Its purpose was to study various non-chemical space propulsion systems [3] instead of the conventional rocket for the use of space missions to near-Earth, the Moon, and the outer solar system, including plasma propulsion, laser propulsion, nuclear propulsion, solar sail and field propulsion systems which utilize a strain on space, zero-point ...
The Journal of Propulsion and Power is a bimonthly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering research on aerospace propulsion and power. The editor-in-chief is Joseph M. Powers (University of Notre Dame). It is published by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics and was established in 1985.
The test took place on September 15, 2021, at the testing ground of the Military Institute of Armament Technology in Zielonka near Warsaw in Poland. The rocket engine, according to the plan, worked for 3.2 s, accelerating the rocket to a speed of about 90 m/s, which allowed the rocket to reach an altitude of 450 m.
In-flight picture of the pulsed-detonation–powered, and heavily modified, Rutan Long-EZ on January 31, 2008 PDEs have been considered for propulsion since 1940. [3]The first known flight of an aircraft powered by a pulse detonation engine took place at the Mojave Air & Space Port on 31 January 2008. [4]
'Expedition') is a restartable upper stage developed by the China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology (CALT) for the Long March rocket family. The Yuanzheng stage enables the Chinese launch vehicles to deploy payloads directly to high-energy orbits such as medium Earth orbit (MEO) and geosynchronous orbit (GSO).
In March 2010, ISRO conducted the flight testing of its new sounding rocket: Advanced Technology Vehicle (ATV-D01), weighing 3 tonnes at lift-off, a diameter of .56 m (1 ft 10 in), and a length of ~10 m (33 ft). [7] It carried a passive scramjet engine combustor module as a test-bed for demonstration of air-breathing propulsion technology. [8]
Since 2011, White had a team at NASA known as the Advanced Propulsion Physics Laboratory, or Eagleworks Laboratories, devoted to studying exotic propulsion concepts. [79] The group investigated ideas for a wide range of untested and fringe proposals , including Alcubierre drives , drives that interact with the quantum vacuum , and RF resonant ...
The NASA X-57 Maxwell was an experimental aircraft developed by NASA, intended to demonstrate technology to reduce fuel use, emissions, and noise. [2] The first flight of the X-57 was scheduled to take place in 2023, but the program was cancelled due to problems with the propulsion system. [3] [4] [5]
