Oldsmobile once again was a pioneer when, for the 1949 model, they introduced their Rocket engine, which used an overhead valve V8 design rather than the flathead " straight-8 " design which prevailed at the time.

Oldsmobile's Rocket V8 engine was the leader in performance, generally considered the fastest cars on the market and by the mid 1950s their styling was among the first to offer a wide, " open maw " grille, suggestive of jet propulsion.

It was powered by Oldsmobile's most powerful Rocket V8 engine, a 394 CID engine from 1961 to 1964 rated from 330 to, and a larger 425 CID Super Rocket V8 from 1965 to 1966, rated at.

The original Toronado was powered by a 425 CID Super Rocket V8 engine rated at, mated to a three-speed Turbo Hydra-Matic transmission.

Oldsmobile sales soared in the 1970s and 1980s ( for an all-time high of 1, 066, 122 in 1985 ) based on popular designs, positive reviews from critics and the perceived quality and reliability of the Rocket V8 engine, with the Cutlass series becoming North America's top selling car by 1976.

Many customers were loyal Oldsmobile buyers who specifically wanted the Rocket V8, and did not discover that their vehicle had the Chevrolet engine until they performed maintenance and discovered that purchased parts did not fit.

Rocket was built at a time of rapid development of steam engine technology.

The Science Museum now holds a collection of over 300, 000 items, including such famous items as Stephenson's Rocket, Puffing Billy ( the oldest surviving steam locomotive ), the first jet engine, a reconstruction of Francis Crick and James Watson's model of DNA, some of the earliest remaining steam engines, a working example of Charles Babbage's Difference engine ( and the latter, preserved half brain ), the first prototype of the 10, 000-year Clock of the Long Now, and documentation of the first typewriter.

Following pressure by the American Rocket Society, the National Science Foundation, and the International Geophysical Year, military interest picked up and in early 1955 the Army and Navy were working on Project Orbiter, two competing programs, the army's which involved using a Jupiter C rocket, and the civilian / Navy Vanguard Rocket, to launch a satellite.

The Underdog EP consists of only five songs: " Underdog ", about the struggles of a high school underdog football player ; " Avondale ", about backstabbing ( it was specifically written in expression of a now-resolved fight between Yellowcard singer Ryan Key and Inspection 12 singer Dan McLintock, paraphrasing lyrics from his song " Doppelganger " aimed at Ryan ); " Finish Line ", seemingly about nostalgia ( but also more deeply about the band's friendship with another band, The Starting Line ); " Powder ", about the more frightening downsides of using drugs recreationally, including abuse and addiction ( it specifically is meant to refer to oxycodone ); and " Rocket ", a sort of " punk lullaby ".

Like the RB545, the SABRE design is neither a conventional rocket engine nor jet engine, but a Precooled Hybrid Air Breathing Rocket Engine that burns liquid hydrogen fuel combined with an oxidant of either compressor-fed gaseous air or stored liquid oxygen fed using a turbopump.

It is customary to calculate the thrust-to-weight ratio using initial gross weight at sea-level on earth .< ref > George P. Sutton & Oscar Biblarz, Rocket Propulsion Elements ( p. 442, 7th edition ) “ The loaded weight W < sub > g </ sub > is the sea-level initial gross weight of propellant and rocket propulsion system hardware .”</ ref > This is sometimes called Thrust-to-Earth-weight ratio.

A new version of the Rocket V8 engine was offered for the 1965 model year, this one measuring displacement, still using a Rochester 4-barrel carburetor, and generating at 4800 rpm.
