A powerful new plasma engine has just been unveiled by Chinese engineers – and it is expected to propel China ahead of the United States in the race to develop plasma technology for Mars and ...

The new plasma rocket engine is poised to accelerate spacecraft to speeds of up to 100 kilometers per second (62 miles per second), reducing travel time to Mars from years to just 30 to 60 days.

In actuality, the procedure is comparable to the plasma engine demonstration we witnessed two weeks ago. In 1929, Albert Einstein postulated that a nuclear fusion-based “proton engine” would be ...

Russia has developed a plasma electric rocket engine capable of significantly reducing travel time to Mars. Current missions take nearly a year, but this new propulsion system could complete the ...

The world’s first oblique detonation engine (ODE) powered by standard aviation kerosene has been successfully tested by Chinese scientists, marking a potential game-changer in hypersonic ...

Russian scientists have announced the development of a plasma-powered rocket engine that could potentially reach Mars within a few months. According to the Russian news outlet Izvestia, this ...
