Scientists Unveil Wild New Way to Explore the Edge of Space

Scientists often refer to the mesosphere as the “ignorosphere”—a region that’s too high for planes or weather balloons to explore, yet too low for satellites to probe. Despite our technological advances, we’ve yet to find a decent way to monitor this large stretch of air, which lies about 37 miles (60 kilometers) above the surface. But engineers are inching towards a solution—one inspired by a toy-like invention from the 19th century. A Nature paper published today presents a proof-of-concept f

A Review of Aerospike Nozzles: Current Trends in Aerospace Applications

news.ycombinator.com Cardenas 2026-02-17 22:33:10

The design of rocket nozzles aims to expand the combustion gases until the exit pressure matches the ambient pressure, thereby maximizing thrust. However, ambient pressuredecreases as the rocket ascends, posing a challenge for conventional nozzles, which operate efficiently only at a specific altitude [ 30 ]. By adjusting their flow characteristics to the varying atmospheric pressure, aerospike nozzles offer a significant advantage in this regard. To quantify this impact, the thrust coefficient
