General Electric is set to play a key role in the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency’s Vulcan program, which aims to design and ground test an engine capable of accelerating a full-scale hypersonic vehicle to speeds in excess of Mach 4.
ORLANDO, Fla. – NASA is preparing for the final stage of outfitting of the International Space Station (ISS), which will transition it from an assembly project to a full-fledged orbiting research laboratory. “In May 2009 we will go to six crew, which is a huge transition,” said Julie Robinson, NASA ISS project scientist. The station has gradually been built up from a 3kW, single-module structure with no permanent crew in 1998 to a 63kW, eight-module vehicle with three crew members in 2008.
ORLANDO, Fla. – Preliminary findings of an investigation into the August 2008 loss of NASA’s HyBOLT (hypersonic boundary layer transition) rocket-boosted experimental project suggest a software fault was to blame. HyBOLT was aimed at gathering data on transition flow physics – one of the fundamental areas of mystery in the high-speed atmospheric flight regime – but was cut short 20 seconds after liftoff from NASA’s Wallops Island, Va., test site when the ATK-provided ALV X-1 booster went out of control (Aerospace DAILY, Aug. 25, 2008).
