Default Woo! Another RSRM static test today

The world shook for 120 seconds today. Quite impressive, once again.

I mean if you're going to pull the Freedom-of-speech card, don't be a hack, come up with something interesting. Fashion Old Glory into a wisecracking puppet and blister the system with a scathing ventriloquism act, or better yet, drape the flag over your head and desecrate it with a large caliber bullet hole."

This was called a "Production Rate Motor Test", according
to the NASA press release.

Somehow, X-Rays were made of the motor nozzle during
the burn!

Real Time Radiography or RTR. This can let you "see" the interaction
of the flame front with the case insulation/nozzle.
