Propulsion

The Propulsion Department is responsible for designing, building, and testing the rocket engine and its supporting fluid systems. From combustion chambers and injectors to feed lines and valves, the team develops the systems that generate thrust and bring the rocket to life. With a focus on performance, safety, and reliability, Propulsion combines advanced engineering with hands-on testing.

Structures

The Structures Department designs, builds, and tests the rocket’s physical and mechanical systems, as well as the ground infrastructure needed for testing and launch. From aerodynamic surfaces and internal frameworks to recovery systems, launch pad facilities, and test stands, the team ensures that everything is strong, reliable, and safe. By combining analysis, simulation, and hands-on manufacturing, Structures develops efficient solutions that enable successful launches — and recoveries — from start to finish.
