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 ...

though it was noted that the body of the aircraft is significantly reducing the available thrust from the motors. It’s a creative design which recalls the SpaceX vertical landing rockets of ...

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 ...

Exhaust vanes and gimbaled engines were used in the 1930s by Robert Goddard. Thrust vectoring is the ability to generate pitch and yaw moments by deflecting the main rocket thrust vector so that it ...

This is a partly graphite experimental liquid propellant rocket motor thrust chamber and nozzle developed in the 1960s or 70s by Reaction Motors, Inc. The graphite was chosen to help absorb the heat ...

The result? A fully self-training, neural network-based thrust vector control (TVC) system that promises smarter and more efficient stabilization in real time. The journey started with a basic 3D ...

The space shuttle accelerates upwards from its launch pad. The thrust \(T\) from the rocket engines is greater than the weight \(W\) of the rocket system. Since force \(T\) is greater than the ...
