We're thrilled to announce the successful completion of an incredibly rewarding period of propulsion testing at our state-of-the-art Propulsion Test Facility in Westcott, UK!


Over the past three weeks, our facility has been full of activity as we hot-fire tested 17 different hybrid rocket engines. This intense campaign generated a phenomenal total impulse of 41.5kNs.


This achievement is a testament to the dedication and expertise of our engineering team. Working tirelessly under constrained timescales, they flawlessly executed complex test sequences, demonstrating exceptional skill and resilience. Simultaneously, our cutting-edge propulsion testing facility at Westcott handled the demanding workload seamlessly, proving its robust capabilities and readiness for ambitious testing campaigns.


These tests underscore our commitment to delivering reliable, high-performance solutions for the space industry.


Witness some of the power and precision from our recent campaign and stay tuned for more updates as we continue to push the frontiers of space propulsion!
