SpaceX Starship Raptor Engine Is Hard To Build!

In May 2021, Starship prototype SN15 touched down on the ground, completing SpaceX’s first successful test flight. Years of work led up to this point - and it seemed that the goal of getting to Mars was now a little bit closer. But for the engineers working on Starship, this was just a small step in a very long journey.

In order to fully test Starship, they are now looking to complete an orbital test flight. This will be a test flight like no other, as a fully stacked Starship will produce almost double the thrust of the Saturn 5, the most powerful rocket ever made. In order to produce this amount of thrust, the Super Heavy booster will have around 30 raptor engines, lifting Starship’s second stage into orbit.

In order for this test flight to go well, an enormous amount of engine testing needs to be done. Typically, each engine is tested individually at SpaceX’s facility in McGregor Texas before being transported to Boca Chica. From there, the engines are attached to Starship prototypes where they go through a series of static fires or even flights. But in order to complete the orbital flight, they will need to rely on an engine that has yet to be flown, the raptor vacuum engine.
