Flashback to July 2022: Elon Musk showing Everyday Astronaut the massive leap from messy Raptor 1 (‘Christmas tree’ vibes 😂) to clean Raptor 2 – 230 tons thrust at 300 bar, tons of parts deleted! Fast-forward to 2026: We’re already on Raptor 3 – 280+ tons thrust, even simpler design, no external pipes, in production (100+ built!), testing like crazy, set for Starship V3 flights soon. Insane progress in ~3.5 years!

ELON: STARSHIP 3 WILL HAVE A CAPACITY OF OVER 200 TONS TO ORBIT “Inevitably, the rocket grows in height. Currently, Flight 3 would be around 40 or 50 tons to orbit, the current design. Starship 2 will be over 100 tons and then Starship 3 will be over 200 tons. It's going from around 7,000 tons thrust to over 8,000. I think we'll end up ultimately with more than 10,000 tons of thrust, probably 7,000 or 8,000 tons of lift-off mass. And at least 10 meters taller, we'll see. It tends to grow.” Source: SpaceX All-Hands, April 2024

🇺🇸 SpaceX just flew an engine so advanced, only 2 other organizations in history ever built one. The Soviet Union tried, the US barely demoed it, but SpaceX actually flew it. Raptor 3 hits 350 bar chamber pressure, a world record, and shaved 10+ tons by eliminating heat shields, fire suppression systems, and basically anything that wasn't absolutely necessary. Pure confidence in engineering. "Raptor 3 is engineering art." Definitely. Source: AstroMind Hub YT, Elon Musk, SpaceX

🇺🇸 33 Raptor 3 engines. All firing at once. 7,590 metric tons of thrust. Elon called it "the most powerful moving object ever made by far" and he's not wrong. SpaceX just completed the first successful full static fire of Super Heavy Booster V3, and the first integrated flight is weeks away. It gets caught mid-air by a tower on the way back down. Mars is in our future. Source: SpaceX, Starlink, Elon Musk

Raptor 3: The Most Advanced Rocket Engine Ever Raptor 3 is SpaceX’s latest evolution — the best rocket engine ever made. Key upgrades: • No external heat shield (full regenerative cooling) • Record thrust-to-weight ratio • Simplified design with fewer parts for faster production & higher reliability Elon Musk: “Raptor 3 engine is a very advanced engine, by far the best rocket engine ever made.” It powers Starship V3/V4 toward 10,000+ tons thrust and rapid reusability — the key to Mars.
