The Sunbird nuclear fusion rocket concept has the potential to more than halve the time to travel to Mars and cut travel time ...

Howe Industries’ Pulsed Plasma Rocket (PPR) offers a solution to expedite deep space travel, boasting enhanced efficiency compared to existing propulsion technologies. The PPR aims to achieve ...

Developed by Rosatom’s Troitsk Institute, the new technology could drastically reduce current space travel durations, which presently take nearly a year ...

Earlier this month, NASA announced it was funding a revolutionary high-thrust rocket — called a Pulsed Plasma Rocket — that could make crewed missions to Mars in just two months. That's seven ...

The new plasma rocket engine is poised to accelerate spacecraft to speeds of up to 100 kilometers per second (62 miles per second), reducing travel time to Mars from years to just 30 to 60 days.

But 24-year-old engineering student Gary Li believes that he's found a solution with an efficient self-healing plasma rocket. Follow TI: On Facebook More from Science When it comes to sending ...

Russia's state atomic energy corporation, Rosatom, has developed a plasma electric rocket engine that could send spacecraft to Mars in just 30 to 60 days. The plasma engine works by accelerating ...

The inspiration was researchers using rockets trailing thin wires to ... The wire vaporizes into plasma, and if the pulse is fast enough, the Lorentz force hold the plasma together.

Russia has introduced a plasma electric rocket engine that could transform space travel. This technology may reduce the journey to Mars to just 30-60 days. Current missions take nearly a year ...

Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) involves a laser ablation procedure, where a laser pulse interacts with a material surface to induce the formation of a plasma plume that expands away from the surface.
