NASA is about to perform another test on Space Shuttle main engine the RS-25..

The RS-25 will be used in the Space Launch System for our trip to Mars. The SLS will use four RS-25 engines and two solid rocket boosters.
We're about to burn through a shitload of liquid hydrogen over here.
I'll get some action shots or a video from the viewing stand for the OT.
30 sec video of the test

Pretty sure they already know the space shuttle engines work....

are you at SSC?

Yes, we do, but it's an R&D engine on one of the test stands and we are constantly tweaking components and other variables to maximize thrust output.

My dream job was to be a custodial engineer at Stennis. I'd mop up puke all day just to say I was working for NASA.

These are new expendable versions. They are also being testing in different clusters of 4 and 5, rather than the 3 used on the space shuttles.

What time? I can hear them at my house when done.

Forget the rocket test. Tell us about the alien mothership.

If you were so smart you'd know it's CDT.

They can't figure out how to build an electric rocket yet?
WHAT ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT?!?
