In the latest episodes of the High-Speed Flight series, Dr. Andrew Duggleby delves into the fundamentals of rocket-based combined cycle propulsion. Stay tuned for Parts 3 and 4 next week as we continue to explore this advanced propulsion technology! Part 1: Covers the setup of the detonation ramjet and the core principles of ramjet theory. https://bit.ly/3Z48ZUB Part 2: Explores rocket ejector theory, detailing how it enhances the ramjet by increasing both temperature and pressure. https://bit.ly/4fDFEY5 #HomeforDinner #HighSpeedFlight

At Venus, our greatest asset is our people. Great people have great ideas, and celebrating their contributions is a key part of our culture. The Venus Aerospace Bright Idea Awards honors employees whose innovative ideas have successfully advanced through the patent process. These innovations play a vital role in shaping our groundbreaking engine technology and stand as a testament to the individuals shaping the future of aviation. We are proud to recognize their achievements.

Great design starts with systems engineering and first principles. From this foundation, it can be subdivided into specialized disciplines with targeted performance goals. In these episodes of The High-Speed Flight series, Dr. Andrew Duggleby takes us through aircraft design at its highest levels. #HomeForDinner #HighSpeedFlight

This Veterans Day, we honor all who have served. Venus Aerospace proudly employees numerous Veterans and we seek to hire those who are transitioning out of the military. The federal holiday was enacted in the early 1900’s and exists to celebrate military veterans from each branch of the United States Armed Forces. As we continue to reshape aviation and the way in which we travel, we recognize the importance of our Venus Veterans and their contribution towards our mission of unlocking the hypersonic economy.
