And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

I wouldn't want to be walking by underneath when that went off.
NASA engineers at Stennis Space Center tested RS-25 engine No. 2059 on the A-1 Test Stand this week. This was the first flight engine for NASA’s new rocket, the Space Launch System (SLS), to be tested at Stennis. RS-25 engine No. 2059 arrived at the A-1 Test Stand at Stennis Space Center on Nov. 4, 2015.
what I've been able to find out is that one of those RD-25 engines burns 375 gallons of fuel per second. With four of them on the SLS they will empty a swimming pool in 60 seconds. And I thought my old Scout was thirsty!
ReplyDeleteCertainly beats the fuel consumption of the Dodge.
