This arrangement leads to a few complicated welding and machining processes, but surprisingly these obstacles can be overcome by simply printing a rocket engine on a 3D printer. The current engine ...

[Sam Rogers] and colleagues at [AX Technologies] have been testing and developing a small liquid-fueled rocket engine and successfully used vortex cooling to protect a resin 3D printed combustion ...

However, during the first attempt to launch the world’s first 3D-printed rocket, an automation issue popped up just after the engines began igniting. The company aborted the flight, pushing it ...

When the Terran 1 launches, it will bring to life Relativity’s biggest project to date, a massive 3D-printed rocket larger than any other 3D-printed object ever created to go to orbit.

An almost fully 3D-printed rocket lifted off from Cape Canaveral on Wednesday evening, but ultimately failed to reach orbit. Despite this, the Terran-1 passed key objectives and showed the ...

The startup is betting on a radically simplified production chain, capable of building a rocket with 100 times fewer parts than the competition, and in just 60 days. Its 3D printing platform can ...
