Sodium + Ice Rocket Propellant WIP

Added 2025-08-28 05:12:39 +0000 UTC

Heyo science patrons! I've put together another WIP video from my mad science archive. I came across this new type of rocket propellant a few years ago that works on just Aluminium powder and frozen water. While I could just make some of this myself, it really got me thinking about other metals. It's obviously going to be much harder to add Sodium to ice and keep it stable until ignition, but I believe it might be possible with liquid nitrogen. The first problem that I explored in this vid however, is turning the soft metal into a powder and how to clean up the equipment after.

Thanks to all the new Patrons that joined! I appreciate everyone who supports this silly and messy work haha. Means a lot :)
