propulsion test

In 1998, he was named deputy division chief of Marshall's propulsion test division.

Moreover, two additional propulsion tests must be successfully completed before Discovery is cleared for launch.

In March 1937, the aircraft was assigned to rocket propulsion tests at Peenemünde.

Tasks included flight systems and propulsion tests, hot and cold weather trials, and route-proving flights.

The Rocket Propulsion Test Complex played an important role in the development of the Saturn V rocket.

In 1997, he was assigned to Stennis Space Center as the chief of operations of the Propulsion Test Directorate.

CARDE's attention later turned to long-distance communications and they found the 'Propulsion Test Vehicle' system useful as a sounding rocket.

This was merely a propulsion test, but it was a historic enough event that Riker had accepted the squales' invitation to remain at Droplet until after the launch.

She was later rebuilt to resemble them cosmetically, and is currently on display with the external tank used during the propulsion tests (designated MPTA-ET).

Engineers needed a propulsion test stand to improve the missile, but they were not allowed to spend research and development funds on constructing facilities even for a cause vital to national security.

Lightfoot moved to NASA's John C. Stennis Space Center in 1999 as chief of propulsion test operations.

In 2001, he was named deputy director of the Propulsion Test Directorate at Stennis and in March 2002 he was promoted to director.

White Sands Test Facility offers numerous ambient pressure and altitude simulation stands to test rocket propulsion test systems as well as single rocket engines.

Rocket Propulsion Test Complex is a rocket testing complex which was built in 1965 as a component of the John C. Stennis Space Center.

In 1957 CARDE contracted Bristol to produce a simple rocket fuselage, called the Propulsion Test Vehicle, for studies into high-power solid fuels.

With Aerojet's assistance, CARDE and Bristol developed the "Propulsion Test Vehicle" to test new fuel and engine designs.

The space shuttle Discovery should be ready for launching the last week of September, space agency officials and the astronauts said today, citing successful propulsion tests and the repair of a steering-rocket leak.

AEDC Aerodynamic and Propulsion Test Unit (APTU) is a blowdown hypersonic wind tunnel driven by a combustion air heater (CAH).

The Rocket Propulsion Test (RPT) Program Office manages RPT assets, activities and resources to ensure NASA maintains its core capability of skills ...

The Main Propulsion Test Article (MPTA-098) was built by Rockwell International as a testbed for the definitive propulsion and fuel delivery systems for the U.S. Space Shuttle Program.

The AEDC Aerodynamic and Propulsion Test Unit started out as a vitiated air heater (VAH) conducting over 275 experiments for the development of many different aerodynamic and aerothermal systems.

Because of its important role in engine testing for four decades, Stennis is NASA's program manager for rocket propulsion testing with total responsibility for conducting and/or managing all NASA propulsion test programs.

Bumblebee originally concentrated on a ramjet powered design, and the initial Applied Physics Lab PTV-N-4 Cobra/BTV (Propulsion Test Vehicle/Burner Test Vehicle) was flown in October 1945.
