- Researchers are investigating how quantum computing could be used in calculations to stabilize cyclic ozone within fullerene cages, potentially leading to more efficient rocket propellants with up to 33% increased payload capacity — potentially a savings of millions per launch.
- While the theoretical benefits are substantial, the practical application remains far off due to the immense computational resources required and unresolved technical hurdles.
- If successful, quantum-assisted propellants could revolutionize rocket efficiency and reduce costs, but the technology is not yet ready for immediate implementation in the rocket-space industry.
