Conducted ignition and combustion tests to improve P4SD simulations
Ignition and combustion tests were conducted to improve simulations for liquid rocket engine development on the P4SD research and development platform. Data on flow rate, temperature, pressure, and other parameters related to engine ignition and combustion were acquired. Simultaneously, real-time monitoring was successfully achieved using the mission control system “Yamcs”.

Conducted combustion tests on the CAMUI-type synthetic rubber fuel rocket engine with Letara Ltd.
Collaborating with Letara, ISC conducted combustion tests on a CAMUI-type hybrid rocket engine using HTPB synthetic rubber fuel. We confirmed stable combustion for 7 seconds at a thrust of 5000N and established a technological foundation for developing engines for satellite launches.
Signing ceremony held at the U.S. Embassy with engine development company Ursa Major Technologies
ISC and its U.S. subsidiary Sirius Technologies held a signing ceremony with U.S. engine specialist Ursa Major technologies. Additional engine procurement for the ASCA 1 series and joint consideration of future engines will commence. Aiming to strengthen the space transportation industry through Japan-U.S. cooperation.
