The US and European countries are planning to phase out the toxic hydrazine fuel used for satellites. Manastu Space has ...

This is hydrazine, and it's the toxic, carcinogenic, potentially explosive chemical concoction powering satellites across the globe and beyond.

GPIM is the nation's first mission to exhibit, in a relevant space environment, an alternative to the highly toxic and corrosive hydrazine fuel commonly used by spacecraft today.

The Navy's going to fire a missile at a broken satellite to keep it from crashing into the Earth and spilling hydrazine, a toxic rocket fuel. Whoa. There's a high holy-cow factor here, we have to ...

This transforms the fuel into a brittle, glass-like solid, but it doesn’t cause the fuel to expand like frozen water or hydrazine.

Conventional fuel cells generate electricity by oxidizing hydrogen, but the inorganic alkaline liquid hydrazine (N2H4) promises higher energy densities and is thus being considered for new types ...

There was additional evidence that the missile was a perfect strike. "We have a fireball and given that there's no fuel, that indicates … a hydrazine fire," he said.

But occasionally, in order to adjust the ever-spinning wheels without changing orientation, the spacecraft would use hydrazine fuel to fire thrusters.

Figuring out how much fuel remains in the Mars Odyssey spacecraft turned out to be more complicated than NASA engineers were expecting.

By using hydrazine hydrate, which consists of only hydrogen and nitrogen, as the fuel, and developing new materials for the electrode catalyst, Daihatsu achieved both an output density of 0.50 W ...

Since 2012, the folks over at NASA have been working on developing a high performance "green" rocket propellant it hoped to one day use as an alternative to the incredibly toxic hydrazine fuel ...
