Synopsis:

The rocket propellant in the Ares I First Stage burns at 5600 degrees Fahrenheit. The rocket's metal case would melt rapidly if it weren't protected somehow--find out how they do it.

[The Ares rockets were part of NASA's Constellation Program which ended in 2010. Despite the policy change, this movie shows real-world applications of math, science, technology and engineering applicable to virtually any space exploration program.]
