For future manned and unmanned NASA exploratory space missions, storage and transport of cryogenic liquids under terrestrial and microgravity conditions will play a pivotal role. Transport of ...
NASA’s CryoFILL project aims to produce and liquefy oxygen on the Moon to refuel landers, reduce propellant from Earth and support long-term lunar exploration missions.
Cryogenic liquid storage involves the containment and management of substances at extremely low temperatures, where maintaining thermal stability is critical for both safety and efficiency. Recent ...
The technology, known as Cryogenic Fluid In-Situ Liquefaction for Landers (CryoFILL), is being evaluated at the NASA Glenn ...
Cool running: the experimental apparatus at the University of Twente. (Courtesy: Srinivas Vanapalli, University of Twente) Making hot stuff very cold – and doing so reliably and repeatably – is a ...
LOX pump in action. Click here for a video (Windows Media 9, 840K) Mojave, CA, Thursday, October 21, 2004: XCOR Aerospace announced today it has completed another significant milestone in its pump-fed ...
SpaceX and NASA could take a tentative step toward orbital refueling on the next test flight of Starship, but the US space agency says officials haven’t made a final decision on when to begin ...
Long-haul aviation, like everything else in the human world, needs to be totally decarbonized, and in the race to zero emissions for international airliners, liquid-hydrogen powertrains look like one ...
It's a chubby-looking thing; liquid hydrogen powertrains will take up more space than conventional ones, so the FlyZero team has supplemented the cryogenic fuel tanks in the aft fuselage with a pair ...
Intuitive Machines’ first lunar lander officially lost power today after spending seven days on the moon. The lander made history for being the first American hardware to reach the lunar surface since ...
