Ursa Major, a Colorado-based firm, has partnered with Palantir to use the latter's Warp Speed manufacturing OS technology to ...

It is actually using a hollow cylinder of acrylic as the fuel, with gaseous oxygen as an oxidizer. We’re already quite familiar with solid rocket propellant, but this hybrid approach is much ...

Most of that fuel still comes from a specialty-chemicals ... also makes missile-defense systems and solid-rocket motors that need a chemical called ammonium perchlorate to fire.

A solid-propellant rocket or solid rocket is a rocket with a rocket engine that uses solid propellants (fuel/oxidizer). The earliest rockets were solid-fuel rockets powered by gunpowder; they were ...

The pin would hit the primer and ignite the solid rocket fuel. The hammer now does its second job of holding the round in place while thrust builds up. It only takes a few fractions of a second.

which is used to manufacture a key component of solid rocket fuel. Sources indicate that sodium perchlorate can produce 960 tons of ammonium perchlorate, which constitutes about 70% of solid ...
