At NASA’s Stennis Space Center, testing is a daily routine. In the E2 test cell, the latest Aeon R gas generator undergoes component throttle sweeps, ranging from minimum to maximum power. These tests verify performance across the entire spectrum of throttle capabilities before integration into the engine assembly. Test, hot fire, repeat—join the team.👇 Propulsion Test Engineer https://bit.ly/3AgrFHJ Senior Electrical Engineer https://bit.ly/3SMVKW2

The Aeon R main combustion chamber experiences temperatures around 6500 °F, about ten times hotter than a typical household oven — enough to melt most metals. Propulsion engineer Aditya Sinha explains our innovative approach to regenerative cooling, made possible through additive manufacturing. Print Aeon R with us: 💫 https://bit.ly/4dak505 💫 https://bit.ly/46xS8g5

Hot fires don’t just happen. Before engine components make it to the test stand, they start as powder in our powder bed fusion department. In the latest "Since You Asked" episode, additive manufacturing engineer Dan Christiansen gives an overview of porosity and part quality in our 3D printing methods.

At NASA’s Stennis Space Center, we’ve been busy. From engine hot fires to building new test stands, we’re rapidly expanding the infrastructure and testing capabilities for Terran R. 🔩 At the R Stand (dual-bay vertical engine test stand), the team kicked off the installation of its second flame diverter, moving one step closer to activating the second bay to support a higher cadence of tests for Aeon R. 🔩 The historic A2 test stand is undergoing selective demolition and preparing for the build and installation of its propellant farms. 🔩 In parallel, Aeon R engine hot fires continue at Bay 1 of the R Stand.

Innovation through iteration, combined with our advanced manufacturing capabilities, unlocks speed and agility. We can go from design to testing in just three months, but it all starts with design. In the latest "Since You Asked," additive manufacturing engineer Dan Christiansen breaks down our Design for Additive Manufacturing (DFAM) philosophy and how it drives engine manufacturing. 🚀 https://bit.ly/TerranR

Boots on the ground: The team behind Aeon R thrust chamber assembly testing. From Long Beach, CA, to Stennis, MS, our engineers follow their hardware from design and printing to assembly and testing. Take a behind-the-scenes look at the design and manufacturing considerations for the TCA, which endures temperatures over 6,500°F—more than half the surface temperature of the sun. ▶️ https://lnkd.in/gF55_wqZ
