Detailed Analysis

CourseMarks Score®

7.9 / 10

CourseMarks Score® helps students to find the best classes. We aggregate 18 factors, including freshness, student feedback and content diversity.

Freshness Score

5.1 / 10
This course was last updated on 5/2018.

Course content can become outdated quite quickly. After analysing 71,530 courses, we found that the highest rated courses are updated every year. If a course has not been updated for more than 2 years, you should carefully evaluate the course before enrolling.

Student Feedback

9.0 / 10
We analyzed factors such as the rating (4.3/5) and the ratio between the number of reviews and the number of students, which is a great signal of student commitment.

New courses are hard to evaluate because there are no or just a few student ratings, but Student Feedback Score helps you find great courses even with fewer reviews.

Content Score

9.0 / 10
Video Score: 8.0 / 10
The course includes 2h 42m video content. Courses with more videos usually have a higher average rating. We have found that the sweet spot is 16 hours of video, which is long enough to teach a topic comprehensively, but not overwhelming. Courses over 16 hours of video gets the maximum score.
The average video length is 4 hours 02 minutes of 45 Aerospace Engineering courses on Udemy.
Detail Score: 9.6 / 10

The top online course contains a detailed description of the course, what you will learn and also a detailed description about the instructor.

Description

THE ONLY COMPREHENSIVE, DETAILED AND APPROACHABLE ONLINE COURSE ON ROCKET SCIENCE AND INTERSTELLAR SPACE PROPULSION!
Space launchers and rocket propulsion systems are what allowed us to spread our spacecrafts from the Earth’s orbit to the ends of the Solar System. They lift buildings to the sky, taking robots to Mars, enabling satellites to continuously transform human civilization and offering us the hope of one day spreading throughout the universe. This course offers the opportunity to learn and understand:
– The Fundamental Principles of Rocket Science and Rocket Theory.
– Chemical Rocket Design.
– The Engineering and Challenges Behind Expendable and Reusable Space Launchers.
– Electric and Low Thrust Space Propulsion .
– Advanced Nuclear and Interstellar Space Propulsion.
I will thoroughly detail and walk you through each of these subjects and explain down to their fundamental principles, all concepts and subject-specific vocabulary. This course is the ideal beginner, intermediate or advanced learning platform for Rocket Science and the engineering around it. Whatever your background, whether you are a student, a writer, a sci-fi addict, a computer scientist, an engineer, a business or sports person with an interest in Space, rockets or crazily powerful machines, you will understand the functioning and engineering behind our most ambitious technologies!
If you have questions at any point of your progress along the course, it will be my pleasure to answer any of your questions within 24 hours!
If this sounds like it might interest you, for your personal growth, career or academic endeavours, I strongly encourage you to join! You won’t regret it!

You will learn

✓ Understand fundamental rocket theory including the rocket equation and how to derive it.
✓ Understand critical rocket design parameters and be able to use them.
✓ Understand the physical principles behind chemical rockets and their fundamental engineering (combustion, exhaust, cooling, propellant systems, etc).
✓ Understand the performance and difference between the propellant types used in current space launchers.
✓ Conduct basic calculations to size space launchers to reach orbit.
✓ Understand the need for and be able to size and calculate the performance of multiple stages space launchers.
✓ Understand the need for and different design schools behind reusable space launchers.
✓ Understand the physical principles and different technologies behind electric propulsion.
✓ Understand the physical principles and different technologies behind advanced interstellar propulsion concepts.

Requirements

• Basic understanding of physics (force, velocity, acceleration, pressure, etc).
• High School Diploma mathematics level will be helpful to understand some calculations but not mandatory.

This course is for

• Anyone interested in understanding the way rockets and advanced space propulsion works.
• Anyone interested in learning about the acme of human technological achievement.
• Basically, anyone interested in becoming a rocket scientist. and bragging about it at parties and dinners.

Aerospace Engineer and Founder @FuroSystems
I have always been impressed and passionate about flying machines and the ultimate frontier that space represents. This led me to graduate from a Masters in Aerospace Engineering as one of the top students at a leading UK university. Throughout this degree I was offered the opportunity to understand and apply advanced engineering concepts to different design projects.
In my final year, I consequently designed a proof of concept nuclear battery or Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator (refer to my courses to learn more about these) for nanosatellites which was judged by academics as one of the best projects of my department, won the Reaction Engines prize and presented at the 4th Interplanetary Cubesat Workshop. Similarly, I developed, with a team of colleagues, an unmanned rotorcraft able to fight fires, carry cargo and surveillance missions which eventually won a design competition for Agusta Westland.
I went on to found FuroSystems, a company which designs, manufactures and retails ultra light high performance electric vehicles. Our goal is to help accelerate society’s transition to electric means of transportation through aesthetic, powerful and affordable machines. We are now present in over 30 countries and have sold 1000s of units.
I am very excited to be able to share my knowledge with curious individuals, who like me want to know more about the engineering behind the wonderful machines that populate our world.
