I have to do a physics report on a manned mission to Mars. It involves choosing fuel types for the ship. I've narrowed it down to liquid hydrogen or hydrazine. Hydrogen has a higher specific impulse, and hydrazine has a higher density impulse. I don't have a clue what these terms mean, and my teacher says he's never heard of them before.
Any Einsteins out there?
