Just last month we trawled the internet for updates to our coverage of the Dynafin propulsion concept from marine giant ABB. Now the technology has been independently tested, which also gives us our ...

There are many different ways to get to Mars, but there are always tradeoffs. Chemical propulsion, proven the most popular, can quickly get a spacecraft to the red planet. But they come at a high cost ...

The Indian Space Research Organisation has initiated a major propulsion technology program in collaboration with Hindustan Aeronautics Limited and the National Aerospace Laboratories. This tri-agency ...

Finland-based marine technology group Wärtsilä will supply its EnergoFlow and EnergoProFin solutions for ten Bird Class oil and chemical tankers owned by the Singapore-based global tanker operator ...

The global rocket propulsion market is entering an unprecedented phase of expansion, with projections indicating it will ...

Over the span of two projects, researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign investigated using a propulsion concept known as multimode propulsion to get spacecraft to the Moon and ...

A design that led to rapid development for the present concept is the Custer Channel Wing, a largely forgotten attempt to create ultra-short takeoff and landing (USTOL) airplanes nearly a century ago, ...

Jeffrey Gleason describes how to increase the space propulsion beaming range of an ion beam from 0.1 AU to 1000 AU by pinching the ion beam. He also describes getting 50 kilowatts per square meter of ...

Waterjet propulsion is known for its unique features, including high propulsive efficiency, low noise radiation, excellent maneuverability, and anti-cavitation capacity, making it a preferred choice ...

Whisper Aero says its electric aircraft propulsion systems are "20% more efficient and 100x quieter than anything else on the market." They're designed for drones, planes and possibly eVTOLs, and ...

Innovations for terrestrial transportation technologies, e.g., cars, aircraft, and so on, have driven historical industries so far, and a similar breakthrough is now occurring in space owing to the ...
