Space science rocket fuel

Physical science is the study of matter and energy. Chemistry is one of the physical sciences.- It teaches us much about the different kinds of matter and how they behave. It teaches how different chemicals react with each other, so that you can tell in advance what will happen when you mix certain chemicals together. This knowledge has helped chemists decide what fuels to use to propel rockets and push satellites into space. But you cannot work with nuclear reactors or rocket fuels until you first learn the fundamental facts of chemistry. This book will help you to do just that. [Pg.5]

In nuclear science, liquid hydrogen is used in bubble chamber detectors for high-energy particles and in the space program as a rocket fuel. Hydrogen gas is potentially a large-scale fuel in future for internal combustion engines and fuel cells. [Pg.1604]
