As part of its work on the next recoverable launcher, NASA has successfully hot-fire tested electromechanical actuator technology. Electro-mechanical actuators electronically regulate the propellant (fuel and oxidiser) flow in the engine. The new technology is a potential improvement to the older pneumatic and hydraulic-fluid systems currently used by the aerospace industry to drive and control critical rocket engine valves. 4, record 1, English, - recoverable%20launcher
