Recently, a project testing metal combustion led by the Alternative Fuels Laboratory at Ï㽶ÊÓƵ launched on a European Space Agency rocket.
The project, an international collaboration between the Alternative Fuels Laboratory at McGill, the European Space Agency, the Canadian Space Agency, and Airbus Defence and Space, aims to improve scientific understanding of metal flames, laying the groundwork for a new type of green engine that burns iron powder, with only rust as a by-product.
