With the aid of Jebtosâ„¢ and Kerba-Colaâ„¢, We have discovered the greatest booster to date, which is also loved our fellow backyard astronauts!

Pop open the Jebtosâ„¢ and . . Blast off!

The chemical reaction causes a huge burst of thrust, It stops in a matter of seconds, but hey, you know what they say, the more the merrier!

Thanks! When the pack Is finished, I\'m hoping to have a Bob\'s Backyard version of almost every default part.

By tommorow you can expect Bob\'s Can-o-fuel to be released, as the name suggests, It\'s a can of beans.

As someone who nearly lost an eye after an accident with a 2x 2.25l restricted nozzle core stage and 4x 1.5l open nozzle boosters, I can tell you with absolute certainty that the neck of the bottle points down when things are going according to plan. When things are not going according to plan, duck.

If you wondering what happened during the accident, one of the boosters sheared off at launch. The rocket lost stability, performed an amazing series of turns, then head straight for my left eye. Protip: When bottle rockets go out of control, don\'t stand there looking at it in WIDE EYED amazement.

Ouch :(

The bottle rocket design here has the Jebtos jammed into the neck of the bottle, and a hole at the bottom for the reaction to burst out, though a lot of people might see this idea being a bit strange, I\'ll probably add different types of bottle rockets with different or better designs!

But again, things are always not going to go to plan in KSP, after all!
