Canada's first orbital-class rocket engine is now being manufactured! Our patent pending Hadfield-150 engine is the largest and most powerful rocket engine ever built in Canada, and the first known Canadian orbital-class engine to make it to this stage. The Hadfield-150 builds on everything we learned after years of painstakingly designing, manufacturing, and testing the Hadfield-10 series, our first regeneratively cooled and additively manufactured liquid rocket engine. Every engine test, both successful and unsuccessful on our Darkhorse test stand at Area 66, retired risk that's now carried straight into Hadfield-150 and sovereign orbital launch for Canada. A few details about the Hadfield-150 engine series: ✅ Designed to power Tundra and Tundra+, our light and medium-lift launch vehicles, and built to scale to Tempest, our larger reusable medium lift vehicle ✅ Manufactured entirely in-house, from design to print to test, for true sovereign launch capability ✅ Produced at Rocket Factory 1, on our expanding fleet of metal additive manufacturing systems at the AMA Lab, including the largest known metal 3D printer in Canada ✅ Designed for reusability and medium-lift scale from the outset, and built to significantly cut the time, infrastructure, manufacturing and cost iterative engine testing usually requires, with room to scale to even larger engines by leveraging the same design ✅ Capable of engine-out functionality, so losing one on an early flight doesn't have to mean losing the mission ✅ Optimized for Canada's Launch the North initiative, to deliver sovereign operational capability in a time and cost efficient manner Initial testing starts later this year at our new Blackhawk orbital engine test cell at Area 66, our private test range in Ontario. Stacked, integrated vehicle testing comes later at the Atlantic Spaceport Complex, our spaceport in Newfoundland and Labrador. Stay tuned for some exciting and fiery milestones ahead! 🚀🇨🇦 National Defence Defence Research and Development Canada Canadian Space Agency Transport Canada NGen Canada

A ton of historic firsts last week. Our Relativity Space team proved more in this first launch than most companies (and even countries) ever have in their maiden attempt: ✅ first methane fueled rocket in the West to reach space, well over the 100km Karman Line (only other is China) ✅ first nearly entirely 3D printed rocket to fly and prove 3D printing is viable by passing Max-Q, the max stress on the rocket ✅ first methane orbital-class rocket to successfully complete stage 1 flight, main engine cutoff, and second stage separation in the West (only other is China) ✅ first-ever second stage ignition attempt during the vacuum of flight for a methane fueled orbital rocket in the West, collected first-ever flight data ✅ continuing data reviews, and will bring learnings to our future rocket including Terran R ✅ one really ecstatic launch viewing experience - here, as close as one can get to the launch pad. INTENSE 12 of 10, the reaction makes perfect sense when being there, surreal 🤯

Humbled to announce the successful firing of our single piece Agnite engine. Agnite engines power Agnibaan’s booster stage. These engine chambers are a full meter long, fully 3d printed as a single piece of hardware and made of Inconel. Agnite engines are driven by pumps that are controlled and operated by electric motors. Thanks to ISRO & IN-SPACe for their constant support and to IIT Madras for being our home turf from which this kind of technology is built. This Agnite engine was printed, depowdered and post processed in the same machines that we inaugurated as a part of our Large Format Additive Metal Manufacturing facility (LFAMM) towards the end of last year. This milestone is also significant for us because it completes one end-to-end cycle of design, manufacturing, assembly and testing of our larger engines, in-house. Amazing work by the team in pulling off a few world firsts here. - world’s first single piece engine of this size being fired - world’s largest inconel only engine - world’s only electric motor fed, semi cryo engine of this size and the list continues. However, this is not a race to be the world's first, it is a race to be the world's best & to be the world's most useful technology for launching small satellites to orbit. This comes right after firing a cluster of 3 semi cryogenic engines that happened last month. Honoured to be working with a team that truly believes in building world class, original space technology for the world, from India.

Humbled to share that we successfully test fired 3 semi-cryogenic rocket engines simultaneously, as a cluster. All the 3 engines are 3d printed as single pieces of hardware - designed and manufactured in-house at AgniKul Cosmos Rocket Factory - 1. As with all our propulsion systems, these 3 engines are also powered by electric motor driven pumps. This test involved calibrating 6 pumps, 6 motors and tuning 6 speed control algorithms to work together in perfect sync to achieve uniform startup, steady state and shutdown performance across the entire system. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time such a test has been performed in India with semi cryogenic engines.

