Once a solid rocket motor ignites, there is no off switch. It burns to completion. That is what makes solid propulsion one of the most reliable technologies in rocketry. This episode of Journey To Orbit goes inside the solid propulsion systems that power Vikram-1 through Earth's atmosphere. #JourneyToOrbit #Vikram1

Vikram-1 had to be big enough to carry the fuel to reach orbit, and smart enough to shed that weight along the way. Nearly as tall as a 7-storey building, getting something that size to orbit demands precision engineering at every stage of the climb, as much as it demands raw power. This episode is about how the team broke out of that loop and the systems that make it possible. #JourneyToOrbit #Vikram1

This episode is about the onboard intelligence that flies Vikram-1 to orbit: the GNC algorithms that follow a planned path and correct for deviation in real time, the avionics network of sensors and modules that act as the rocket's nervous system, and Ramanujan, the mission computer at the center of it all. #JourneyToOrbit #Vikram1

For the second time, Ursa Major has successfully fired our 10” solid rocket motor with highly loaded grain showing repeatable results with rapid iteration, as seen in the motor start up. On the topic, Bill Murray, Vice President of Product and Engineering for Solid Missiles Systems said, “At Ursa Major, we demand rigor, quality, and repeatable results. While we embrace the learning that comes from testing and iteration, our ultimate goal is nothing short of perfection. In just months, we've scaled and successfully static fired our highly loaded grain solid rocket motors from 2.75” to 5” to 7” and now to 10”. This is in addition to our four successful SRM flight tests. This rapid progression exemplifies Lynx: the future of American solid rocket motor manufacturing. By strategically deploying additive manufacturing and advanced propellant technologies, we achieve in months what traditionally takes years. Long lead times of two or more years for SRMs are no longer acceptable. Our warfighters need reliable, high-performance solutions today, and Ursa Major is prepared to deliver.” #FlyFaster

Watch the transition that tells a big story. Our hot-fire demonstration of a potential advanced propulsion solution for the U.S. Army shows a flawless shift from solid rocket boost to ramjet propulsion. This breakthrough supports the Army’s need for extended range and faster speeds, showcasing Lockheed Martin’s offering for the Precision Strike Missile Increment 4 program:

You probably know GITAI for space robotics. Now we build solid rocket motors too. GITAI is expanding its vertically integrated capabilities to support defense-focused LEO satellite constellations, including applications for missile defense. As part of that effort, our propulsion team is developing and hot-fire testing solid rocket motors in-house, using the same rapid build-test-learn approach that has driven our space robotics development. Bringing critical technologies in-house allows our engineers to move fast, learn directly from hardware, and continuously improve our systems. We’re looking for engineers who want to build and test real flight hardware and contribute to the next generation of U.S. national security space capabilities. Join us:

The era of supersonic long range cruise missiles is beginning in Turkiye 🚀 We are continuing to test ramjet propulsion systems developed with domestic capabilities: • Breaking new ground in high-speed, air-breathing propulsion technologies, • This represents a strategic milestone on the path to future supersonic flight platforms.

Rep Eric Burlison on advanced propulsion the US is hiding "If this government has discovered some form of propulsion that is a game changer, I'm going to be extremely livid. We all should be because I think there is technology that is clearly advanced that might have the ability to improve all of our lives."

EXCLUSIVE: NASA Administrator Confirms Nuclear Power and Propulsion Are The Game Changing Capabilities with advances as early as 2028. “We are going to do a nuclear power and propulsion demonstration in 2028, which is, again, it's paramount for someday being able to send astronauts to Mars and bring them home safely. “NASA needs to do what they’re (private industry) not capable of doing, which is moving into the realm of nuclear power and propulsion, more exotic forms of propulsion that enable you to move mass very efficiently to Mars and come back.” LA Times Media Group LA Times Studios

For everyone who thinks the recent explosion near Beit Shemesh in Israel is "too big" to be a static test of a solid rocket motor ... rockets require tons of thrust (literally) to reach space. Watch a US test, for example.

Although there are a lot of rumors, there is no solid reporting indicating that Guano has sided with Chapo Isidro and is now against Los Chapitos. Those claims continue to be unconfirmed or just rumors. The only confirmed thing is that this video is Guano operating in Badiraguato.

Hassett: And in terms of reading through what is and isn't available under that law, then there have been times in the past where commemorative coins have been printed with the faces of living people. And so I think that they're on solid ground. If they decide to do that.

This is what True Leadership is, not this nonsense that is being fed to us by Political Parties today. Leadership is about ensuring that Society is Solid in all spheres. South Africa 🇿🇦 needs one Movement that will champion the Problems of Society properly without bias, that is Patriotism.
