The Titan II booster rocket generated 530,000
pounds of thrust - the Mercury-Atlas only 367,000.
The rocket reached a velocity of 17,400 mph in just over 300 seconds - a rate of climb that was more than 10 times greater than what Young experienced while setting his second time-to-climb record in the F4 Phantom. |
