Space Shuttle Era: Main Engines

Producing 500,000 pounds of thrust from a package weighing only 7,500 pounds, the Space Shuttle Main Engines are one of the shining accomplishments of the shuttle program. The success did not come easily, though.

I used to live about 15 minutes away from Stennis, and on some clear nights you could hear the engines test firing from our house.
I miss it so much.
