3, 2, 1… Ignition sequence time. 🚀 Or as Clément said it with a sexy, but shaky voice: “Allumage moteur”. Last Thursday we fired Terminator, our stage demonstrator for the very first time, but it is - much more - than just an ignition, it's a first in the world! This test validates HyPrSpace patented hybrid technology at full scale for space applications. The combustion and fluids performance model, the capacity to operate at a full stage scale experimentally confirming the reliability and scalability of our technology. This is a major technological demonstration for the development of our #OB1 launcher, and opens new perspectives for space and defense applications, due to the simplicity and economical advantage of our engine. The rest of the testing campaign will allow a full exploration of the operating range of the technology. Which means more flames to come soon! 🙏 To every single person that trusted us, supported us, followed us on LinkedIn since the earliest days: thank you for being behind us, you’re a real source of motivation. Also, a huge thank you to DGA - Direction générale de l'armement, and more particularely to the #DGAEssaisdemissiles Gironde site and Agence de l'innovation de défense, their team is awesome to work with, compliant and comprehensive. Also, many thanks to our partner SpaceDreamS for their expertise and support ! To. Every. Single. Member of the exceptional team that made this a reality: hands down. You’ve all done an incredible work. You guys are talented geniuses, beautiful smiling souls, as can testify this video. Much much love to you all. ❤️ #godspeed PS: The full video will be available soon on YouTube @hyprspace-tech 😘

"What innovations can contribute to the future of the aerospace industry?" That was the subject of the 4rth Bordeaux aerospace summit, organised by La Tribune. Thank you for your invitation! We might indeed have a clue of a groundbreaking innovation that could possibly highly contribute to the future of our aerospace industry... Would you dare take a guess? 😜 For this roundtable, the "crème de la crème" of COO's Nicolas Billecocq was representing HyPrSpace, you can see him below taking a guess on which innovation is going to reshape the whole aerospace industry soon enough. 🥖 --------------------- "Quelles innovations pour contribuer au futur de la filière aérospatiale ?" C'était le thème du 4e sommet aéronautique et spatial de Bordeaux, organisé par La Tribune. Merci pour votre invitation ! Nous pourrions en effet avoir une idée d'une innovation de rupture qui pourrait contribuer fortement à l'avenir de notre industrie aérospatiale... Oseriez-vous deviner ? 😜 Pour cette table ronde, la crème de la crème des COO Nicolas Billecocq représentait HyPrSpace, vous pouvez le voir ci-dessous en train de deviner quelle innovation va bientôt changer le paysage de l'industrie aérospatiale. 🥖

Flashback on #NextSpace2024! 🌗 A few days ago, we attended a symposium organised by the amazing Way4Space. Next Space 2024 was about going back to the moon, a subject that can't be approached without talking about launchers. 🚀 And that we know... One day maybe, our patented hybrid propulsion system will fly a payload to the moon! But before that, we need to prove the world that we can make it fly to orbit. 😉 Terminator, the big engine you see below, was a huge step towards this goal. And it successfully breathed fire this summer! 🐲🔥 Our engineers were really proud to present it to our guests during the "startup tour" organised within the Next Space event. And from the faces that came out of this visit, we're pretty sure to have convinced this lot already... Sylvain, Tiphaine, Arnaud, Loïc, you guys nailed it. Just a few billions left now! 😄

🚀 Here we come #IAC2024 Milano! 🚀 The two bad boys in the pic below are our best CFD / Propulsion engineers, Raphaël A. & Vishesh Garg! 🤩 They will be presenting a paper on Wednesday the 16th, from 12:50 AM to 01:00 PM in the IP Hall on the subject: "Numerical modelling approach for the development of an orbital-scale hybrid propulsion engine." 🖥️ Also attending the show, Philippe Clermont and Abdourhamane Ibrahim Toure are there the whole week for all the business / strategy aspects, don't hesitate to reach out to them if you want a meeting! Or a small rocket talk... 😁 Last but not least, our CEO & Co-Founder Alexandre Mangeot will arrive on Wednesday in Milano. If you like to debate on Europe's launcher needs in sight of what the Starship is capable of doing, he's your man. See you there! Have a great show! ❤️

So proud of you Clément Arrat! 🤩☃️ Our (now former) Test Director temporarily left the HyPrSpace adventure for 1 year to fulfill a childhood dream that is fairly close to space in some ways: becoming an Antartica adventurer at the Franco-Italian base camp "Concordia". There, he will be a glaciochemist, collecting and analyzing snow samples and atmospheric sensors in extreme conditions (it can go down to minus 80 degrees celcius!). What a thrilling journey... All the team wishes you the best for this extraodinary experience! Come back to us with the eyes full of stars, we can't wait to hear your freezing tale! ❤🧊

