Centrifugal Magnetic Mirrors could enable commercial nuclear fusion reactors on Earth and are also promising for next level propulsion in space. There is funded near term work for both goals. An early ...

NASA’s push for a new nuclear rocket engine is not just another upgrade to the hardware we strap to the bottom of spacecraft.

Helicon plasma propulsion represents a promising and multifaceted approach in the domain of electric space propulsion. At its core, the technology utilises helicon waves to generate high-density ...

If we are sending manned interstellar missions to other star systems, it becomes very hard to keep masses and power levels nearly reasonable. Interstellar travel missions really work out better after ...

TALLINN, Estonia—As strong demand for engine quick-turn services and hospital shop visits continues, Estonia-based Magnetic Group is actively looking to build a larger engine shop at its Tallinn home ...

Space has a trash problem, with defunct satellites, rockets, and smaller broken bits orbiting the Earth at high speeds. The amount of space junk is only increasing, raising the risk of collision with ...
