Jet engines are relatively simple in their basic design, but advancements in gas turbine engine technology have mostly done away with the cool-looking bucket-type reverse thrust systems.

Cue the development of the 3D printed water jet engine (YouTube link, embedded below). The basic principle of operation is simple. Water is sucked through an inlet, where it is accelerated by a ...

Turbojet engines are an incredible piece of 20th century engineering that except for some edge cases, have mostly been replaced by Turbofans. Still, even the most basic early designs were ...
