It described a combustion chamber, with expander nozzle, into which liquid fuels are pumped. At age 31, this was his second rocket patent. A week earlier, on 7 Jul 1914, his first patent, also for a “Rocket Apparatus” was issued. (U.S. No. 1,102,653) which described the multi-stage rocket concept.

Its 2.5 second flight covered a distance of 184-ft at an average speed of 60-mph. The fuel was a combination of liquid oxygen and gasoline.« |
