For example, Jupiter is the most massive planet in our solar system. It’s so big, it could swallow 1,000 Earths. So it requires a very high escape speed: 133,100 mph (about 214,000 kilometers per hour ...

Robert’s Rocket Project has been going on for a long time. It has been around so long that you can go all the way back to posts from 2001, where he talks about getting his first digital camera!

Flying a thrust-vectoring rocket can be a challenge, and even more so if you stack multiple stages and a minimalist flight computer on top of it all. But [Joe Barnard] is not one to shy away from ...

BEIJING -- Delivery of China's liquid oxygen kerosene engine, named Liqing-2, has been completed, its developer CAS Space ...

The reliable operation of rocket combustion chambers under these extreme thermal and mechanical loads ... a serious improvement in cooling and material behavior are decisive criteria for the further ...

This "propellant rod" is forced into the rocket engine where the two components are separated, vaporised, mixed and burned to create thrust. The engineers behind the new rocket say it would be ...

This high thrust allows the rocket to accelerate faster. These systems also have a high specific impulse. Specific impulse measures how efficiently the propellant is used to generate thrust.

Pin injection was applied in both the gas generator and thrust chamber of Liqing-2, the first stage engine of the company's Lijian series rockets. The engine thrust ratio ranges from 50 to 100 ...
