WE HAVE LIFTOFF!! At the same time the long-duration hot-fire test of the Valkyrie engine took place, the Nixus team also performed the launch of one of the older Rocketry projects prototypes, the EX-1B rocket in order to validate hardware and software before the launch of the EX-4 rocket of project Nixus. This experiment was
WARR ROCKETRY MAKES HISTORY!! WE JUST MADE HISTORY 🔥 ! 10 days ago, our team successfully hot-fired our in-house designed bi-liquid Valkyrie engine for the first time, achieving a thrust of over 3000 Newtons for around 3 seconds of steady combustion. After inspecting the engine, we ramped up the burn time and conducted a long-duration
