Professor Eugen Sänger's ideas for using rockets in national defense and space exploration
Drawings and pictures of Professor Eugen Sänger's S.R.13 and 14 Rocket motors from September, 1934. He holds a motor in his hand and points out its features. Photograph of Austrian patent certificate number 144809 issued to Doctor Eugen Sänger in Vienna, effective September 15, 1935, for Rocket engine and method for its operation. Glimpse of illustrations in the document. Drawing of planned 500 Kg thrust rocket motor designed by Sänger Rocket Motors. Eugen Sänger's drawings for a rocket-propelled missile to hunt airplanes. Design of a rocket motor (the S.R.X), on June 10, 1934, with 1000 kg thrust for a tropospheric experimental aircraft. Image of a letter to Dr.Sänger, from the the Federal Ministry of National Defense, dated February 3, 1934, stating that his ideas were not practially realizable.
Rocket motor designs by International scientists and inventors, reflecting early work by German rocket researchers
Designs by various international scientists and inventors who have contributed to solving the problems of rocket motor development, based on the German preparatory work. Their combustion chamber designs owe much to the German pioneers in the field. Shown are design sketches by Russian scientist, Konstantin Tsiolkovsky (Ziolkowsky) in 1914; French inventor Henri Melot, in 1920; German Friedrich Zander, in 1931; Bull, 1932; The American Rocket Society, with several designs from 1932; and The Cleveland Rocket Society. Views of rocket combustion research activity by Ernst Loebell of the Cleveland Rocket Society in 1933. He is seen outdoors in the snow with his apparatus. View of Loebell's test firing stand, and a picture of an actual test firing, outdoors. Ernst Loebell with model and rocket motor from his spaceship projects of 1934 and at the International Exposition dedicated to Art and Technology in Modern Life held in Paris, 1937. Cutaway views of the spaceship. The rocket motor wrapped in cooling coils. Rocket motor design by John Shesta of the American Rocket Society, from 1934. Design by Rene Armengaud of France, in 1934 and Deich in 1935.
Animated map of Canada and the United States, illustrating North American Air Defense system.
Actor Raymond Massey introducing the subject of North American Air Defense, which is a joint enterprise of Canada and the United States. A map of the United States, Canada and the Arctic. Animation shows radar sites comprising the Dew Line, Mid Canada Line and Pine Tree Line in Canada, as well as coastal and ship borne sites around the United States. Internal U.S. sites tied to the automated SAGE system (Semi Automatic Ground Environment) are shown. SAGE is a computerized control system for tracking and intercepting enemy bombers. The headquarters of NORAD (North American Air Defense) is shown, at Cheyenne Mountain, Colorado. Mr. Massey points out models of new antiaircraft missiles displayed on his desk. Animation shows how these can be fired from the ships at sea.
Rocket engine designs and tests by Professor Eugen Sänger, in 1934
Rocket cooling investigations influenced rocketry pioneer, Professor Eugen Sänger's design for his rocket motor, S.R.3. View of his drawings and notes from 1934. Display of mechanical parts from the S.R.3. Items comprising test apparatus for the rocket motor, with various parts labeled. Mechanical Testing setup in Sänger's work shop and instrumentation, labeled in German, showing things such as motor thrust, pump pressure, liquid oxygen level, etc. The first burn test on March 15, 1934. Sänger stands in doorway of his workshop in Vienna, using a long pole to initiate the burn. Various views of flames emanating from the prototype rocket motor during the burn test. A revised sketch of the S.R.3 prototype rocket motor. Test of this version with flames barely visible due to complete combustion, during start-up and operation.
Drawings and hardware of Professor Eugen Sänger's S.R.6 and 7 rocket motors designed in 1934.
Drawing of "L-Rocket," dated January 5, 1933. Professor Eugen Sänger's S.R.6 Rocket motor from May 23, 1934, in which the combustion chamber is the same design as the slim nozzle of the L-Rocket. Actual parts of the S.R.6 motor. Plan of Rocket motor S.R.7 from May 21, 1934, with fuel inlet cooling by coiled pipe to the nozzle jacket. Second version of S.R.7 from June 5th, with cooling in the outer shell. Drawings of Versions three and four of the S.R.7. and scenes of the actual hardware held in Sänger's hand. He unscrews part and points out the features. He points out the cooling coils around the combustion chamber. Another version is similarily displayed after he removes its outer shell.
Views of Professor Eugen Sänger's S.R.8 Rocket motor and its testing in 1934
Drawings of Professor Eugen Sänger's S.R.8 Rocket motor from July 5, 1934. The actual motor set next to a milimeter scale. Chamber of SR8 with external cooling groove before and after welding. Various views of the S.R.8. on the test stand with instrumentation in place, inside Sänger's workshop, in Vienna, July 19, 1934. Closeups of the test firing of the S.R.8 rocket motor, showing consistent smooth controlled burning.
