There are funny pictures of me in this video. Also I talk about why space rockets generally use staging and why they're so big anyway. After all space is only a measly 100 kilometers up, airplanes and cars travel many times that distance and do so using far less fuel, why?

Link to the math page I spoke of: http://www.projectrho.com/public_html/rocket/multistage.php I recommend reading his entire website it's pretty great
