In order to be able to carry heavier payloads through deep space, NASA designed a lightweight rocket engine nozzle made of aluminum that can still withstand the heat of launches. NASA recently tested ...

Rocket nozzles are a crucial yet complicated part of any rocket. Their job is to control the flow of exhaust so the rocket gets the maximum possible amount of thrust. This means that nozzles have to ...