After years of development, testing and refinement, we are printing one of our last Hadfield-10 rocket engines, a bittersweet moment 🫡 More of our team is transitioning toward getting our much larger orbital-class Hadfield-100 engine ready for the test stand, and getting Canada to orbit for the first time with our Tundra rocket. The pressure-fed Hadfield-10 series has been the backbone of NordSpace's propulsion program since our earliest days. It's the engine that proved we could design, manufacture, test and fly liquid rocket engines from scratch, entirely in-house, at the pace necessary to reach orbit. It powered our first successful hot-fire tests, survived our most demanding qualification campaigns, and gave our team the hard-won knowledge that no textbook or simulation could provide. It also powers our Taiga sub-orbital vehicle, which is taking flight in a few weeks. Every experimental lesson learned in its development from combustion stability, regenerative cooling, additive manufacturing, and test operations lives on in what comes next. That knowledge now flows directly into our turbopump fed Hadfield-100 engine, the most powerful rocket engine in Canadian history. Designed to power our orbital Tundra rocket to deliver 500+ kg to LEO and scaling further to 1,100 kg LEO in the Tundra+ configuration. Architected from day one to grow to the thrust levels required for our reusable Titan medium-lift vehicle targeting 5,000+ kg to LEO while striking the right balance between performance, scalability, heritage, and speed of development to meet the Government of Canada's targets. The Hadfield-10's design will also form the foundation of our SHARP Sabre hypersonic rocket's M2S-HyRock engine. The full shift to the Hadfield-100 is a major milestone for us, and it's not just about more powerful engines. The infrastructure we're developing from moving to a much larger facility, acquiring much larger metal 3D printers, developing new test cells, and pursuing rigorous standards all feed in to this next phase of growth for our program. To everyone on the NordSpace team who designed, printed, tested, and refined these engines across so many late nights, early mornings and weekends, thank you. This chapter made everything that follows possible, and the next one starts now.

A Pratt & Whitney F100 turbofan is one of the most successful fighter jet engines ever built. First run was in 1972, it still powers the F-15 and F-16 more than 50 years later. Over 7,200 engines have been built, collectively logging 32+ million flight hours. At full afterburner, it produces up to 129 kN or 29,000 lb of thrust while burning roughly 800-900 litres of jet fuel every minute. The afterburner, it's a second combustion stage that ignites fuel in the exhaust stream to generate maximum combat thrust. This test cell isn't checking if the engine starts. It's measuring vibration, temperatures, pressures, fuel flow, and thrust while a machine producing 29,000 pounds of force is bolted to the ground. What here looks like a routine engine test is actually one of the most demanding demonstrations of precision engineering in aerospace, Each brand new F100 engine is worth roughly $5-8 million, reflecting five decades of continuous refinement in fighter propulsion. 🎥kaydenh0dge

Humbled to announce the successful firing of India’s first electric motor-driven semi-cryogenic engine (video below). This video shows the engine being throttled across a wide range of thrusts by varying the speed of the electric motor. Electric motor-driven throttling allows for higher accuracy and rapid response - important features for handling complex trajectories. Also, regarding flight readiness, this test is a key milestone towards firing a cluster of engines together. Additionally, this system continues to use our signature single-piece engine that Agnikul has always used. Along with the patented engine, many subsystems of the pump were also 3D-printed and assembled at our AS9100D certified facility - Rocket Factory - 1. The motor drives and associated control software were also fully designed and developed in-house.

We’re proud to reveal our powerful new in-house 3D printed Hadfield Engine Mk III - 100% designed, manufactured, tested and flown in Canada by NordSpace. With this new version, we are bringing massive improvements to thrust and regenerative cooling as we prepare for our first flight this year and make Canadian history. Seeing this engine come to life after months of painstaking design, analysis, testing, and refinement was a breathtaking moment for the entire NordSpace team. This version of the Hadfield Engine also marks our first engine designed to transition NordSpace from pressure fed systems to turbo pump fed cycles (currently under active development) and very long duration burns. These would be massive leaps forward for Canada’s orbital space launch ambitions and sovereign assured access to space. Our team has developed unique mastery over metal 3D printing complex aerospace components to produce flawless prints like this engine with challenging internal geometries, angles, and features. As for next steps, this engine will be post processed, inspected, and heat treated all in-house, then shipped to our new Darkhorse propulsion test cell at our Canadian Space Research Range. Keep an eye out for some epic hotfire footage coming soon as we turn up the heat and accelerate our pace of development at NordSpace. We’re just getting started! We will have our three generations of the Hadfield Engine and more on display at the inaugural Canadian Space Launch Conference on April 29th in Ottawa. With only a week left to register, join nearly 200 people all playing a role to bring sovereign space launch capabilities to Canada