Hello there! 😁 The recap video of the hotfire test campaign of Terminator is online. 👀 Link to the YouTube video in comments below. 👇 For those that had already seen the 🔥🔥🔥 post in July, there is some unrevealed footages of the transport, installation, preparation. We conducted three tests in two weeks, and learned a lot each time, especially during the second test where we triggered a safety system, highlighting the sturdiness of our technology. As we're actively preparing the next test campaign, we wanted to thank again every person involved in this successful mission, a major step towards a cheaper access to space. #baguetteone #HRE #Innovation

Ce n’est qu’un au revoir ! Aujourd’hui, je quitte pour une longue période l’aventure HyPrSpace, pour en rejoindre une autre dont je vous parlerai en détail d’ici peu. Ces quelques années passées au sein de la “space bakery” m’ont tellement appris, sur moi, sur mon métier et sur les autres. Les autres, ce sont les collègues et amis. Des rencontres magnifiques que je n’oublierai jamais. Un immense merci à tous ; Alexandre Mangeot, Sylvain Bataillard et Vincent Rocher pour m’avoir donné cette incroyable opportunité, merci à la team essais, la team Terminator et tant d’autres personnes avec qui j’ai adoré travailler. Merci pour votre confiance, votre bienveillance et vos étoiles dans les yeux pour qu'on essaye, ensemble, d'aller les voir de plus près ! C’est avec un énorme pincement au cœur que je vous quitte, mais également une grande fierté d’avoir participé à cette fabuleuse aventure ! Car il s’en est passé des choses, en seulement 3 ans… J’espère que ces quelques photos en témoigneront ! #GoBaguetteOne

Merci à La Tribune pour leur invitation au Space Forum 2024 ce mardi, où j’ai pu débattre avec Stanislas Maximin de Latitude et Antoine Fourcade de Sirius Space Services. La table ronde, disponible en replay sur YouTube (lien en commentaire), portait sur le sujet : “Mini lanceurs, maxi ambitions : qui va gagner la bataille des lanceurs ?” Au-delà d’être un sujet à débats passionnants - ceux qui me suivent savent sûrement déjà mon amour pour la question - c’est surtout un enjeu majeur pour la France et l’Europe. Dans cette course effrénée vers l’Espace, la quasi-totalité des concurrents se battent à armes égales en utilisant une technologie certes maîtrisée, mais fortement coûteuse à développer et produire, à tel point qu’aucun n’a réussi à en faire un business rentable à ce jour. Chez HyPrSpace, nous sommes partis de ce constat et avons décidé d’emprunter une autre voie : la propulsion hybride. Depuis plus de 50 ans elle souffre de verrous technologiques, pourtant cette technologie offre un potentiel incroyable de réduction des coûts, d'amélioration de l'empreinte environnementale et de la versatilité d'usage. Avec notre innovation brevetée, la propulsion hybride est aujourd’hui à portée de main ; nous avons cet été réalisé 3 essais de notre moteur pleine échelle en configuration étage qui nous ont permis de valider nos modèles de performance !

Hey everyone, back to school time! We hope you all had a good summer, even though it can't be as good as ours. Sorry. We will post a recap later this month, because we're here for a whole other subject: "Mini launchers, maxi ambitions: who's going to win the launchers battle?" That's the theme of the roundtable on which our CEO Alexandre Mangeot will be debating during the 2024 edition of La Tribune's Space Forum #LTSF2024. Our business developer Abdourhamane Ibrahim Toure will also be representing HyPrSpace during the event. 📅 10/09/2024 - Save the date! 📍 Toulouse - Cité de l'Espace Looking forward to meeting you all, and discuss about the future of the french & international space industry!

If you are still not in holidays, here are some news about our full-scale engine in stage configuration to cheer you up! In 2 weeks at DGA - Direction générale de l'armement, we were able to conduct 3 tests, and to validate:   ✅ The performance models of our innovative engine configuration ✅ Re-ignition capabilities (as you can see, it re-ignites quite well) ✅ Thrust modulation capabilities 💎Pretty mach diamonds   With Terminator, we are breaking through the technological barrier of hybrid propulsion bringing it from the dark side to the light side #newspace #propulsion #innovation
