There are two propulsion experiments on the Rogue Systems OTP2 satellite. The nanosats database has descriptions of the systems. The current satellite movement is the other propulsion system. I only ...
Background: According to standard physics we cannot travel to the stars in a human lifetime because we need impractical amounts of fuel to get close to light speed. However, a new theory of inertia ...
Back in September, a Northrop Grumman Cygnus XL spacecraft headed to the International Space Station (ISS) with crucial supplies and exciting experiments on board. On the manifest was something called ...
Andrews Space & Technology (AS&T) successfully demonstrated the fundamental operating principles of a propulsion system that could dramatically affect interplanetary space travel, shortening round ...
