Students at ETH Zurich have developed a multi-metal 3D printing process that can produce rocket engine components in days rather than the months required by traditional manufacturing. The technique, ...

Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Casting, Composite and Processing Technology (Fraunhofer) have reportedly developed a novel 3D-printing process for critical rocket components. This new ...

Los Angeles, California-based Relativity Space is an orbital launch company founded in December 2015 by Jordan Noone, who serves as Executive and Tim Ellis, who serves as CEO at Relativity Space.

NASA has been working on several different ongoing projects for 3D-printed rocket engine components in metals, as we've told you. Now it's reached another first in aerospace 3D printing: a full-scale, ...

A rocket made almost entirely of printed metal parts made its debut launch Wednesday night, but failed after three minutes of flight — far short of reaching orbit. The uncrewed vessel, Terran 1, ...

Nearly five years after COVID-19 ground the world to a halt, the global supply chain still hasn’t fully recovered. Specialty industries like space travel were particularly hard hit, given the ...

A Firestorm xCell micro 3D printing factory loading onto a C-130 to print Tempest UAV systems at a U.S. Air Force base. Inside a standard shipping container, a "factory-in-a-box" hums to life. It is ...

When Rocket Lab unveiled the Rutherford engine at the 31st Space Symposium in Colorado, it looked like any other space engine. It wasn’t. Rocket Lab manufactured the Rutherford via additive ...

When looked at from a certain angle, space exploration is limited in scope at this time by a single and very important thing: the improper access to supplies. When that problem will be solved, ...

An almost entirely 3D-printed rocket is ready to blast off from Cape Canaveral, Florida, then head for low Earth orbit. Scheduled for a three-hour launch window that opens at 1 pm Eastern time ...
