    I remember helping design that copper thrust engine about 10 years ago. It looks nice in this video but there was no mention that a big problem was having to cover this engine with a thermal restraint material and then attach it to a nozzle that is yet a different material. Once you do that where everything has variable thermal expansion you get all kinds of cracks and breaks. Oh, and 3D printing a copper alloy is not a reliable for smooth surfaces, causing lots of leaks. Still, good video, good job.

It seems the company you showcased with this new design is incorporating all of these ideas. the same tech I think is also going to be useful for developing the new materials that we need to build with.and this extends to everything we make, on earth and off.

    Art: my dad was an actual computer and rocket scientist. I have a pair of cufflinks that were made from gold discs that were a part of a very early 1950’s computer system. I worked on the design and construction of wafer fab facilities. At one point I became fascinated by an integrated circuit design. I talked them into blowing up the image a thousand times. The resulting image looked like a wild design for a new city. We messed with the colors a bit and had a very large image plotted. I mounted the print on a rigid back and then carefully gold leafed all the parts that were actually gold. Then, using my surfboard fetish, glassed the surface. It is 36” x 48” and a real conversation piece. Science and engineering become art. I certainly see the new organic nozzle design as a base for a glass table. You may be looking at $50,000 for one with documented provenance.

    1:00 small correction - the main reason for multi-stage rockets is that having a heavy high thrust machine push a lighter low thrust machine into a suborbital trajectory that the lighter low thrust machine then pushes into orbit is WAY way more effective than trying to do it all with a single stage. SSTO is itself only BARELY possible from Earth and not worth it for 99.99% of all space missions. Engine efficiency is only a small part of why it's not worth it though, and depending on your needs, there's nothing stopping you from making an SSTO with conventional engines. You just need to account for the inefficiency of the system. Aerospikes already solve the engine bell problem though, if efficiency matters, and they're baked into nearly all SSTO proposals. But again, for nearly every type of mission, you're better off with just a multistage rocket. AI engine designs might look cool but as every rocket company says over and over again: engine designs are a dime a dozen. They in and of themselves aren't the main concern. It's manufacture and execution that matters way more, as well as choosing designs that best suit your specific needs and company goals. So unless this was design with intention behind it to achieve a company's specific goals, it's going to remain a paper engine forever. Cute though.

  • @MrJdsenior

    Everybody wants to do single stage to space, which is easy peasy, relatively. But to realize a singe stage to ORBIT you have to have not only a nozzle that is efficient enough throughout the pressure drop, but a VERY light stage, which is problematical on several levels. One advantage is that you can recover a single stage worth of boosters for reuse, which is less costly. I don't see this happening any time soon though. That rotational detonation engine blows my mind frankly. You get a lot more energy taking the fuel to very high order burn, but the shock loads must be FIERCE, and I would think over the long term they would be very difficult to design for. It sure is an interesting idea, when and if (probably when) they get there. I would expect that maybe materials better suited to the task may have to be designed, no matter the implementation. We will see. Aerospikes have been around for a long time. The problems with sticking something in the middle of a blow torch from hell is obvious, again, materials and VERY effective cooling techniques are needed. The problem seems that it might be a bit worse than keeping an external nozzle intact. At least there one face is allowed to augment cooling with air flow and/or radiation, ultimately, to space. I don't know how much that helps in the total equation, but I expect it is not completely without effect. Not a thermal guy, haven't run the numbers, but just a guess. Maybe interior nozzle flow swamps all of that, and just liquid cooling and material, ceramics I expect, are the only real drivers. Just a few brain farts off the top of the ole pin head, probably not worth reading.

But my hope is AI can help us reach the stars possibly even before I die, and that it will greatly extend our lifespans. I believe Humanity in general is short-sighted when it comes to appreciating our potential, even in the short term future. AI changes everything. If there is a way to achieve FTL travel, for example, it can find a way. This is fascinating and terrifying at the same time. I often wonder how many times our species has gone through this process. I personally don't feel this is the first time. Our myths, ancient ruins etc. tell a long and glorious story. Truth is stranger than fiction. I'm an Agnostic, but as the Bible points out .. there is truly nothing new under the Sun, in a scientific/philosophical sense.

    @@TimothyWhiteheadzm To flip what you said… there isn’t a multi-stage orbital rocket in existence that ignores nozzle performance. Keep in mind no single stage to orbit rockets have ever been flown. There are some concepts though that can use the same engine for all altitudes, which is a problem for traditional engines with a bell-shaped nozzle. Depending on the atmospheric pressure, different bell shapes are required. Engines designed to operate in a vacuum have large bells, allowing the exhaust gasses to expand to near vacuum pressures, thereby raising efficiency. Due to an effect known as Flow separation, using a vacuum bell in atmosphere would have disastrous consequences for the engine. Engines designed to fire in atmosphere therefore have to shorten the nozzle, only expanding the gasses to atmospheric pressure. The efficiency losses due to the smaller bell are usually mitigated via staging, as upper stage engines such as the Rocketdyne J-2 do not have to fire until atmospheric pressure is negligible, and can therefore use the larger bell.

    I'll be impressed when A.I. manages to come up with fundamental breakthroughs... Like sustainable, high net return energy technologies for powering civilization... High density energy storage schemes with a high energy per unit volume for portable use, that's as efficient as gasoline or diesel, and doesn't rely on scarce mineral resource inputs... Computers and networks and server farms that don't draw such a large fraction of aggregate power from the grid... Or maybe even power sources that are sustainable and efficient enough that a grid is no longer necessary for distribution... Psychological regimes that might be used to influence people of disparate beliefs and traditions toward more cooperate, constructive, and egalitarian coexistence. A way to end Ecological Overshoot without destroying the global economy and civilization in the process... Refining existing technology paradigms is low hanging fruit... Let's see A.I. do something that lives up to the hype.

    Be interesting to see where A.I. leads. For myself fluidflow simulation we use at work has been flaky and next to useless for decades . Only now - and by using supercomuter tie in does it produce realistic answers for simple situations. So I would like to know how this accomplishes something as complex as complete rocket engine in minutes. Where did it get computing power from that we don't have? (lab facility where I work is a world hub for supercomputers). Same situation with self drive cars. Even 10 years ago they could produce some impressive looking road skills - at least by first impressions - and might not even crash after a few hours of driving - depending on traffic conditions etc. A decade on - they all looks marginally more impressive - but it is still likely to crash and injure/ kill you by the end of a day's driving. After some initial *wow* factor results they plod on and develop slowly - but in reality we are not that much closer to self drive cars than we were 10 years back. As you see I'm a skeptic. I think AI has all the prospects of occassionally producing something genuinely useful an dinteresting and of being effective mimic of apparent intelligence and creatiivity - without being fundamentally either .

Here we are 50 years later and many advances that I envisioned have been fulfilled, particularly in Computer science, machining, health, and materials. I think we are at the point that we have all the components to accomplish significant advancement in technology. In the past the big thinkers were limited by the materials and techniques to achieve significant changes or advancement. I think we are in need of novel ideas and big thinkers, using modern technology to achieve great new things and real advancement. Maybe it’s time to revisit some failed technology and design that was limited because of older technology. I enjoy your video’s and content.
