NASA reinvented the Rocket Engine

The rotating detonation engine has been theorized for decades, but thanks to recent material science advancements it may finally be possible to build these innovative rocket engines.

NASA has been developing a new rocket engine called the RS-25, which uses modern materials and manufacturing techniques to improve performance and reliability.

It will be used in the agency’s upcoming Space Launch System, which aims to send astronauts back to the Moon and eventually to Mars.
