Pulsar Fusion Sunbird first plasma
投稿者: Terrymiller: California
Bro, Pulsar Fusion just hit first plasma inside the Sunbird fusion rocket's exhaust system. That test went down at their Bletchley spot in the UK, and it was streamed live to Jeff Bezos' Mars conference in California. Sunbird is being built to explore nuclear fusion as a future propulsion method, and the goal is deep space travel way faster than what conventional rockets can do. First plasma is a key step on that development timeline. 🔥

UK space propulsion company Pulsar Fusion has reached an important milestone in its Sunbird fusion rocket project by generating plasma for the first time within the vehicle's exhaust system. The test took place at the company's facility in Bletchley, England, and was streamed live to Jeff Bezos' Mars conference in California. Sunbird is being developed to investigate nuclear fusion as a future propulsion method, potentially enabling much faster deep space travel than conventional rocket technology.
