Description


This is a unique opportunity to hear about British Rocket Technology and get your hands on real hardware and ask questions about it.

There will be a short presentation on British rocket tech starting in c. 1800 and finishing at c. 1945. This will be followed by an opportunity to view, discuss and ask questions about the various items of rocket technology which will be on display.

Of particular interest are various items manufactured in highly heat resistant materials - the image above gives some idea of the temperatures attained in some of the liquid fuel rocket motors under consideration.

The event agenda is as follows:
18:30 Refreshments available
19:00 Talk commences
20:30 Closing remarks by Worcester Area Chairman

Speaker(s)

Mark Perman has spent his entire career working on rockets, first at RPE Westcott developing liquid fuelled rocket motors and later at Roxel Summerfield. He was a founder member of the UK Rocketry Association and is a member of the British Interplanetary Society.
