Gulf aerospace newsletter

The October 2021 issue of the Gulf Coast Aerospace Corridor Newsletter was published Tuesday. The cover story is about the hypersonic cruise missile space race, where Northwest Florida's Eglin Air Force Base is a player. While superior to mature technologies, hypersonic missiles are costly and the Pentagon wants to drive down the dollars. There’s also an article about a new test series that wrapped up at South Mississippi's Stennis Space Center. This testing was for startup company Launcher, and involved testing the thrust chamber assembly. It’s just the latest test showing SSC is a go-to for commercial space companies that want to take advantage of the facility’s extensive rocket engine test infrastructure.
