description An apparatus for generating seismic waves includes an elongated closed tube with a piston in its internal cavity. The piston is carried by a piston rod which extends through the top of the tube, and includes a fuel inlet and exhaust channel. The piston also carries a second tube to define a combustion chamber therein, and a fuel conducting tube extending along the length of the piston rod and beyond the piston to approximately medially within the second tube. When a combustion fuel is introduced to within the combustion chamber and ignited, a force is applied to the piston in one direction and an opposite force is applied to the tube moving the tube with respect to the piston a distance approximately three times the diameter of the piston.
