So only 28 engines are needed now because of the higher thrust of the Raptor? @elonmusk

@elonmusk Elon how are you avoiding resonance frequencies on you build?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Sep 1, 2020
Just go through resonant modes fast. It’s when you hang out there that problems arise.

The outer ring of booster engines (20 of 28) have no TVC actuators. Steering control comes from center 8 TVC & differential throttle of outer engines. By any measure, the high thrust variant of Raptor will probably have the high T/W of any engine ever.

If some company has solved a useful thing that we can just buy, that would be great! It’s so much work to create our own tech. We develop new tech, because we have to, not because we want to.

Tesla Germany designed & built the vaccine RNA printers for CureVac, but, subject to some CureVac IP, they could be made for other companies too

Term of the day: Horsepower
Definition: Horsepower (hp) is a unit of measurement of power, or the rate at which work is done, usually in reference to the output of engines or motors.

Did you take astronomy at Penn? It almost killed me...
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Aug 30, 2020
Wow, I super loved astronomy (but took it at Queens, not Penn)! Definitely one of my favorite classes. Senior year quantum mechanics at Penn was the hardest class I ever took. That stuff will mess with your mind.
