Summary

AI-generated · Aug 25, 2025

Multi-Burn Solid Rocket is a propulsion system that delivers multiple independently controllable thrust impulses from a single solid rocket while preserving the high thrust, safety, simplicity, reliability, scalability, and storability of traditional solid motors. It enables complex flight maneuvers with precise thrust modulation, allows the burn to be cleanly halted and reinitiated, and can place space vehicles into precise orbits.

Key problems solved include converting ignition from a one-time use to reusable, implementing a resettable mechanism to rapidly extinguish a burn, and enabling full-fuel storage for long periods. Market applications span aerospace (including reusable launch vehicles), defense and military, commercial satellites, and space tourism. Los Alamos National Laboratory offers this technology through exclusive or non-exclusive licensing agreements to existing and start-up companies; this is a licensing opportunity, not a call for external development services.

This propulsion system enables multiple independently controllable impulses from a single solid rocket while maintaining the high thrust, safety, simplicity, reliability, scalability, and storability of traditional solid rockets. Key Advantages: Allows for complex flight maneuvers that require precise thrust modulation Combustion can be halted cleanly and then reinitiated Can place space vehicles in precise orbits for optimal performance Problems Solved: Ignition system has been changed from one-time use to reusable Employs resettable mechanism to rapidly extinguish a burn Can be stored fully fueled for long periods of time Market Applications: Aerospace (i.e., Reusable Launch Vehicles) Defense and Military Commercial Satellites Space Tourism US Patent No. 11,859,579-B1 LA-UR-25-26225 LANL Tech Partnerships: Unlock the Innovative Potential Los Alamos National Laboratory offers a wide range of cutting-edge technologies and capabilities that may provide your company with a competitive edge in the market and unlock the innovative potential that can enhance, refine, and revolutionize your products.
