Swiss aviation pioneer Bertrand Piccard is developing a plane powered by liquid hydrogen after a much-hyped flight in 2015 ...

Tests are planned this year on the fuel cells and ... doing this right. Liquid hydrogen, until now, has perhaps most prominently been known as a propellant to blast rockets into space.

Electromagnetic Systems has successfully tested nuclear fuel that could power future rapid space missions, including trips to Mars. Collaborating with NASA, these tests proved the durability of the ...

In most rocket engines, liquid hydrogen fuel and liquid oxygen oxidizer are pumped into a combustion chamber, where they ignite and produce hot exhaust to propel the rocket. A plasma rocket ...

While many scientists are looking into theoretical space engines, others are focusing on the tried and true—such as plain old-fashioned engines that burn rocket fuel. In this new study ...

The hydrogen aircraft market is driven by factors such as the growing emphasis on sustainable aviation, increasing regulatory support for zero-emi ...

If humanity is ever to spread out into the Solar System, we're going to need to find a way to put fuel ... the hydrogen back into the system, while the oxygen can be sent off for use in rockets.

Conventional rockets (the kind you see blasting off at Cape Canaveral) use a mixture of liquid hydrogen fuel and liquid oxygen oxidizer, ignited in a combustion chamber. As the fuel burns ...

Developed by Rosatom’s Troitsk Institute, the new technology could drastically reduce current space travel durations, which ...

Researchers from the UPC’s Space Exploration Laboratory are contributing to the development of advanced technologies for the ...
