NASA and L3Harris have successfully test-fired the first RS-25 rocket engine, to help power the fifth launch of the SLS rocket for the Artemis Moon exploration campaign.

The four RS-25 engines powered the core stage that paired with two solid rocket boosters from Northrop Grumman, combined to create 8.8 million pounds of thrust on liftoff.

A liquid rocket motor works by pumping fuel and oxidant into a combustion chamber, where they mix and burn to create hot exhaust gases that expand out the nozzle, propelling the rocket forward.

Space startup Rocket Lab performed the first hot fire test on a new rocket engine called Archimedes, nine of them will power next year's Neutron rocket.

China has tested a liquid oxygen-kerosene engine that "has the largest thrust in the country" at over 500 tonnes, according to China Central Television (CCTV). The engine was developed by the ...
