We can all easily confirm for ourselves that small rockets work. Yet you wish to claim this 3000 tonne rocket can't, yet you can provide no justification for why.
If the 3000 tonne rocket should blow itself up, why shouldn't the small rocket?
Just where should the threshold be? What calculations can you make to see if a rocket will blow up or work?
Forget small rockets.
I could tie a tiny model ship to a small rocket and launch that ship into he air.
Could I do that with a large ship?
What's this got to do with ships, right?
It's simple. You say if a model rocket can do it, why not a 3000 tonne one.
Let's make this simple and clear. All you need to do is answer it as best you can. Use whatever copy/paste you need.
I'll start.
This is what is told to us.
The Saturn V rocket's first stage carries 203,400 gallons (770,000 liters) of kerosene fuel and 318,000 gallons (1.2 million liters) of liquid oxygen needed for combustion. At liftoff, the stage's five F-1 rocket engines ignite and produce 7.5 million pounds of thrust.
The first stage of the Saturn V rocket, using five F-1 rocket engines, produced 7.5 million lbs. (3.4 million kilograms) of thrust and was used during launch for about 2 minutes. It gobbled up
20 tons (40,000 pounds) of fuel
per second.
5 engines each burning 4 tonnes of fuel per second.
Holding 203,400 gallons of Kerosene and 318,000 gallons of liquid oxygen.
Think about this so called massive rocket holding this Kerosene and liquid oxygen.
Imagine the tanks and the strengths of the tanks to hold this.
Let's look at Liquid oxygen storage.
Storage And Handling Tips For Liquid Oxygen
Transportation: Liquid oxygen containers must be handled carefully. Never roll the container. Always use a cart or dolly to move it and secure the container to the device with a strap to help protect it from falling off. Keep containers upright and properly labeled.Storage: Oxygen is non-flammable but will react with most organic materials, including those that burn. In fact, oxygen can make materials burn faster and hotter.
Proper storage is essential to safety. When storing the material, consider 4 things:
Vessels. Oxygen of all kinds must be stored in vessels that are non-reactive with the gas and that have high ignition temperatures.
Temperature. Liquid oxygen is so cold that even during the coldest days of winter, the air temperature is much warmer than the oxygen itself.
Keeping liquid oxygen insulated from this nearby heat is essential. Containers should be able to withstand temperature and pressure changes and conform to national standards and codes.
Location. Keep the containers in a well-ventilated area and protected from weather extremes. Do not store it near any flammable or combustible materials.Pressure Values. Do not tamper with container pressure relief devices, which are designed to control the internal pressure of the container by automatically venting.
Imagine all of this in a big rocket just standing there, let alone supposedly igniting 20 tonnes of fuel up the side of it as we see...same with the space x types.
Imagine if this was real life?
I'm sure people know how containers of liquid oxygen are stored on a small scale.
However, let's concentrate on those big engines. The F1 so called rocket engines.
Each
one managing to eject
4 tonnes of fuel per second through the pipes to the combustion chamber.
It's easy to just accept it as being some amazing thing.
Let's try and make this more realistic.
Imagine being stood near 4 tonnes of unburned fuel in a big container held aloft and imagine a hole opening up 6 feet in diameter under that load.
How long do you think it would take for the fuel empty from that container?
Fairly quick, right? Maybe 3 seconds more or less, fair enough?
If you want to argue it we can go for 1 second but we know it would be a little longer.
This would be through a 6 foot hole.
The f1 engine does not show any large holes to eject this 4 tonnes a second of fuel from. It shows fairly small feed pipes to a chamber.
Any pipe will have a flow rate. A maximum flow rate and it will not be 4 tonnes per second.
You see, this is where people lose their logic in favour of acceptance of sci-fi in order to allow big 3000 tonne sci-fi rockets to go into so called space.
Today they play around with Falcon heavy and space X light and what not.
Basically do what they want, as long as they can make the story fit.
Take a look at the F1 engines. Look at the diagrams.
Reason with yourselves.
After all, you aren't going to be able to shoot a massive cannon ball through the barrel of an sir pistol just as you aren't going to throw 4 tonnes of fuel through a small diameter pipe.
