Vulcan Centaur Launch Vehicle
The Vulcan Centaur is an advanced heavy-lift launch vehicle under development by ULA and designed to succeed the Atlas V and Delta IV.
Hybrid propulsion combines aspects of solid and liquid systems, using a solid fuel and a liquid or gaseous oxidizer. The two components are stored separately and react in the combustion chamber to produce thrust. Like liquid systems, hybrids can be throttled or shut down mid-burn, and the separation of fuel and oxidizer reduces the risk of accidental ignition. However, ensuring a consistent burn can be technically challenging.
