The creators of Climate Impulse have unveiled the progress they have made on the design and building of the experimental, liquid hydrogen-powered craft, ...

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

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 ...

The goal for Climate Impulse is to take off unassisted, fly some 40,000 kilometers (about 25,000 miles) around Earth along the Equator at a gentle speed of about 200 kilometers per hour (125 mph), and ...

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.

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

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

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 ...

The rocket uses hydrogen as fuel, but is still in early stages of its development and will likely take several years before it can be used for a human mission to Mars. Current rocket engines use ...
