Airbreathing jet engine — An airbreathing jet engine (or ducted jet engine) is a jet engine propelled by a jet of hot exhaust gases formed from air that is drawn into the engine via an inlet duct. All practical airbreathing jet engines are internal combustion engines that … Wikipedia
Tsiolkovsky rocket equation — Tsiolkovsky s rocket equation, or ideal rocket equation is named after Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, who independently derived it and published in his 1903 work [К. Э. Циолковский, Исследование мировых пространств реактивными приборами, 1903. It is… … Wikipedia
Solid-fuel rocket — A solid rocket or a solid fuel rocket is a rocket with a motor that uses solid propellants (fuel/oxidizer). The earliest rockets were solid fueled, powered by gunpowder, used by the Chinese and Arabs in warfare as early as the 13th century. All… … Wikipedia
Plasma propulsion engine — A plasma propulsion engine is a kind of Ion thruster which uses plasma in some or all parts of the thrust generation process. Though far less powerful than conventional rocket engines, plasma engines are able to operate at higher efficiencies and … Wikipedia
