A new type of rocket engine, one that could power a plane from Los Angeles to Tokyo in just two hours, has eluded scientists for decades. Houston’s Venus Aerospace says it recently solved the puzzle.

The Rotating Detonation Engine being developed by Pratt & Whitney has no moving parts, which reduces complexity and costs, and could help enable high-speed, long-range flight with increased efficiency ...

Lockheed Martin's contribution to the enterprise is its high-speed tactical inlet that is designed for a Dual-Mode Ramjet (DMRJ). It's this that allows the detonation engine to act as both a ramjet ...

Venus Aerospace had the first-ever U.S. flight test of a rotating detonation rocket engine (RDRE)—a next-gen propulsion technology that’s been theorized for decades, but never flown… until now. The ...

There’s nothing new about reinforcing a stock V-8 engine’s internals to handle more power. Aftermarket forged crankshafts, rods, and pistons have been around forever. If you know exactly what to look ...
