## Overview

Mojave Sphinx is a downloadable design and build resource package for a liquid-propellant amateur rocket, not an executable application. Its documented user journey is to consult the build, integration, and launch guidance; use the component models and drawings to prepare parts; and consult the motor and flight simulations. The repository also provides a bill of materials and a design-modification archive. The tree supports these resource categories, but no source excerpts establish dependencies or a required sequence between individual files.
