When the rocket propellant burns...
1:29:21
it produces a river of gas
which flows through...

1:29:24
the convergent section
of the nozzle.

1:29:26
If the river continues
through the nozzle...

1:29:28
but through the throat
at less than sonic speed--

1:29:30
that is to say,
less than the speed of sound--

1:29:32
it becomes compacted
in the divergent section...

1:29:36
bound in turmoil--
