Honored to be a finalist for the 2023 Houston Innovation Awards! This year we join some incredible companies in the "Hardtech Business" category - these are innovative companies developing and commercializing a physical technology.
The RDRE is a revolutionary new technology that has the potential to change all of that. It offers a 15% increase in efficiency over traditional rocket engines, which could make hypersonic flight a reality for commercial travel.
WE LIVE IN THE FUTURE!
@VenusAerospace
is building a spaceplane called "Stargazer" that will fly passengers from LA to Tokyo in ONE HOUR! (right now it takes ~12)
More details:
-- max speed of just under 7000mph
-- holds 12 passengers
-- will fly at 170K feet
For 60 years, rocket engine technology has made only incremental improvements. A 0.1% increase in efficiency has been considered a major success, and it has taken millions of dollars and years of effort from the world's best rocket scientists to achieve.
