    Undergrad Launching a 50,000 Kg Bus - Calculating Propulsion Needed

    M.E.T.A.~ This made my day! I didn't realize such a wonderfully detailed reply was given to my silly message. This was clearly a drunken evening for me. That said, the bus cannon will now become my life's work. Thanks to you, sir! Haha!
