Keep up the good work Ellis! Appreciate your research and good to have solid pi’s on here for any new investors looking in

Here you go lag. Of course, we know per twitter, neill visited harwell last year. Best ellis.

SABRE (Synergetic Air Breathing Rocket Engine[1]) is a concept under development by Reaction Engines Limited for a hypersonicprecooled hybrid air-breathing rocket engine.[4][5] The engine is being designed to achieve single-stage-to-orbit capability, propelling the proposed Skylon spaceplane to low Earth orbit. SABRE is an evolution of Alan Bond's series of liquid air cycle engine (LACE) and LACE-like designs that started in the early/mid-1980s for the HOTOL project.[6]

The design comprises a single combined cycle rocket engine with two modes of operation.[3] The air-breathing mode combines a turbo-compressor with a lightweight air precooler positioned just behind the inlet cone. At high speeds this precooler cools the hot, ram-compressed air leading to a very high pressure ratio within the engine. The compressed air is subsequently fed into the rocket combustion chamber where it is ignited along with stored liquid hydrogen. The high pressure ratio allows the engine to provide high thrust at very high speeds and altitudes. The low temperature of the air permits light alloy construction to be employed and allow a very lightweight engine—essential for reaching orbit. In addition, unlike the LACE concept, SABRE's precooler does not liquefy the air, letting it run more efficiently.[2]

After shutting the inlet cone off at Mach 5.14, and at an altitude of 28.5 km,[3] the system continues as a closed-cycle high-performance rocket engine burning liquid oxygen and ;liquid hydrogen from on-board fuel tanks, potentially allowing a hybrid spaceplane concept like Skylon to reach orbital velocity after leaving the atmosphere on a steep climb.

An engine derived from the SABRE concept called Scimitar has been designed for the company's A2 hypersonic passenger jetproposal for the European Union-funded LAPCAT study.[7]

https://apple.news/A52tohn-pQdKPft-fp6HIRAThe thrust of this - EVs not truly economic yet is true.(Even though he does overlook sales could continue in the hybrid and petrol sectors).Can we and Zap n Go get next gen out there and soon?

Lol v good superg. On his way again ? Best ellis

[laginaneil] 16/1/2019 21:58

Good evening folks,

Ellis you just touched on one of my pet likes - Reaction Engines Ltd !

For those not aware an engine called 'Sabre' is their baby.

The technology in this engine is mind blowing, have a Google about it.

If that gets into production it could make Elon Musks reusable rocket 'old hat'

Tweet pic with meeting yesterday at house of commons. No way of telling for certain, but back of balding mans bonce in clear view ! Speculating. Best ellis

I wish he would stop flying around all over the place my drone tracking him is causing a few problems at the airports.

Lol fest. That's a new one on me ! Is that a fest original or in common usage your way ? Best ellis

Ellis, if I ever wear a tie and a belt on the same day, I look like sausages.
