Titus (rocket)

The Titus sounding rocket was developed specifically by ONERA for observing the solar corona and conducting spectral analysis of the Sun's ultraviolet rays during the November 1966 solar eclipse in Argentina. The two-stage rocket, standing just over 11.5 meters tall and weighing 3045 kg without payload, could launch 400 kg to an altitude of 250 km.
