Rocket engine power.

Directed energy effects.

Solid Jet:

A collimated high-density beam of solid pellets.

Solid Jet Engine:

A rocket engine designed to generate solid jets.

Directed Kinetic Energy:

Directed energy in the form of pellet kinetic energy.

Kinetic Arbitrage:

The controlled exchange of kinetic energy between spacecraft in different orbits.

Solid jet engine using a thermal battery and propellant recycling through a skimmer to achieve high thermal efficiency.

Solid Jet Engine

Accelerates and focuses pellets using a proprietary nozzle geometry.

Solid Jet

A beam of solid pellets. The high density of the solid jet greatly reduces energy losses due to air drag.

Not Like the Other Launchers

A rocket can accelerate a payload to high velocity-but it must carry propellant onboard. A gun can accelerate a payload without onboard propellant-but only while the payload is inside the barrel. A solid jet engine can accelerate a payload without a barrel or onboard propellant by transmitting kinetic energy.