Success! 🚀 🇨🇦 At 3:45 PM EDT on Friday May 16th, 2025, we successfully tested both our new orbital Darkhorse engine test cell and our new third generation 3D printed Hadfield liquid rocket engine for the first time, marking a significant step towards Canada’s first commercial space launch. The test ran for 7 seconds at our propulsion test range, a company-owned secure site in Northeastern Ontario, successfully delivering nominal thrust, active cooling, and impulse results. This major test of the Darkhorse test cell and Hadfield Mk III engine lays the groundwork for NordSpace's Tundra orbital rocket, as the test cell is specifically designed to integrate with our turbo pump assembly in the next phase of propulsion development. Long duration tests are scheduled for the coming days, along with refinements to fuel mixture ratios and higher-pressure scenarios to test the limits of Darkhorse and our new engines. Minor upgrades and fixes to address a harmless leak in the cryogenic liquid oxygen line and design changes to our experimental control rods have already been made. Hot on the heels of our successful integrated test of our Taiga sub-orbital launch vehicle back in January, rapid developments and approvals at our spaceport in Newfoundland and Labrador, announcement of the SHARP (Supersonics and Hypersonics Applications Research Program), hosting the inaugural Canadian Space Launch Conference in Ottawa, and more - NordSpace is strengthening its position every day to ensure sovereign space launch is not just possible, but probable for Canada. Our historic first experimental flight is scheduled for 2025 from our spaceport, Spaceport Canada. NordSpace's CEO and founder, Rahul Goel, said “This successful test is not only a testament to NordSpace’s unmatched technical competency, but also to the success of our new project management framework, design philosophy, and engineering mindset used to deliver results for complex projects on time and within budget. Success on the first try with countless potential sources of failure is not common in the development of complex rocket systems, but our team succeeded by prioritizing first principles engineering. This test confirmed that we do have the right stuff, and that we will deliver this incredibly important sovereign launch capability for all Canadians. Like the land, air, and sea, space is no longer some final frontier for Canada. Space is an essential domain we must unlock, and launch a capability we must own. Without it, we are jeopardizing not only our security, sovereignty and economy, but are also relegating Canada to a participatory instead of a leadership role on the world stage. We must not let this happen.”

Like the land, air, and sea, space is no longer some final frontier for Canada. Space is an essential domain we must unlock, and launch a capability we must own. Without it, we are jeopardizing not only our security, sovereignty and economy, but are also relegating Canada to a participatory instead of a leadership role on the world stage. We must not let this happen.”

Quick start of engines is important to achieve higher payload capability and better overall control of the vehicle after stage separation. We successfully demonstrated a quick start of our 1 meter long, single piece, fully 3d printed, semi cryogenic Agnite engine. The angular acceleration (rotations per second gained every second) that was achieved here is truly humbling. One advantage of liquid propellant rocket engines is that the lower stage of the vehicle can be started, checked and then flown on the launchpad. Such a procedure demands extremely rapid pump ramp up times - this is what this test validated for us. We are extremely grateful to have the opportunity to be building world class, original space technology from India, for the world with the support of IIT Madras ISRO & IN-SPACe From here on, the acceleration of engines to reach steady state will likely consume lesser and lesser fuel. #Agnibaan #RocketEngineCluster #ElectricPumpFedEngines #Agnilet #SinglePieceEngine #3dprinting #RocketEngineTest #AdditiveManufacturing #Agnikul #AgnikulCosmos #StartupIndia #MakeinIndia #madeinIndiaForTheWorld Srinath Ravichandran MOIN SPM Satyanarayanan Chakravarthy IIT Madras IITMRP IIT Madras Incubation Cell Technology Development Board DSTIndia Anusandhan National Research Foundation TIDCO Startup India StartupTN Guidance Tamil Nadu Kerala Startup Mission SIPCOT

