Innovative Sounding Rocket Design and Calculations - 20/03/2024 14:50 EDT

I'm seeking the expertise of a skilled aeronautical engineer with experience in designing sounding rockets. The successful applicant will be required to carry out specific computations and design aspects which include:

- Fin size calculations to ensure rocket stability during flight
- Determining thrust to effectively propel the rocket against gravitational forces
- Motor impulse calculations for determining the rocket's acceleration and flight time

An important part of this project is achieving an altitude of 275,000 feet. This substantial height necessitates accurate and professional level computations.

The rocket must also have a payload capacity of up to 10 kg. This presents an engineering challenge that the successful applicant should be eager to undertake.

The right candidate for this job will have a deep understanding of aeronautical principles and a proven track record in rocket design and construction. Familiarity with standard aerospace software packages is a must. Experience in high altitude rocket design will be highly advantageous.
