To Feature Solid Fuel Rocket
A two-stage fuel rocket
will be one of the displays
to be exhibited Thursday at
the annual Engineer's Open
House.
The College of Engineering
and Architecture will put on
the display for an expected
5,000 to 10,000 spectators from
2 p.m. to 10 p.m. High school
science classes from through
out Nebraska are expected to
attend.
24-Mile Range
The rocket carrying a trans
mitter in its nose and cap
able of traveling 25 miles
into the atmosphere, was de-!
signed by Leroy Krzycki of
Columbus. Launching date
for the rocket is set some
time this summer.
Both stages are fired elec
trically, the second stage
about 3 seconds after the rock
et leaves the ground and
reaches an altitude of 2,000
feet. The transmitter, design
ed by Richard Eklund of Fre
mont, will transmit back to
earth the temperature and
altitude. v
