Rocket 3

Rocket 3 is an expendable, vertically-launched two-stage LOX/kerosene rocket, designed to fit inside a standard shipping container and built to dramatically lower the cost of access to space. The launch vehicle consists of a first stage powered by five Delphin electric-pump-fed engines and an upper stage propelled by a single pressure-fed Aether engine.
