NASA's Reactive Additive Manufacturing for the Fourth Industrial Revolution (RAMFIRE) project test-fired a 3D-printed engine ...
(Nanowerk News) An electrospray engine applies an electric field to a conductive liquid, generating a high-speed jet of tiny droplets that can propel a spacecraft. These miniature engines are ideal ...
Independent testing confirms this 3D-printed Z-pipe can deliver more power than an X-pipe. Whether it is actually worth the ...
On May 19, Indian space-tech startup Agnikul Cosmos achieved a critical engineering milestone that separates conceptual ...
Researchers demonstrated the first fully 3D-printed, droplet-emitting electrospray engine. The low-cost device can be fabricated more quickly than traditional thrusters, potentially from on board a ...
NASA’s latest generation of 3D printed rocket engines is not just a materials experiment, it is a direct assault on the cost structure that has defined spaceflight for decades. By combining advanced ...
The Chennai startup's latest breakthrough showcases how 3D-printed rocket technology could transform India's access to space.
3D printing, though still somewhat of a niche hobby, is growing in popularity. Much of that is thanks to its adoption in various industries. That includes the automotive world, as there are 3D-printed ...
Students from the San Diego chapter of the University of California test-fire a new 3D-printed engine, making UC San Diego the very first university to “additively manufacture” a rocket engine. The ...
Many firsts: The Agnikul mission was packed with multiple firsts that have significant implications both for India and the world. It marked the country's inaugural rocket launch from a privately owned ...
Printing a model jet engine is quite an accomplishment. But it wasn’t enough for [linus3d]. He wanted to redesign it to have a turbojet, an afterburner, and a variable exhaust nozzle. You can see how ...
Scientific progress doesn't continue apace without some weird people testing out some weird ideas. In a test from the Project Farm, the hypothesis of whether a 3D-printed cylinder head would work was ...
