Project MOBIUS Goal: To design and build a high-altitude rocket Discription: Project MOBIUS was started with the aim of designing and launching a multi-stage, extreme high-altitude rocket. If successful, it will be the first such launch made by a micro-nation. The Project will have multiple phases, with each phase a step closer to the final goal. MOBIUS will also be the RMA's first attempt at both a multi-stage rocket, and a multi-engined rocket (multiple engines on a single stage). Builder/Contractor: Romano Technologies Phase 1: Testing multi-stage rockets Phase 2: Development of multi-engined rocket Phase 3: Combining concepts from Stages 1 and 2 into a single rocket. Extreme-high altitude test is achieved. Phase 4 (future goal): Achieving low-Earth orbit. Design Proposals: Hedgehog-class High-Altitude Rocket: Primary rocket of Project MOBIUS. Various models of this unit will be used to reach the altitude goals. Emerald-class booster: Standard booster rocket for Project MOBIUS. Different versions will provide launching power for the 'Hedgehog'-class rocket. Can be stacked upon each other for multi-stage operations. Echidna-class multi-engine test rocket: Will be used to test concepts for using multiple engines working together in a single stage. SuperHog-class Sub-orbital Rocket: Final proposed design to achieve extreme high-altitude (in future, possible low-orbit). Will combine featured from all other MOBIUS designs. |

Current Status 8/14/2010 At this time, two prototype rockets have been completed, one Hedgehog-class and one Echidna-class. Work has been started on the first Emerald-class boosters. However, all MOBIUS vehicals are still in storage in Illinois, USA. It is not known when they will be moved to Federation HQ and brought back online. |
