🚀 Two-Stage Rocket Staging (2D)

2D side-view simulation of a two-stage rocket launch. Tune propellant mass and Isp per stage, watch stage separation, and compare the summed per-stage delta-v against a single-stage rocket of equal total mass.

Design a two-stage rocket and launch it in this 2D side-view simulation. Tune propellant mass and Isp per stage, watch the stage-separation event drop dead mass mid-flight, and compare the summed per-stage delta-v against a single-stage rocket of equal total mass to see the real payoff of staging.
