Thank you very much!

apologies,@@davidste60 I meant more of a full video, as there is very little information available that we can find on it. Honestly a SSTO engine deserves some attention IMHO.

@@dreamersbasics7713 They've been working on that engine for a long time and a case can be made that it's vaporware. I hope it isn't.

Ok boomer.

I was born in 53 and grew up within a few miles of Paine Field AFB. I remember hearing sonic booms more often when they got the F106's. The booms didn't bother me either.

Spin the compressor with a motor. I'm not sure a turbine would be needed necessarily.

@@davidste60 Yeah thanks I mean compressor. The intake.

Both the USA and USSR have flown nuclear powered aircraft

​@@ECL..The test beds weren't powered by the reactor.

Lockheed Martin is working to remedy the problem with power.

Potentially, but it can’t make use of the pre-existing infrastructure of airports. It’s co2 emissions would probably be substantially higher too if you care about that

@@stocky9218 I don't see how using airports is relevant to rockets, and the CO2 argument lacks foundation and relevance. I'm looking forward to supersonic commercial travel becoming available again.

@@scorpio6587 Sorry man, I just meant where would it land, how would passengers exit the ship and how would the passengers get to their destination from the landing sight which can't be near populated areas. Infrastructure is important and if you can't use pre existing infrastructure like airports then its going to be very difficult. As for emissions of course it has relevance, I don't know if you live under a rock but the aviation industry is very caught up in reducing emissions especially for passenger flights. I love starship and it would be cool to see passenger flights but supersonic/hypersonic planes are a much better option for many reasons especially because they can and will use pre existing infrastructure.

@@stocky9218 nonsense

@@scorpio6587 bruh

Interesting answer but they works not about I know
