• 30% stronger

• Able to maintain same amount of fuel

Result-Less pressure on rocket during long travel

Solid Rocket and External Tank UpgradesSection 4

• Redesign valves, filters, and seals in steering section

• Changes to rocket propellant make technician work safer

• External tank will grasp a new friction-stir

Result- a terrific lift off can start the long journey greatly and

construct the aircraft well so the rocket may travel a LONG DISTANCE

Dream TeamIdea Section

• NASA administrator, Frank Bolden, CNSA administrator, Sun Laiyan, and POCOCMOC administrator, Anatoly Perminov should combine their minds and create something

Result-

Tons of great minds can construct something that everyone else thought was only a dream (research shows more people can create better ideas and also there is a saying “The more the merrier.”)

Lighter Metal for RocketsIdea Section

• NASA should use lighter metal

• If rockets have less mass then they would accelerate faster

• Newton’s Second Law says an object with less mass will accelerate faster than an object with more mass

Pros and Cons of Solution

ProsUpgraded rocket technologyBranched out; more than oneSolution results strictly relate to guiding questionPart of it is new and unknown

ConsCosts a ton of moneyChance it won’t workNew to astronautsSmaller rocket; more risk to damage if colliding with space dangers

Constructive Solution

• In this project the solution found was between the lines

• All four sections (not including the idea section) create a solution in themselves

• The more high tech the rocket is the better it will travel in space

• This solution was like bricks. You can’t build a house without them
