An artificial intelligence engineer called Noyron has successfully designed, manufactured, and tested one of the most challenging rocket engines in the aerospace industry: a cryogenic aerospike ...

Interestingly, the rocket engine was created entirely by an advanced artificial intelligence system. LEAP 71’s “Noyron,” a powerful Large Computational Engineering Model, autonomously generated the ...

In a feat that can only be described as legendary, and after many months and a catastrophic setback, Polaris Spaceplanes has finally accomplished something that's never been done before: lit the fuse ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: The aerospike engine—which uses air pressure to shape the downward force needed to launch a spacecraft—has been on the cusp of entering mainstream ...

Showing how far AI engineering has come, a new aerospike engine burning oxygen and kerosene capable of 1,100 lb (5,000 N) of thrust has successfully been hot-fired for 11 seconds. It was designed from ...

The aerospike engine holds great promise for spaceflight, but for various reasons, has remained slightly out of reach for decades. But thanks to Leap 71, the technology has moved one step closer to a ...

Aerospike rocket engines are the stuff of legend in the space industry. Conceived in the 1960s, their unique spiked-nozzle design promises better efficiency, reusability, and performance at all ...

AI is one of the most misused tools in modern technology, which is why whenever I see it doing something actually useful and cool I like to point at it and loudly scream "More like this, please!". In ...
