We’re putting our new vertical stage 1 engine test stand through its paces out in Moses Lake... pushing liquid nitrogen through, testing the systems, and getting ready to light it up. 🔥

Any chance for Independent photographers to get a shot of your tests? I spent a lot of time taking pictures of SpaceX 🤔📷👃

Might be a good time to give Everyday Astronaut Tim Dodd another tour and update! I’m sure many like me would love to see that!

Can you do that at night and add rave lighting and edm music?

Always happy to see progress. Is that deflector ramp water cooled? Or even N2 cooled? Has anybody skateboarded there yet? 😉😊

Oh, oh, I hope the flame deflector isn't finished yet. Otherwise the hollow spaces and side crevices could cause the shockwaves to bend the whole structure or even catapult it out. I think your first stage has a lot of thrust! I'm curious to see the first Stoke Space test!😍

Canada's first orbital-class rocket engine is now being manufactured! Our patent pending Hadfield-150 engine is the largest and most powerful rocket engine ever built in Canada, and the first known Canadian orbital-class engine to make it to this stage. The Hadfield-150 builds on everything we learned after years of painstakingly designing, manufacturing, and testing the Hadfield-10 series, our first regeneratively cooled and additively manufactured liquid rocket engine. Every engine test, both successful and unsuccessful on our Darkhorse test stand at Area 66, retired risk that's now carried straight into Hadfield-150 and sovereign orbital launch for Canada. A few details about the Hadfield-150 engine series: ✅ Designed to power Tundra and Tundra+, our light and medium-lift launch vehicles, and built to scale to Tempest, our larger reusable medium lift vehicle ✅ Manufactured entirely in-house, from design to print to test, for true sovereign launch capability ✅ Produced at Rocket Factory 1, on our expanding fleet of metal additive manufacturing systems at the AMA Lab, including the largest known metal 3D printer in Canada ✅ Designed for reusability and medium-lift scale from the outset, and built to significantly cut the time, infrastructure, manufacturing and cost iterative engine testing usually requires, with room to scale to even larger engines by leveraging the same design ✅ Capable of engine-out functionality, so losing one on an early flight doesn't have to mean losing the mission ✅ Optimized for Canada's Launch the North initiative, to deliver sovereign operational capability in a time and cost efficient manner Initial testing starts later this year at our new Blackhawk orbital engine test cell at Area 66, our private test range in Ontario. Stacked, integrated vehicle testing comes later at the Atlantic Spaceport Complex, our spaceport in Newfoundland and Labrador. Stay tuned for some exciting and fiery milestones ahead! 🚀🇨🇦 National Defence Defence Research and Development Canada Canadian Space Agency Transport Canada NGen Canada
