for Next Generation Launch Systems and Spacecraft

We have lift off! – a lot of excitement in the SSLC workshop this morning. On February 13, 10:05PM PST, The Intuitive Machines Nova-C lander sitting atop a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket, blasted off from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The Nova-C is powered by two propellant tanks filled with liquid Methane and Liquid Oxygen and were built by SSLC using its Pressurmaxx Type-V all-composite cryogenic tank technology. Our next milestone will be reaching the Moon’s orbit. More updates soon. #spacenews #makinghistory

COMPOSITE TYPE-V PRESSURE VESSELS

Type-V Tank Products are all-composite linerless unibody construction Type V pressure vessels. They are built using Hexcel carbon fiber material, and the resin is a Scorpius proprietary cryogenic high performance matrix, termed Sapphire 77.

UNIBODY COMPOSITE STRUCTURES

Structures that act as one unified structure which integrates the propellant Type-V tank and does not require additional support elements of any kind.

COMPOSITE SPACECRAFT TYPE-V PROPELLANT TANKS

This innovation creates a system that, in comparison to the traditional approach, has fewer failure modes, and is applicable to both chemical and electric propulsion systems.

TRIDYNE HIGH PERFORMANCE PRESSURIZATION SYSTEM

The SSLC High-Performance Pressurization System (HPPS) is based on tridyne. Tridyne is a system where very little quantities of GH2 and GOX enrich He which is the pressurant gas.
