Today, 16th of July at 10:30 am Central Time, Aurore Space has hotfired its 3D printed "Polaris Methane" engine made to power the Polaris V1 orbiter.
The hotfire went smoothly apart from the hotfire stand getting some damage.
We have made a first with running the first ever 3D printed rocket engine and running it off carbon composites materials, in preparation for future launch vehicles.
