Australian researchers have created the world’s first 3D-printed jet engine in a manufacturing breakthrough that engineers expect will lead to cheaper, lighter and more fuel-efficient... Read more
British aerospace firm Reaction Engines has been working on an aircraft it believes would be able to take passengers anywhere in the world in just four hours. If that doesn’t sound utt... Read more
Could save manufacturers millions in maintenance costs, lower fuel consumption A new, highly-accurate temperature sensor could save manufacturers millions in maintenance costs, lower fuel co... Read more
Jon Jordan has a big idea but little money to fund it. He has designed a device that uses the exhaust flow from an engine, such as a jet engine, to turn a crankshaft that generates electrici... Read more
GE challenged designers to create a new jet engine bracket. The Maker Movement is a vast and diverse community teeming with passionate hobbyists and DIY entrepreneurs energized to build new... Read more
The technology “offers nearly miraculous potential.” When a current passes between two electrodes — one thinner than the other — it creates a wind in the air between. If enough voltage is ap... Read more
Engineers at GE think they could have a revolution on their hands, thanks to the new jet engine they’ve been testing recently that runs hotter than any of its predecessors. When combin... Read more
General Electric has unveiled what seems to be the thinnest, high-performance cooler for the next-generation of ultra-thin tablets and laptops (pictured above). While this cooler obviously a... Read more
Skylon is expected to slash the cost of launching satellites into orbit more than 10 times. Critical tests have been completed on a revolutionary rocket engine that could send astronauts int... Read more
Bruce Brown has just invented a new technology to make jet engines more efficient. He applied and received a U. S. Patent on his idea. The technology promises to save 30% of the fuel current... Read more
The FanWing is arguably the first entirely new aircraft design developed within the past century. Instead of jet engines or rotors, it uses huge rotating fans embedded in its wings for both... Read more
Its thrust capacity reportedly should allow it to reach a flight speed of Mach 1.4 University of Colorado aerospace engineer Ryan Starkey is currently designing what he claims will be... Read more
