How SpaceX Reinvented The Rocket Engine!

Last Video: NASA Reveals NEW Lunar Starship!

Mars Colonization News and Updates

The Space Race is dedicated to the exploration of outer space and humans' mission to explore the universe. We’ll provide news and updates from everything in space, including the SpaceX and NASA mission to colonize Mars and the Moon. We’ll focus on news and updates from SpaceX, NASA, Starlink, Blue Origin, The James Webb Space Telescope and more. If you’re interested in space exploration, Mars colonization, and everything to do with space travel and the space race... you’ve come to the right channel! We love space and hope to inspire others to learn more!

I'm an engineer on Starlink and I always get lost when talking to my colleagues who work on Falcon and Starship. This really helped out!

What people don't appreciate about Engineering at this level is the insane amount of tools, modelling, Simulation, mathematics, physics, and software engineering(not the cute app stuff, real software engineering) involved. Engineering and Physics can be borderline Magic at the highest levels, where the practitioners are blown away and marvel at their own creations.

6:53 Correction, SpaceX were certainly not the first to use methalox as a propelant (they are the first at the scale of Starship). At the very least, NASA's Project Morpheus is a precursor for both propulsive landing and for use of methalox. RS-16 and RD-0169 are also methalox engines that predate SpaceX's Raptor. The Full Flow engine however is indeed a world first by SpaceX AFAIK.

In the past, I had the privilege of working for a leading turbomachinery consulting firm located near Boston. As an aerodynamicist specializing in turbomachinery, I take great pride in my contributions to early aero-thermo performance maps, required in the cycle analysis of this and other innovative rocket engines under study at that time.

The period was marked by significant advancements in turbomachinery technology, including Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), structural analysis, and systems analysis. This confluence of this technology spurred these ambitious projects.

As I reflect on those times, I extend my best wishes to all the companies rising to conquer the challenge. May they continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible.

Now, SpaceX has reinvented the spacesuit.

Correction: the most powerful rocket engine is the Soviet-built RD-170(has 4 chambers). The F1 is only the most powerful single-chambered engine.

SpaceX did not reinvent the rocket engine-they have made big improvements to existing rocket engine technology and deserve the credit given to them.

This is a most excellent video! It is simple and visual and has enough detail that an engineer such as myself who appreciates science but does not know that much about rocket technology can appreciate what is going on at SpaceX!

Great explanation
Simple, so not burdened with alot of terminology and hitting all the main introductory points
Thanks

[SLane]

I was always confused about open/closed cycles and full flow. Your explanation has helped me understand. Thank you.

[adam_belounis.]

Can't be more exited, what a wonderful time to be alive ❤

[johnstewart]

Thank you for this educational video. Keep up the good work

[edwardturner]

This was so beautifully explained. It felt good to be able to follow along and understand most of it. Well done. Kudos to the entire production team. I am subscribed and will visit DISPLATE. Magnetic wall mounts... pure genius.

[Intellistan]

Outstanding production. Absolutely awesome

[gamereditorner]

Thank you for the information and keep it up!

[tyu]

Wow, we’ve come a long way from the humble beginnings of the black powder rockets of the ancient Chinese. Great video. Just enough technical information to tell the story without becoming “bogged down” in technical data. Keep up the good work!

Good shirt excellent video with plenty of detail. Best one I have seen on the raptor engine.

[bournejsn]

So relieved when you started from the Merlin engine and not the beginning of Rocketry LOL phew!
