Typical of modern British innovation:-

"Aerospace specialist Reaction Engines has gone into administration, potentially taking with it the dreams of hypersonic aircraft powered by its hybrid air-breathing rocket engine tech."

https://www.theregister.com/2024/11/01/reaction_engines_administration/

"Furthermore, the UK Space Agency made a £3.9 million ($5 million) grant to the company in 2021 to support the development of the SABRE engine technology."

In 1988, I was working a student placement at #UKAEA #Culham Labs when the government decided to stop funding #HOTOL, the British spaceplane project so, like a cheeky monkey, I plastered the site with sponsorship forms because the inventor, Alan Bond, worked for UKAEA. 1/3
