Rocket Propellant Comparison

Compare solid, hypergolic, LOX/LH2 cryogenic and LOX/methane rocket propellants side by side: watch each burn with its real exhaust color, and see specific impulse translate into delta-v via the Tsiolkovsky rocket equation.

This simulator compares four real rocket propellant families — solid, hypergolic, LOX/LH2 cryogenic and LOX/methane cryogenic — by rendering each one's combustion in a 3D engine chamber with its true exhaust color, storage temperature and specific impulse, then feeding that Isp into the Tsiolkovsky rocket equation to compute delta-v for a chosen mass ratio.
