E-2’s first 90-second test fire was a success! It performed at 55% power with a low conservative 1.6 mixture ratio as planned. The hardware appears in perfect condition ready for more tests. This is an exceptional result for a first test article (E-2 SN1). The test was also a...

At 2.62, there's film cooling involved, right?

Last week, we pushed our Hadfield MK IV engine and Darkhorse engine test cell to their limits ahead of our upcoming thrust vector control (TVC) and orbital engine test campaigns. It was thrilling to see this controlled test go sideways — literally! Orbital launch vehicles operate within narrow design margins and constrained safety factors, where excess mass in any subsystem directly impacts payload capacity or mission viability. Destructive and limit testing enable us to validate optimal mass-performance trade-offs across propulsion, pressure systems, and primary structures. Key outcomes from this test include: ✅ Structural margins validated – Darkhorse demonstrated stable operation under full thrust loads at gimbal angles exceeding design specifications ✅ Thermal performance characterized – Extended burn duration at off-nominal mixture ratios provided empirical data on regenerative cooling degradation modes and injector thermal limits ✅ Fault tolerance demonstrated – Engine maintained functionality despite progressive damage, validating robustness for anomalous flight conditions ✅ TVC readiness confirmed – Test results validate system integration for upcoming actuated TVC test series l Design optimization insights – Failure mode analysis generated actionable improvements for cooling architecture, injector design, thrust structures, and engine reusability At NordSpace, we push limits. Canada needs to get to orbit with sovereign light-lift launch by 2028 and medium-lift launch by the early 2030s. The only way this is possible is through extreme levels of testing, manufacturing, and investment. Our mission to build a Canadian end-to-end space missions capability will change the shape of our nation both on Earth and in space. If you would like to join our mission, please apply for a role at NordSpace via the Careers page on our website, and join us at the Canadian Space Launch Conference on May 5th, in Ottawa.

IT’S A WRAP! Our block screening for MENTies and their mother figures concluded on the warmest and most heartfelt note. We watched as our participants left the conema carrying not just memories, but the laughter we freely shared, the tears we quietly held space for, and the love that filled every corner of the room. This event would not have been possible without the love and effort of so many incredible people, and we would like to take this moment to express our deepest gratitude. First and foremost, to our MikBrent Global Family, thank you for organizing this very special screening and for thoughtfully preparing all the amazing freebies for our attendees. Your love traveled from different parts of the world just to be felt here, and it is truly something we will never take for granted. Your unwavering support for MikBrent and your genuine love for MENTies made this event a reality. We look forward to watching many more MikBrent movies with you all, and we pray that every bit of love you have given returns to you tenfold in blessings. To our participants, and most especially to our mothers, thank you for showing up. Thank you for supporting the film and for allowing us the honor of creating a space where your hearts could feel celebrated. Your presence is what made this screening truly successful. We hope you enjoyed everything we prepared for you, and we pray that this will be the start of many more meaningful gatherings we can share together in the future. To Mika Salamanca and brent manalo, thank you for building a family that extends far beyond the screen. Your generosity continues to inspire generosity in others, and your story reminds us of the power of kindness, love, and community. We would also like to extend our heartfelt appreciation to our event partners, the brands that helped make this screening even more meaningful. To Jollibee, thank you for your constant support and for always making all of our events truly jollymazing. To Luxe Organix, thank you for the wonderful products that added excitement and happiness to our event, and for putting smiles on the faces of all our winners. The experience was nothing short of amazing. And this is just the beginning. What’s next? Watch out for our upcoming block screening in Bacolod! Love and gratitude, always 🤍
