Scout Rocket Model 1:144 Scale – NASA's Vintage Solid-Fuel Launch Vehicle
The Scout Rocket Model is a scaled-down version (1:144) of NASA's first all-solid-fuel launch vehicle. Designed for rocketry enthusiasts, educators, and engineers.
The Scout rocket, developed in the late 1950s, was designed for low-cost satellite launches. Its modular, four-stage design made it reliable and versatile, capable of launching small payloads into low Earth orbit.
First Stage (Algol), Thrust: Approx. 120,000 pounds. Burn Time: ~35 seconds. The longest and most powerful of the four stages, providing initial velocity.
Second Stage (Castor), Thrust: Approx. 60,000 pounds, Used for mid-flight acceleration after the first stage separation.
Third Stage (Antares), Thrust: Approx. 20,000 pounds. Provided fine-tuned trajectory correction and orbital insertion capability.
Fourth Stage (Altair), Thrust: Approx. 3,000 pounds. Final stage for payload deployment, ensuring precision for small satellite launches.
Model Specifications
Scale: 1:144.
Height: 7.5 inches, representing the full-scale rocket's 75 feet.
Material: PLA Plastic
Weight: Lightweight and easy to handle for display or educational use.
Comes with attached Decals and extras included.
