How does this work? I'm assuming that you can use it multiple times as long as you have the mana, but then it gets sacrificed at the end.

Way to go Wizards. Power creep, mythic-rare profitting, and now messing over old cards. Seriously, since the Alara block, WotC has rendered dozens of cards, if not hundreds, completely useless.
See Lair lands, 90% of vanilla creatures pre-Ravnica, 80% of burn spells, etc.

This seems worse than Rocket launcher, unless there is errata, it reads like its 6 mana for 1 damage.
If thats the case I'd rather use Aeolipile

A strange card, to say the least. If you don't understand it, you're paying 
for one damage.
But if you do understand it...*Maniacal grin*

How would this card interact with effects that return the card to hand? For instance, Dissipation Field which returns a permanent to owner's hand when it does damage to you. Would the card be in the graveyard or in owner's hand?

@ Ragamander and Spacemunky:
No, nothing too difficult or crazy have to be done. It is enough to have good old Interdict, but it does not mean that Goblin Cannon is worse card because of it.
Great card for any time, when you feel like discovering Johnny in you. Because of cards like this, we like numerous variations of Magic.

To those saying that Rocket Launcher is better I would argue the opposite *almost* every time. This can be played when your opponent is tapped out (against colors that might be able to stop you from blasting them.)
Rocket Launcher has to sit for a turn. I'll pay the extra 4 mana now on my 50 mana combo rather than wait a turn suffering removal or the opponent playing a finisher or counter to the card.
