Chinese "Space Transportation" company, Lingkong Tianxing Technology, has successfully tested its new JinDou400, also known as JinDouyun, ramjet detonation engine nearly twice the altitude of ...

In a year defined by obstacles, a student rocket team persevered. Working together across five time zones, they successfully designed a hybrid rocket engine that uses paraffin and a novel nitrous ...

bluShift Aerospace’s successful test Tuesday afternoon of its hybrid rocket engine puts the Brunswick company in position to launch its first rocket prototype, likely later this month.

U.K.-based Reaction Engines has a DoD contract to further validate technology for a hybrid jet-rocket high-Mach engine.

Most simple rockets use a solid fuel engine which, once ignited, burns at a steady rate that cannot be controlled or stopped until the fuel is expended. Hybrid engines on the other hand can be ...

Since 2009, Daudi Barnes and his team at Advanced Mobile Propulsion Test has offered state-of-the art testing facilities for rocket engines on a 2-acre site east of the Durango-La Plata County ...

Lower performance is a downside to hybrid engine systems in general, which is why SpaceDev is developing a high-performance version to rival some conventionally propelled rockets, he added.

A group of Kingston University in London engineering students have developed a rocket engine powered by an unusual but highly ...

Hybrid rocket engines offer perks from both worlds, with simple solid fuel and the ability to throttle down by regulating oxidizer flow. Naturally, [Integza] decided he should try and 3D print one.

The engine uses cryogenic liquid oxygen (LOX) and kerosene as propellents, and the injector head features a "state-of-the-art coaxial swirler" to mix them.

Hybrid engines are not just for cars. New hybrid rocket engines, a mixture of solid and liquid fuels, are emerging as one one of the cheapest and cleanest ways to launch into space.

The 3D-printed hybrid rocket motor, developed at Utah State University in Logan, Utah, ignites both solid fuel and a stream of gaseous oxygen to create a powerful stream of rocket exhaust.
