[KoD] and [Navic] are building solid propellant motors using sugar and potassium nitrate. They cook up the two ingredients along with water and a bonding agent. They find that corn syrup is ...

But the twentieth-century saw a technological explosion of new rocket-propulsion systems, using both solid and liquid propellants. Rocket-powered vehicles were developed for two primary purposes: ...

Magdrive is working on three versions of its space thrusters, and because they run on solid metal, they might one day even be ...

In recent years, North Korea has been focusing on developing more weapons with built-in solid propellants. Those weapons are easier to move and hide and can be made to launch quicker than liquid ...

We’re already quite familiar with solid rocket propellant, but this hybrid approach is much different. When a rocket motor using solid propellant is lit it continues to burn until all of the ...

Team Abstract: The HADES team is seeking to add to the collective CU Boulder knowledge base of hybrid rockets through the development of a liquid-solid hybrid engine. This engine will be used to power ...

using solid metal fuel offers simplified storage and handling compared to gas or liquid propellants. It allows for a simple design that is particularly suited for mass production, creating a ...
