This company is quite interesting. They have this clever concept of a fully reusable second stage where the heat shield doubles as an aerospike engine!

Now they have tested their first FFSC engine. To even complete a test with this complex engine design is really cool, only a few have ever made it this far. I see someone has already updated wikipedia:
"As of 2024, only four full-flow staged combustion rocket engines had ever progressed sufficiently to be tested on test stands; the Soviet Energomash RD-270 project in the 1960s, the US government-funded Aerojet Rocketdyne Integrated powerhead demonstration project in the mid-2000s,[7] SpaceX's flight capable Raptor engine first test-fired in February 2019,[8] and Stoke Space’s engine developed for its Nova vehicle in 2024.[9]"

works with no issues in normal version of Firefox. I'm guessing you either did not do CTRL+F5 or are using some adblock plugin.

Use Firefox and it blocks all sorts of unwanted stuff of course.

Could it be they lack those things because you know they are AI generated? smiley

They all look... off. Incongruous, lacking personality and identity... Know what I mean?
