Merger Proposal[edit]

I propose merging all of the Star rocket pages (Star 27, Star 37, Star 48) into a single page. They are considered to be a single family of designs by the manufacturer, and they are very similar in design and application beyond their size. This will also allow a place for information on other stages within the Star family (Like the Star 5) that aren't necessarily significant enough to justify a whole article, but worth at least mentioning. Other similar families of solid rocket stages (Castor, Orion, Graphite-Epoxy Motor, etc) are listed in a single page as well, rather than individual pages for each variant.Brickmack Talk Contribs 18:05, 7 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Propellant[edit]

The Star 27 uses HTPB fuel, does the entire Star Family? I feel like this is an important addition to the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aylissa-S (talk • contribs) 04:28, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, important. Also we could confirm burn time, Isp, thrust(peak or average), and total impulse (thrust for time). - Rod57 (talk) 09:41, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

GXV - was it used[edit]

GXV has 3x chamber pressure, presumably higher Isp and total impulse. GXV was tested for PSP. Not used on PSP but was it ever used ? - Rod57 (talk) 10:31, 7 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

various problems[edit]

the Star 48B sits on top of spin table - add a before spin

during the separation from the previous stage.[9] (see also Spin-stabilization) - move . after )

(66 723 newtons) - change space to ,

Use on New Horizons - the Star 48B booster was launched along with the New Horizon's spacecraft - delete '

taking both on a trajectory past Pluto; however because - add , after however

it was projected to miss Pluto by hundreds of millions of miles - the 213 million kilometer distance given is only around 130 million miles
