  1. Hypergolic propellant - Wikipedia

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypergolic_propellant

    A hypergolic propellant is a rocket propellant combination used in a rocket engine, whose components spontaneously ignite when they come into contact with each other. The two propellant components usually consist of a fuel and an oxidizer. The main advantages of hypergolic propellants are that they can be stored as liquids at room temperature ...

  2. Liquid rocket propellant - Wikipedia

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_rocket_propellant

    On March 16, 1926, Robert H. Goddard used liquid oxygen (LOX) and gasoline as rocket fuels for his first partially successful liquid-propellant rocket launch. Both propellants are readily available, cheap and highly energetic. Oxygen is a moderate cryogen as air will not liquefy against a liquid oxygen tank, so it is possible to store LOX briefly in a rocket without excessive insulation.

  3. SpaceX Draco - Wikipedia

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SpaceX_Draco

    The SpaceX Draco is a hypergolic liquid rocket engine designed and built by SpaceX for use in their space capsules.Two engine types have been built to date: Draco and SuperDraco. The original Draco thruster is a small rocket engine for use on the Dragon spacecraft.. SuperDraco uses the same storable (non-cryogenic) hypergolic propellant as the small Draco thrusters, …

  4. Titan IV - Wikipedia

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titan_IV

    Titan IV was a family of heavy-lift space launch vehicles developed by Martin Marietta and operated by the United States Air Force from 1989 to 2005. Launches were conducted from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida and Vandenberg Air Force Base, California.. The Titan IV was the last of the Titan family of rockets, originally developed by the Glenn L. Martin …

  5. Aerojet LR87 - Wikipedia

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerojet_LR87

    The LR87 was an American liquid-propellant rocket engine used on the first stages of Titan intercontinental ballistic missiles and launch vehicles. Composed of twin motors with separate combustion chambers and turbopump machinery, it is considered a single unit. The LR87 first flew in 1959. The LR87 was developed in the late 1950s by Aerojet.: 82,319 It was the first …

  6. Masten Space Systems - Wikipedia

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masten_Space_Systems

    Masten Space Systems was an aerospace manufacturer startup company in Mojave, California (formerly in Santa Clara, California) that was developing a line of vertical takeoff, vertical landing (VTVL) rockets, initially for uncrewed research sub-orbital spaceflights and eventually intended to support robotic orbital spaceflight launches.. In 2020, NASA awarded Masten a contract for a …

  7. Multistage rocket - Wikipedia

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multistage_rocket

    A multistage rocket or step rocket is a launch vehicle that uses two or more rocket stages, each of which contains its own engines and propellant.A tandem or serial stage is mounted on top of another stage; a parallel stage is attached alongside another stage. The result is effectively two or more rockets stacked on top of or attached next to each other. Two-stage rockets are quite …

  8. Mass driver - Wikipedia

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_driver

    A mass driver or electromagnetic catapult is a proposed method of non-rocket spacelaunch which would use a linear motor to accelerate and catapult payloads up to high speeds. Existing and contemplated mass drivers use coils of wire energized by electricity to make electromagnets, though a rotary mass driver has also been proposed. Sequential firing of a row of …

  9. Aerozine 50 - Wikipedia

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerozine_50

    Aerozine 50 is a 50:50 mix by weight of hydrazine and unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (UDMH), originally developed in the late 1950s by Aerojet General Corporation as a storable, high-energy, hypergolic fuel for the Titan II ICBM rocket engines. Aerozine continues in wide use as a rocket fuel, typically with dinitrogen tetroxide as the oxidizer, with which it is hypergolic.

  10. Single-stage-to-orbit - Wikipedia

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-stage-to-orbit

    A single-stage-to-orbit (or SSTO) vehicle reaches orbit from the surface of a body using only propellants and fluids and without expending tanks, engines, or other major hardware. The term usually, but not exclusively, refers to reusable vehicles. To date, no Earth-launched SSTO launch vehicles have ever been flown; orbital launches from Earth have been performed by either fully …

  11. T-Stoff - Wikipedia

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-Stoff

    T-Stoff ([teː ʃtɔf]; 'substance T') was a stabilised high test peroxide used in Germany during World War II.T-Stoff was specified to contain 80% (occasionally 85%) hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2), remainder water, with traces (<0.1%) of stabilisers.Stabilisers used included 0.0025% phosphoric acid, a mixture of phosphoric acid, sodium phosphate and 8-oxyquinoline, and sodium stannate.

  12. VentureStar - Wikipedia

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VentureStar

    VentureStar was a single-stage-to-orbit reusable launch system proposed by Lockheed Martin and funded by the U.S. government. The goal was to replace the Space Shuttle by developing a re-usable spaceplane that could launch satellites into orbit at a fraction of the cost. While the requirement was for an uncrewed launcher, it was expected to carry passengers as cargo.

  13. Nuclear photonic rocket - Wikipedia

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_photonic_rocket

    In a traditional nuclear photonic rocket, an onboard nuclear reactor would generate such high temperatures that the blackbody radiation from the reactor would provide significant thrust. The disadvantage is that it takes much power to generate a small amount of thrust this way, so acceleration is very low. The photon radiators would most likely be constructed using graphite …

  14. SuperDraco - Wikipedia

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SuperDraco

    SuperDraco is a hypergolic propellant rocket engine designed and built by SpaceX.It is part of the SpaceX Draco family of rocket engines. A redundant array of eight SuperDraco engines provides fault-tolerant propulsion for use as a launch escape system for the SpaceX Dragon 2, a passenger-carrying space capsule.. SuperDraco rocket engines utilize a storable (non …
