How do you build a rocket engine?
At @ProtolaunchLtd we think rocket science doesn’t need to be so complicated.
Our team has put together a light-hearted (and overly dramatic!) video of our latest #rocket engine tests, capturing some of the #manufacturing processes involved.
To celebrate space sustainability for #WorldSpaceWeek, we’re excited to share these historical images from @rrheritagetrust & @The_Herbert of E site at @WestcottVP where today you’ll find @ProtolaunchLtd continuing the legacy of rocket testing for space: https://t.co/0k9s7ACTV2
Protolaunch has been awarded a £194,000 project with the UK Space Agency @spacegovuk as part of £2million in funding announced yesterday for #spaceexploration.

We are delighted to share our 2021 #ThamesValley#gamechangers congratulations to them all. We can’t wait until we can all get together to raise a glass. https://t.co/qqFBbBeddx
Matt Escott from Protolaunch talks to us about how connections driven by the BIC helped empower their commercialisation journey, and how the test facilities @WestcottVP enabled them to take their product to the next level @esif1420england
What emerging technology takes the top spot? How can spinouts help cement the UK as a ‘science superpower’? Our new report with @Beauhurst delves into current data to develop an understanding of what it takes for a #spinout to thrive. See the findings: https://t.co/0Ea4BaOwSk
Our time at the Westcott Business Incubation Centre facilitated faster growth in the early days. The team have very fond memories of the WBIC, it's a great place to work!
"While at the WBIC, Protolaunch engaged whole-heartedly with the wider Westcott propulsion community and this led to several significant collaborations and partnerships that have continued long beyond our time as incubatees" - Matt Escott, @ProtolaunchLtd https://t.co/73C0RPbgLo
During the recent hot-fire test campaign of our HILBERT rocket engine, we had a high-speed camera focused on the exhaust. The below clip shows the unintended quirks of testing in the UK during winter with slowmo raindrops being vapourised by the hot plume!

2021 is set to be an exciting year as we seek to expand strategic partnerships within the launch sector. This new video explains our philosophy of why turbomachinery doesn't need to be a requirement for newspace microlaunchers.
