CORRECTIONS
- One fantastic correction from Dogan Erbahar which I will paste a copy of here:
"When equating the momenta you already put the minus sign in front of v_e. But then at the end you are again substituting on the equation. The resulting equation is correct but that minus sign is there not because of v_e. It is there because your dm is negative that your rocket is losing mass. So should be placed in derivation."
- Let me know if you spot any other mistakes!
Thanks to my Patreons whose generous funding I used for a vacation to Cocoa Beech Florida NO REFUNDS.
(Or maybe everyone involved donated their time, covered their own expenses and my Patreons only had to pay for that flip-chart. True story: I bought that flip-chart in the USA as it seemed silly to fly one over from the UK and afterwards the NASA outreach team kept it, which I think means it officially 'works at NASA'. That flip-chart now has a cooler job than me.)
