Study is made of improvement in performance of sounding rockets by replacing solid propellent motors by packaged liquid propellent engines; "Aurora" high-altitude research rocket designed by Swedish Interplanetary Soc and small meteorological sounding rocket designed as liquid propelled vehicle were chosen for study; with liquid propellents there is marked improvement in performance of "Aurora"; cost of liquid propellent rockets is not appreciably different.
