Skyroot Aerospace has successfully completed the first static test of its KALAM 1200 solid rocket motor, the first stage of ...

ISRO on Friday announced that Skyroot Aerospace has successfully carried out the first static test of its powerful KALAM 1200 ...

India’s space ambitions got a huge boost in the Independence week as Skyroot Aerospace successfully test-fired the first ...

It may be tough to believe, but solid propellants have been used in rockets since at least the 13th century, beginning with the Chinese. Now, Purdue University researchers are exploring several ...

This paper describes the instrumented test firing of a rocket that seeks to combine the throttleability of a liquid-fueled engine with the simplicity of a solid motor. The concept is that a ...

A solid rocket or a solid fuel rocket is a rocket with a motor that uses solid propellants (fuel/oxidizer). The earliest rockets were solid fuelled, powered by gunpowder, used by the Chinese in ...

When compared to more simplistic solid-propellant rockets, the higher mass of the Mojave Sphinx puts the maximum altitude of the 96 inch (2.4 meter) long rocket at around 10,000 feet (3 kilometers).

Solid rocket motors like the P120C are a relatively rare breed these days. Most major rockets rely on engines that run on cold liquid propellants, like cryogenic oxygen and hydrogen.

This is a mandrel around which solid propellants for rocket motors are formed. It was used for this purpose by the Atlantic Research Corporation (ARC). Founded shortly after World War II, ARC became a ...

[Joe Barnard] made a solid propellant rocket motor, and as one does in such situations, he put it through its paces on the test stand. The video below is not about the test, nor is it about the ...

Thermodynamic Properties of Hydroxylammonium Nitrate-Based Electric Solid Propellant Plasma. Journal of Thermophysics and Heat Transfer, 2020; 1 DOI: 10.2514/1.T5921 ...

Unlike solid-propellant rockets that cannot adjust their flow of fuel, liquid-propellant rockets have significantly greater control over their flight, with some such as SpaceX's Falcon 9 capable ...
