Cubesat Antenna System

Cubesat Antenna System Need: CubeSat satellites by nature are small and require that all necessary systems a equally small and lightweight. CubeSats require a reliable antenna to transmit and receive telemetry to a ground station. The launch pod limits the size of the antenna, and anything that extends beyond the dimensions of a launch pod, such...

System, Method and Apparatus for Cooling Rocket Motor Components Using a Saturated Liquid-Vapor Coolant Mixture

System, Method and Apparatus for Cooling Rocket Motor Components Using a Saturated Liquid-Vapor Coolant Mixture Rocket motor cooling brochure Need: Liquid fuel rocket motors are traditionally cooled using the liquid fuel. Without liquid cooling the rocket motor would typically erode or burn away the inner surfaces of the rocket motor. Hybrid rocket...
