Three-dimensional printing technologies are developing day by day and are used in various fields. Now for the first time information from the US 3D printing a rocket and reveals that it will be sent into space.

based in California Relativity space, the company behind this groundbreaking rocket. The giant aerospace company announced in a recent statement that it has licensed the world’s first 3D-printed rocket. The launch date of the rocket into space has also been announced.

The rocket will go into space on March 8

The company, which managed to obtain a license from the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), announced that the rocket, dubbed ‘Terran 1’, is ready to go into space. The rocket, which pioneered aviation, Wednesday March 8 It will launch from Cape Carnival Space Force Station in Florida. Of course, it should be noted that the launch date may change depending on the weather.

Tim Ellis, one of the company’s founders, said in his statements: “It has indeed been a frenzied journey to get to this point, and certainly more difficult than I imagined. I can say that my team and I have very different feelings about this historic launch. The future for Relativity Space looks bright.” used his words.

Relativity Space planned to do one final test before launch; but it was abandoned. A company spokesperson also told SpaceNews that after assessing the risk of wear and tear, they decided to launch an orbital launch immediately because they would have to abort the mission if something went wrong. spokesman for the flight that they trust the missile also added.

Terran 1, 33.5 meters high, could be revolutionary for the industry

Dubbed “Good Luck, Have Fun,” the mission aims to test this lightweight rocket by launching it into orbit. 2 levels Terran 1; 33.5 meters high, 2.8 meters wide and 9,280 kg by weight. During the first flight of the rocket, will not bear the burden let’s add.

The company also states that 85% of the rocket, which it describes as “the largest 3D-printed object developed for such a purpose,” is 3D-printed, adding that it has nine Aeon engines in the first stage and an Aeon Vac engine in the second. Terran 1 for propulsion liquid oxygen and liquefied natural gas applications. Relativity Space continues its work without slowing down to 3D print 95% of the rocket.

Missile manufacturers have tried this kind of approach before, but nothing on this scale has been seen before. Of course, this rocket, which is quite experimental, has never experienced anything like it. no guarantee of success. Together we will see if it can withstand the G-force and turbulence. If successful, it must be said that a groundbreaking development in the sector will take place.

Relativity Space is already starting to gain an important place in the industry. Company sends a satellite with Terran 1 with NASA had signed the deal. In addition, it is completely reusable, produced by 3D printing. Terran R He also worked on a rocket named It is said that this rocket, which already has $1.2 billion in contracts, may even carry a payload to Mars in the future.
