Retro rockets of the 1950s had a very distinguished design as seen in the illustrations.
Swept back fin aerodynamic design and a space efficient rocket body was abandoned for the more cheap easy to roll and weld straight cylinder cut.
SPACE1 recently, in 2018, revised its entire rocket fleet to one made from a mold, and it now resembles the more aerodynamically efficient retro rocket of the 1950s. Making rockets from molds allow the use of specialized materials, not just cold rolled metals that were used in the past. Use of new materials such as Carbon fiber, and the material used by SPACE1 is now possible.The new Pioneer rocket design has a special delineation of the nose capsule compartment and the sleek swept back fins which holds a great streamlined and aerodynamic improvement during the Troposphere portion of the rocket flight mission.
The bulging belly of the rocket can hold more payload and fuel, and large viewing ports are brought back into style.
Many of these retro rocket appearances were in design only, as we've yet to see one in person until now at SPACE1. For more information, consult the links regarding Pioneer and Pioneer Heavy rockets.
