Scientists can now snap ultra-powerful laser pulses in one shot. RAVEN reveals distortions instantly, unlocking breakthroughs ...

The new Russian rocket engine achieves higher acceleration than chemical rockets by using magnetic plasma accelerators, allowing for speeds of up to 100 km/s. Plasma thruster. Illustration.

This could mean somewhere in the order of 73,756 pounds-per-foot (100,000 Newtons) like other plasma rockets (e.g., How Industries’ Pulsed Plasma Rocket).

That being said, Howe Industries is developing a Pulsed Plasma Rocket engine design to have 100,000 N (73,756 lbf) of thrust and specific impulse of 5,000. We haven't seen thrust figures for the ...

Pulsed Plasma Thruster Funded By NASA Could Enable One Of The Coolest Space Missions Imagined If we can travel 550 astronomical units, we can reach a ridiculously cool point in space.

Rocket Star Inc. has made a significant leap in space propulsion technology with the introduction of the Firear Fusion Drive. This innovative system, which combines plasma thruster technology with ...

RocketStar Inc. has announced the first successful demonstration of their nuclear fusion-enhanced pulsed plasma FireStar™ Drive. The potentially groundbreaking device upgrades the company’s base water ...

What RocketStar is doing with its version of aneutronic nuclear fusion is using water for the propellant for its M1.5 FireStar Drive, which is a nuclear fusion-enhanced pulsed plasma thruster.

RocketStar Inc. has made a breakthrough in space technology by successfully demonstrating the FireStar Drive, an electric propulsion unit that utilizes nuclear fusion-enhanced pulsed plasma. This ...

Discovery The fusion discovery was first made during an SBIR Phase 1 for AFWERX where boronated water was introduced into the pulsed plasma thruster’s exhaust plume. This created alpha particles ...
