Indian startup Deep Propulse Aerospace is developing rotating detonation engines (RDEs) as a potentially more efficient and affordable propulsion technology to enable hypersonic flight, if the concept matures into reliable, flight-ready systems. #DeepPropulseAerospace #RotatingDetonationEngine #RDE #HypersonicFlight #HypersonicTechnology #AerospaceStartup #IndianDefence #FuturePropulsion #AdvancedPropulsion #makeinindia🇮🇳 | Indian Defence Times

This advanced rocket engine design could one day change how future propulsion systems are built! Marshall propulsion engineers designed the Rotating Detonation Rocket Engine (RDRE) to differ from a traditional rocket engine by generating thrust using a supersonic combustion phenomenon known as detonation. This NASA Technology design produces more power while using less fuel than today’s propulsion systems and has the potential to power both human landers and interplanetary vehicles to deep space

23K views · 1.2K reactions | NASA successfully test-fired a full-scale Rotating Detonation Rocket Engine (RDRE). It generates thrust by “using a supersonic combustion phenomenon known as a detonation,” according to the space agency's Marshall Space Flight Center, where the test was conducted.
