How SpaceX manufactures a new raptor engine every 24 hours shock the entire industry...
The Raptor engine is the muscle of the SpaceX Starship program. Thirty-three of these Raptor 2 engines power the Super Heavy booster that serves as the vehicle's first stage, and six more are used by the Starship upper stage. For a successful lunar mission, these engines will need to re-light successfully on the surface of the Moon to carry astronauts back to orbit inside Starship. If the engines fail, the astronauts will probably die.
Luckily, so far, SpaceX has done "very well" in working toward the development of a vehicle to land humans on the surface of the Moon, especially the new Raptor rocket engine.
"SpaceX has moved very quickly on development," Mark Kirasich, NASA's deputy associate administrator who oversees the development of Artemis missions to the Moon, said about Raptor. "We've seen them manufacture what was called Raptor 1.0. They have since upgraded to Raptor 2.0 that first of all increases performance and thrust and secondly reduces the amount of parts, reducing the amount of time to manufacture and test. They build these things very fast. Their goal was seven engines a week, and they hit that about a quarter ago. So they are now building seven engines a week."
But that's still not enough Elon Musk has even set his expectation that SpaceX has to make a capacity of 2000 raptors per year.
