An aeronautical propulsion system including a turbine engine having a fan and an electric motor drivingly coupled to at least one of the fan or the turbine engine. The aeronautical propulsion system additionally includes a fuel cell for providing electrical energy to the electric motor, the fuel cell generating water as a byproduct. The aeronautical portion system directs the water generated by the fuel cell to the turbine engine during operation to improve an efficiency of the aeronautical propulsion system.
