Exploring how rocket fins stabilize flight, control direction, and balance forces, revealing the essential physics behind safe and accurate rocket launches.

For this video, I'll be exploring some of the science behind hypergolic liquid propelled rockets. As a fuel, I used aniline, and as an oxidizer, I used nitric acid that I made in a previous video.

What happens to soft matter when gravity disappears? To answer this, UvA physicists launched a fluid dynamics experiment on a sounding rocket. The suborbital rocket reached an altitude of 267 km ...
