- Are you talking about the formulas, because they are rendered automatically by the MediaWiki software. Unfortunately I can't really give you a better explanation, but you might want to check Help:Displaying a formula on the Wikipedia. — xZise [talk] 10:09, 6 February 2014 (CST)
Suggestion
I did some math, and I_sp before being divided by g_0 is equal to the exhaust speed (v_e) used in Tsiolkovsky rocket equation. The same is said in wikipedia. Is it still true in KSP? Can I edit this information into the article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sirplentifus (talk • contribs) 14:17, 18 April 2014 (UTC)
| “ | Although the unit of the specific impulse is a velocity it is lower than the exhaust speed usually, because some of the fuel consumed isn't used for propelling directly, but runs the turbopumps to fuel the engine. | ” |