For years, NordSpace has been building towards one goal: launching Canadian payloads on Canadian rockets from Canadian soil in a way that’s technologically scalable and commercially sustainable through painstaking vertical integration. Today, that vision is rapidly taking shape and we are pleased to share this inspiring video preview of what Canada’s historic first sovereign orbital space launch will look like. Enjoy! Tundra is NordSpace’s domestically designed, built, and operated light-lift responsive orbital rocket. It can carry up to 1,100 kg fully optimized to Low Earth Orbit (LEO) powered by our proprietary Hadfield rocket engines that are 3D-printed, regeneratively cooled, and pump fed representing the most powerful orbital-class propulsion system in Canada. The modular architecture means the same engine powers both the multi-engine first stage and the vacuum-optimized second stage, reducing complexity while creating a direct scaling path toward our future reusable Titan medium-lift vehicle, capable of 5,000+ kg to LEO. The Atlantic Spaceport Complex (ASX), under construction in Newfoundland and Labrador, is positioned at 46 degrees latitude providing launch access to polar, sun-synchronous, and mid-inclination orbits with the widest range of nominal launch inclinations of any Canadian spaceport. It’s the only fully Canadian-owned and purpose-built commercial orbital launch facility in the country with the highest approved launch cadence and safety distances allowing us to maximize the efficiency, reliability, scalability, and unit economics of our entire launch program. What distinguishes NordSpace is our commitment to vertical integration and first principles approach to business and technology. Rockets, spaceport, and spacecraft are all designed, manufactured, and operated in Canada by one streamlined team. We have already demonstrated flight-ready propulsion, completed integrated rocket tests, and have our first pathfinder satellite, Terra Nova, manifested for launch in 2026 with our edge-AI imaging payload (Chronos) for space domain awareness nd our electric propulsion system (Zephyr-EP). With recently announced $8.3 million in Phase 1 federal funding through the Department of National Defence’s Launch the North initiative, NordSpace is targeting Initial Operational Capability by 2028. Canada is about to become a true spacefaring nation, and our future on Earth and in space will never be the same. Let’s give’r! 🇨🇦🚀 National Defence Defence Research and Development Canada Canadian Space Agency

French beauty 1939 Delahaye Type 165 Cabriolet Coachwork by Figoni & Falaschi - Delahaye only built six 12-cylinder Type 165 models in the late 1930s, as production variants of the successful Type 145 competition car. This stunning Figoni et Falaschi-bodied cabriolet was built to represent France at the 1939 New York World’s Fair, an exposition promoted with the slogan “Dawn of a New Day”. While the engine was not completed in time for its display, the modernity and sublime beauty of this car’s flowing styling drew throngs of admirers from the press and public alike. Emile Delahaye was born in Tours, France in 1843. He studied engineering in Angers, France. In 1869 he began work with his engineering degree in applied arts and crafts. Emile Delahaye began business in Tours, France in the middle of 19th Century for the purpose of constructing engines for the ceramic industry. The company branched out and began constructing mechanical appliances such as pumps and engines. In 1888, Delahaye designed an internal combustion engine for the shipping industry. It was not until 1896 that Automobile production began for Delahaye. His first automobiles produced were powered by belt-driven single and twin cylinder engines. Emile used motor racing to promote his vehicles. In 1896, Emile Delahaye entered the Paris-Marseilles race. Not only did he enter a vehicle his company had created, but he entered as the driver. The results were astounding, which truly speaks highly of the caliber and quality of the automobile. The demand for the vehicles began pouring-in and a second factory was opened. After the racing success of its Type 145, Delahaye created the production version, the 12-cylinder Type 165. Two Type 165s were built, and the first was shown in October 1939 at the Paris Auto Salon, the last salon before the war. The second 165 – this cabriolet, with body by Figoni and Falaschi, was so emblematic of 1930s French design that it represented the nation at the 1939 New York World’s Fair. Shipped without an engine because it could not be built in time for the show, an engine sheel, without internals was used instead. The engine-less body was impounded by US Customs when Europe became embroiled in WWII. With Europe engulfed by war by the World’s Fair’s close in 1940, the U.S. Custom’s impounded the Delahaye in New York for the duration of the conflicts. In 1946 Beverly Hills car dealer Roger Barlow purchased the car at public auction, and later that year the Type 165 was fitted with a tuned Cadillac engine. Following his death, it was abandoned by his widow in the 1970s and sold to a tow-truck driver for $1200. After three decades of trading hands at a public auction and receiving a Cadillac engine, it eventually wound up at a used car lot in Honolulu until it was bought by a US military serviceman. It took four years of negotiation, but Peter Mullin and Jim Hull eventually purchased the car in 1985 and spearheaded its restoration. The original engine sheel was tracked back to Count Hubertus von Doenhoff and bought. New engine internals were created from original drawings to finally give the 165 the fully-working engine it was intended to have. This car is now owned by Peter and Merle Mullin and the Peter Mullin Automotive Museum Foundation, where is its displayed in Oxnard, California. © Cars & Motorbikes Stars of the Golden Era #archaeohistories
