Abstract
At least part of a rocket or spacecraft is made of a frozen gas in solid form 2. There may be two or more parts of said spacecraft made from frozen gas in solid form. The frozen gas in solid form may be carbon dioxide. The part or parts may be made from two or more frozen gasses to form a composite. The part or parts may be one of; a cowling, fairing nose cone, bolt or bolts or cover or tether or support or strut. The part or parts may be a fuel or oxidiser tank. The part or parts may form two or more fuel or oxidiser tanks of at least one stage 1. The fuel and oxidiser may be cryogenic liquids to assist in maintaining the integrity of the fuel or oxidiser tanks. The fuel and oxidiser may be liquid nitrogen and liquid oxygen. The engines 3 associated with the at least one stage or stages may be jettisoned.
