There's a somewhat simple explanation behind the rocket science at play here, but the visual result is astounding.

Rotating detonation rocket engines work differently than traditional rockets to maximize thrust while using less fuel—an ...

A new propulsion milestone has been reached as Astrobotic successfully tests its experimental Chakram rotating detonation ...

Private space company Astrobotic annouced the longest hot fire test of a rotating detonation rocket engine (RDRE), 300 ...

When is an empty tube not an empty tube? When it's a ramjet that uses rotating detonation technology to propel aircraft at hypersonic speeds. A case in point is Venus Aerospace's new Venus Detonation ...

GE and Lockheed Martin plan to get around this by accelerating the missile using a rotating detonation engine, which uses a supersonic wave of detonating fuel that runs about inside an open-ended ...

Astrobotic completed a successful series of hot-fire tests of its rotating detonation rocket engine prototype, marking a key ...

The Rotating Detonation Engine being developed by Pratt & Whitney has no moving parts, which reduces complexity and costs, and could help enable high-speed, long-range flight with increased efficiency ...

A US-based propulsion company has successfully launched and flown a new rocket powered by a unique rotating detonation engine. Although relatively small by rocket standards, the test could pave the ...

I'm not sure if you've heard, but planes are neat. And how could they not be? You sit down, and in less than a day, you can be on the other side of the world. That's also before you get into the ...
