The EmDrive first drew attention, both credulous and dismissive, when New Scientist wrote about it as an "impossible" drive in 2006. [29] Media outlets were later criticized for misleading claims that a resonant cavity thruster had been "validated by NASA" [ 30 ] following White's first tentative test reports in 2014. [ 31 ]
The Advanced Propulsion Physics Laboratory is enabled by section 2.3.7 of the NASA Technology Roadmap TA 2: In Space Propulsion Technologies: [11] Breakthrough Propulsion: Breakthrough propulsion is an area of technology development that seeks to explore and develop a deeper understanding of the nature of space-time, gravitation, inertial frames, quantum vacuum, and other fundamental physical ...
The Helical engine is a proposed spacecraft propulsion drive that, like other reactionless drives, would violate the laws of physics. [1] [2] [3]The concept was proposed by David M. Burns, formerly a NASA engineer at the Marshall Space Flight Center in Alabama, in a non-peer-reviewed report published on a NASA server in 2019 describing it as "A new concept for in-space propulsion is proposed ...
The astronauts stranded on the International Space Station are still not able to come home, Nasa has said. Two astronauts went to the space station almost 50 days ago as part of a test of Boeing ...
White attracted the attention of the press when he began presenting his ideas at space conventions and publishing proposals for Alcubierre drive concepts. In 2011, he released a paper titled Warp Field Mechanics 101 that outlined an updated concept of Miguel Alcubierre's faster-than-light propulsion concept, including methods to prove the feasibility of the project.
The Advanced Electric Propulsion System qualification thruster inside one of the vacuum chambers at NASA Glenn’s Electric Propulsion and Power Laboratory. Advanced Electric Propulsion System ( AEPS ) is a solar electric propulsion system for spacecraft that is being designed, developed and tested by NASA and Aerojet Rocketdyne for large-scale ...
The second launch in the propellant transfer will fly an unknown amount of propellant as its payload. [1] In order to prevent the propellant from boiling during the vehicle's time in orbit, significant insulation and vacuum jacketing will be added to the propellant lines inside the vehicle. [1]
A NASA engineer has been charged in connection with six sexual assaults, Texas officials say. Now they are looking for more possible survivors. In an April 3 news conference, ...
