The research will be carried out using an unguided solid propellant twostaged rocket, Terrier Mk12 and Improved Orion.

The Terrier motor has a burn phase of 5 seconds. The Imp. Orion Motor is a dual thrust burner with a boost phase of 5 seconds and a sustainer phase of approximately 21 seconds. The rocket accelerates the payload then for 40.0 seconds with peak acceleration during the boost phase of approximately 21 g.
