The thick trail of black smoke left by SpaceShipOne would tend to indicate that the HTPB/N2O hybrid rocket used on that particular craft is less than green. However, since hybrid rockets are not exactly mainstream technology, little information is available regarding their emission characteristics. This, of course, will likely change should hybrid rockets ever become more widely used. And efforts will likely be made to reduce emissions.

What is a hybrid Rocket propellant?
A hybrid rocket is the rocket with a rocket motor that uses propellants in two different states of matter; one liquid or gas and one solid.
Can you use sugar as the fuel in a hybrid rocket motor?
I don't believe that any hybrid rocket engines use sugar as a fuel; while sugar will burn, the specific impulse of sugar is pretty low. However, the Ansari X-Prize winning "SpaceShipOne" used a hybrid rocket fueled by recycled rubber tires, so I suppose anything is possible.
What is HPM motor?
HYBRID PERMANENT MAGNATE Motor
What is a rocket motor?
A rocket motor is a propulsion system that generates thrust to propel a rocket or spacecraft by expelling mass at high speed, typically through the combustion of propellants. It operates based on Newton's third law of motion, where the action of expelling gas results in a reaction that pushes the rocket in the opposite direction. Rocket motors can be classified into solid, liquid, and hybrid types, depending on the state of the propellant used. They are essential for launching vehicles into space and for maneuvering in various space missions.
How many engines does a car have?
One, unless if it is a hybrid. A hybrid has one gas motor and one electric motor
How do they put a rocket motor into a rocket?
If you have a standard kit, the motor goes in the tube at the bottom so that the end of the motor with a clay nozzle sticks out. Place an igniter in the motor and (if you are using Estes or Quest motors) put the plug ontop of the igniter and push it in. Turn the rocket upright and put it on the pad. If you don't have a rocket with a motor mount meant for this than don't try it.
What does HE stand for in a Jaguar?
In a Jaguar, "HE" stands for "Hybrid Electric." This designation is used for models that incorporate hybrid technology, combining a traditional internal combustion engine with an electric motor to enhance performance and improve fuel efficiency. The HE models aim to offer a balance of power and environmental responsibility.
Why is a hybrid popular?
Hybrid vehicles are popular because they will save you money on gas. A hybrid car will use both gas and an electric motor.
Which engine does a real spaceship have?
Hydrogen/Oxygen rocket motor and chemical rocket motors.
What rocket color code represents the rocket motor?
The rocket motor color code typically uses a striped pattern with alternating bands of black and white or other contrasting colors to indicate the presence of a rocket motor. The specific colors and patterns may vary depending on the manufacturer and the type of rocket motor being used.
Can you sniff a model rocket?
After the motor is burnt you can !
What is the difference between parallel hybrid and series hybrid cars?
Parallel hybrid has a fuel tank,which supplies power to an electronic motor. Both the engine and the electronic motor can turn to transmission at the same time,and the transmission then turns to the wheels. Series hybrid- the gasoline engine turns a generator,and the generator can either charge the batteries or power an electric motor that drives transmission.
