#China's Huge #Rocket Engine Test Stand Completed

#China #RocketEngines #TestStand
#China has completed a massive stand for testing huge #rocket engines that could power the country's moon exploration efforts. Located at #Tongchuan in the northwestern province of #Shaanxi, this stand is now Asia's largest for testing liquid-propellant #rocket engines. The facility was constructed in a cut in a hillside, allowing hot rocket exhaust to be safely directed into the remote valley floor below. In this video, we'll explore the features of this stand, and the successful engine hot fire test run on April 24, with footage demonstrating a water deluge system designed to cool the exhaust and reduce the sound pressure levels, and showing hot rocket exhaust blasting the valley floor.

This #rocket engine test stand is an incredible feat of engineering, designed to test #liquid-propellant #rocket #engines that will power #China's #moon exploration efforts. The stand features state-of-the-art technology, including a water deluge system to cool the exhaust and reduce sound pressure levels. The construction of the facility is impressive, with the stand being built into a hillside to safely direct the hot rocket exhaust into the remote valley floor below. This test stand is now the largest in Asia and marks a significant achievement for #China's space exploration program.
