The record for sustained combustion in a 3D printed rocket engine was broken by NASA

NASA was able to create a very high efficiency through its rotary explosion rocket engine, which will eventually have many applications in landing on the moon and Mars and performing deep space maneuvers.

According to Tekna's technology and technology news service, NASA managed to take its revolutionary new engine technology called RDRE one step forward in a new record at the Marshall Space Flight Center. In this center, engineers managed to produce this rotary explosion rocket engine through 3D printing and keep it on for 251 seconds with the possibility of producing 2,631 kg of force.

NASA plans to change the design of the rocket engine by producing new engines and instead of a combustion chamber, it will use fuel and oxygen in one engine and a gap between two cylinders in a coaxial manner. This combined reaction and the resulting shock wave will generate enormous heat and pressure. If this combustion is stable, the revolutionary engine made by NASA can produce very high efficiency with high power. According to NASA, the new test of this ignition can be used in the future for the landing of the lander or combustion in space in missions to the moon or Mars due to having the right power and time.

Of course, according to NASA, this technology will need a lot of time to be used in real life. Also, combustion tests should be performed on the scale of larger engines and include different forces in different categories.
