The Tyranny of the Rocket Equation (Encore)


Listen Later

In 1897, the visionary Russian rocket scientist Konstantin Tsiolkovsky discovered an equation that governed how rockets worked. 

His equation, which was independently discovered by several other rocket scientists, immutably governs how we can send rockets into space. 

The variables in his equation have determined everything surrounding spaceflight and rocketry since its inception and will for the foreseeable future. 

Learn more about the Tyranny of the Rocket Equation on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
