The rotating detonation engine could transform the future of propulsion, whether in the air or in space. Unlike conventional ...

Venus Aerospace has achieved a groundbreaking milestone: the company successfully launched a rocket from the ground using its ...

A supersonic drone that will be propelled by a revolutionary new engine has taken to the skies for the first time. When Venus Aerospace's aircraft does go supersonic on a later date, it will be ...

Houston-based Venus Aerospace has raised $91 million in Series B funding to expand production ...

Rotating detonation rocket engines (RDREs) are full of potential. Alone, they could power missiles at greater efficiencies than any other cycle. In combination with an air-breathing combined-cycle ...

Rotating Detonation Engines (RDE) have been flown by Venus Aerospace. They use continuous detonation waves for propulsion and provide 15% efficiency gains (in specific impulse or fuel consumption) ...

Venus Aerospace conducted its first powered flight last month, reaching Mach 0.9 with a drone. The 8-foot-long vehicle was dropped from an Aero L-29 Delfín aircraft at 12,000 feet and flew under the ...

The rotating detonation rocket engine (RDRE) is the new Holy Grail of the aerospace industry. The way such a technology works promises unprecedented speeds for aircraft and spacecraft, prompting ...

They're noisy, but your next missile or military vehicle might have an RDE (rotating detonation engine) powerplant in it. RDEs are more fuel-efficient, lighter, easier to maintain, and capable of ...

GE and Lockheed ground tested a new air-breathing hypersonic jet engine capable of powering missiles to speeds well in excess of Mach 5 in a smaller, cheaper, lighter, and more efficient package than ...

Hypersonic aircraft, meaning the ones capable of traveling at speeds of Mach 5 (3,836 mph / 6,173 kph), are the next big target of the aviation industry. Fueled by the evolution of the hypersonic ...

Last year, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) quietly unveiled a new high-speed missile program called Gambit. The program is meant to leverage a novel method of propulsion that ...
