1409 followers · 1106 posts · Server techhub.socialWere a company like #IsarAerospace to succeed in launching its #Spectrum rocket 🚀 , it might go a long way to breaking the #monopoly 💰 #Arianespace has had on #government contracts https://arstechnica.com/science/2023/03/a-front-runner-emerges-in-the-european-small-launcher-race/
...one reason for this is the entrenched launch #monopoly in Europe 🇪🇺 , #Arianespace. The chief of Arianespace could not be more clear: He does not want any #competition for #VegaC and #Ariane6 https://arstechnica.com/science/2023/01/european-launch-chief-insists-there-be-no-competition-with-ariane-rockets/

Wasserstoff ist schwer zu handhaben. Der Trend geht daher zu leichten Kohlenwasserstoffen wie Methan. Auch #IsarAerospace und die #RFA gehen in diese Richtung. #RocketFactory Augsburg setzt auf gestufte Verbrennung, die auch #SpaceX für #Starship verwendet.
Die Rakete von #HyImpulse soll von Paraffin 🕯️ angetrieben werden https://www.spektrum.de/news/microlauncher-das-grosse-geschaeft-mit-den-kleinen-raketen/1842658
