00:00Whether it's lunar landers, interplanetary spacecraft, upper stages for launch vehicles,
00:06satellite engines, or even applications in the military, aviation, and energy generation.
00:12What's next?
00:14Now it's about increasing reliability.
00:17The goal is to keep it running for hours instead of minutes.
00:22The previous engines were relatively weak.
00:25Now it's about scaling up, either by clustering them in useful quantities or by building larger versions.
00:33RDE technology is on the verge of a breakthrough.
00:37With every test, we get closer to the vision of a more efficient, more compact, and more powerful propulsion system.
00:44Who knows?
00:45Maybe soon we'll be flying to Mars with controlled explosions.
00:49While NASA and others are tinkering with RDE's, SpaceX has already developed reusable rockets with conventional technology and regularly flies
00:58to the ISS.
01:00Are we missing the boat here while we're chasing a future technology?
01:04So thank you first of all.
01:09So thank you.
01:09I'm glad.
