NASA conducted a successful fire test RS-25 engine for heavy-duty construction of the SLS rocket, designed to fly to Mars. This was reported in the Twitter space Agency.
The test was in Mississippi at the site of the space center John Stennis. The test lasted 7.5 minutes.
This test is part of the development of the controller, the so-called “brain” of the engine.
