Rockets Propel German Car In Trailblazing Rocket Car Test
Detroit officials report on a German rocket car that uses a series of 12 rockets in the rear to propel a motorless racing vehicle. The car, tested near Russellheim and to be tested on the Avus track in Berlin, reportedly reached near one mile per minute from a standing start, leaving immense smoke and flame. The project aims to set short distance speed records and to explore rocket propulsion for light airfoils and high altitude travel. The German railways reportedly offered a testing rail, and builders plan to apply the rocket concept to other propulsion designs.
