I was wondering what it is made of exactly and if there are different ways of making it. Also what the process of making it is. Ha! No I'm not trying to take over the world. Just wondering. Thanks.

a Nasa site I don't remember said:"The propellant mixture in each SRB motor consists of an ammonium perchlorate (oxidizer, 69.6 percent by weight), aluminum (fuel, 16 percent), iron oxide (a catalyst, 0.4 percent), a polymer (a binder that holds the mixture together, 12.04 percent), and an epoxy curing agent (1.96 percent). The propellant is an 11-point star- shaped perforation in the forward motor segment and a double- truncated- cone perforation in each of the aft segments and aft closure. This configuration provides high thrust at ignition and then reduces the thrust by approximately a third 50 seconds after lift-off to prevent overstressing the vehicle during maximum dynamic pressure."
LURCH said:I remember the pilot of Scaled Composit's X-Prize winner, "Spaceship One" quipping that he was going into space riding on "tire rubber and laughing gas". Their choice for solid fuel was a mixture of the main polymer used in automotive tires and nitrus oxide.
"The Mysterious Process of Making It" refers to the process of achieving success or achieving one's goals, which can often seem elusive or unknown to many people.
There is no one specific formula or method for "making it" as it can vary greatly depending on an individual's goals, circumstances, and definition of success. However, there are some common traits and practices that can increase the chances of success, such as hard work, perseverance, and adaptability.
The timeline for "making it" can vary greatly and is dependent on many factors, including an individual's goals, efforts, and opportunities. Some people may achieve success relatively quickly, while for others it may take years or even decades. It is important to focus on the journey and not just the end goal, as success is often a continuous and evolving process.
While everyone has the potential to achieve success, the definition of "making it" can be subjective and different for each person. Additionally, external factors such as privilege, opportunities, and luck can play a role in one's ability to achieve success. Ultimately, it is important to set realistic goals and focus on personal growth rather than comparing oneself to others.
While there is no guaranteed method for success, some ways to increase your chances of "making it" include setting clear and achievable goals, continuously learning and improving, surrounding yourself with supportive and like-minded individuals, and staying persistent and resilient in the face of challenges and setbacks. It is also important to remember that success is not a destination, but a journey, and to enjoy the process along the way.
