Engineers at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Alabama conducted a test of a new 3D-printed rocket nozzle designed for deep space. The test was conducted as part of NASA's Reactive Additive ...

In order to be able to carry heavier payloads through deep space, NASA designed a lightweight rocket engine nozzle made of aluminum that can still withstand the heat of launches. NASA recently tested ...

Lightweight rocket components mean more ambitious missions beyond Mars are possible. Engineers at NASA have managed to construct lighter rocket parts that don't melt using 3D printing and a novel ...

NASA's Reactive Additive Manufacturing for the Fourth Industrial Revolution (RAMFIRE) project test-fired a 3D-printed engine nozzle at Marshall Space Flight Center in Alabama. See the test in ...

D printing is revolutionizing rocket science by enabling on-demand space launches and advancing technological capabilities.

Sending rockets to the Moon, Mars, and beyond with humans on board boils down to essentially one thing: being capable of sending with them enough supplies to ensure survival. And that can only be done ...

Collaborating with material and AM developers, the space agency applied a new aluminum alloy and laser powder directed-energy deposition to produce a large-scale rocket engine nozzle with integral ...

The alloy could be used in future missions to the moon and Mars and can withstand high temperatures while reducing the weight and cost of components. Relativity Space’s Terran 1 became the first ...

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — A rocket made almost entirely of 3D-printed parts remained on the pad Wednesday after its debut launch attempt was aborted at the last minute. California-based Relativity Space ...

WASHINGTON — The Pentagon on Sept. 26 announced three contracts aimed at beefing up U.S. production of solid rocket motors ...
