Title:
Development of a full-scale rocket engine demonstrator for an orbital launch vehicle
Agreement Number:
20STDPK32
Agreement Value:
$1,000,000.00
Agreement Date:
Jun 30, 2020 - Apr 29, 2022
Description:
(20STDPK32)Reaction Dynamics is pioneering a highly responsive launch solution with a novel type of rocket propulsion systems featuring advanced proprietary fuels.
Combined with metal additive manufacturing, this simplified propulsion system is easily mass producible without compromising performance and due to its relative simplicity, its successful implementation could revolutionize access to Space. This project proposes the further development of the company's proprietary hybrid propulsion system to the point where it is at TRL 6, bringing the whole vehicle closer to flight.
