[edit] RS-83: The Next Generation
Imagine NASA could do with five of these powerful puppies on the Ares V instead of the RS-68 engines that want to use. It could easily, with the two five-segment Solid Rocket Boosters, easily produce over 8 million lbs. of thrust at liftoff, allowing NASA to carry more cargo to the Moon. The only drawback is that they cannot be reused, as these engines were designed for. Rwboa22 18:20, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
- RS-68 thrust is virtually equal to would-be RS-83. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 88.102.92.202 (talk) 22:44, 27 March 2007 (UTC).
