A US-based propulsion company, Venus Aerospace, said Wednesday it had completed a short flight test of its rotating detonation rocket engine at Spaceport America in New Mexico.
In what may be a world first, Venus Aerospace has, for the first time in the US, successfully flown a Rotating Detonation Rocket Engine (RDRE) that uses supersonic explosions to create thrust. Such engines could help propel future hypersonic vehicles.

Mid-Day on MSNFuelling the future of rocket scienceWhen you think of a rocket launch, you probably imagine thunder, fire, and a blinding plume of smoke. What makes that magic happen is precision chemistry. For decades, India’s rockets have relied on cryogenic engines — high-tech machines that burn ultra-cold liquid hydrogen and oxygen.
The U.S. is one step closer to achieving hypersonic flight after Venus Aerospace, a Houston-based propulsion company, successfully launched a test of its rotating detonation rocket engine (RDRE) on Wednesday, May 14.
