Fascinating aesthetics
LEAP 71 (@leap_71): How it started, how it’s going. Two years ago, we hot-fired the first rocket engine generated without human intervention: a 5 kN kerolox thruster. Since then, we hot-fired a different Noyron generated engine roughly every 6 weeks, including the 20 kN methalox thruster (right).
