This coming Wednesday, November 9, 2022, Davide Maddaloni and our PI, Mario Merino, will show us how a plasma rocket works. The workshop will take place during the XXII Science and Innovation Week 2022, organized by the Community of Madrid. It will be a good opportunity for anyone interested to see our laboratory and some of our plasma propulsion engines.
Due to the great interest in the workshop, there are no more places left. We count on you for the next one!
