# Executor (rocket engine)

Executor is a rocket engine developed by ARCA for use on its Haas rocket series and on IAR 111 Excelsior supersonic airplane. Executor uses kerosene and liquid oxygen as propellants in a gas-generator power cycle.
The injector of Executor is of the pintle type that was first used in the Apollo Program for the lunar module landing engine.
Propellants are fed via a single shaft, dual inducer-impeller turbo-pump. The turbine exhaust gases are used for attitude control of the Haas 2 rocket.

## Variants

Two versions of the Executor are in development. The Executor engine for the first stage of the Haas 2B and Super Haas launchers and for the IAR-111 Excelsior airplane. The second variant is the Executor Plus engine that it uses a larger exhaust nozzle optimized for vacuum operation. The Executor Plus is used on the Haas 2 air-launched rocket and on the second stage of the Super Haas rocket.

## Engine description

Executor, uses an inexpensive, expendable, ablatively cooled silica-phenolic and carbon fiber composite nozzle, and produce 260 kN of thrust. The engine's ablative nozzle is designed for a 180-second run. The internal structure of the engine is made of silica-phenolic composite, while the outer structure is carbon-epoxy. The structure thickness varies from 10mm to 30mm. Beside the ablative cooling, the engine is using a kerosene film cooling method.

## Engine development schedule

The Executor engine construction started at ARCA in December 2011. The first ground test was scheduled for the middle of 2012. Twelve engines were scheduled to be built in the first phase, until the first flight on board of the Haas 2 rocket in 2013. This first ground flight of the Haas 2 rocket will be for the Google Lunar X Prize Competition. After this flight, the engine will be integrated on the IAR 111 Excelsior supersonic airplane.

# HPS stain

In histology, the HPS stain, or hematoxylin phloxine saffron stain, is a way of marking tissues.
HPS is similar to H&E, the standard bearer in histology. However, it differentiates between the most common connective tissue (collagen) and muscle and cytoplasm by staining the former yellow and the latter two pink, unlike an H&E stain, which stains all three pink.
HPS stained sections are more expensive than H&E stained sections, primarily due to the cost of saffron.

# Hubert Pink

Hubert Selwyn Pink (12 November 1878 – 25 November 1946) was an English cricketer who played for Derbyshire during the 1900 season.
Pink was born in Chapel-en-le-Frith, the son of Rev. Samuel H Pink, curate of Chapel-en-le-Frith, and his wife Frances. Pink played three matches for Derbyshire during the 1900 season, debuting against Lancashire in May 1900 when he made a modest account of himself. In the following week against Surrey, Pink was given a chance to bowl when Surrey needed only 40 in their second innings to win, but took no wickets. His last match against Yorkshire was a draw and he only played one innings. Pink was a right-handed batsman and played 5 innings in 3 first-class matches with an average of 4.80 and a top score of 11. In bowling he took 0 for 27.
During World War I Pink was a 2nd Lieutenant (acting Captain) in the Sherwood Foresters. In 1919 he was awarded the Military Cross. A later edition noted the circumstances "For great gallantry and skill in leading his company in the attack on the St. Quentin Canal on 29 September 1918. In spite of the very thick fog and gas shelling, he kept his company up to time, and under enfilade machine-gun fire and artillery barrage took his men over in fine style. His company took their objective splendidly, swinging round on the way to charge a field gun battery still in action.Having arrived at his objective, he pushed his advanced platoons into Lehaucourt, taking several prisoners".
Pink died in Chapel-en-le-Frith at the age of 68.
