@marstronauts @Erdayastronaut @JaneidyEve @13ericralph31 @SPEXcast @bluemoondance74 @Orion_Sword @Some1gee @SpaceX Vacuum nozzle engines are only used in (near) vacuum conditions. Sea level engines need to gimbal rapidly & at high angle for landing. Larger nozzle leaves less room to move & increases moment of inertia.

Mars requires developing complex technology over a decade+, but market cares about next 3 months. Result would be conflicting priorities.

@DJSnM They will, but the hydraulic system is closed loop, so no fluid lost. They do need more power & energy, but rocket has plenty of that.

@leechy3 @kausthav_ray @SpaceX SX 300 & soon SX 500. Kind of a modern version of Inconel superalloys. High strength at temperature, extreme oxidation resistance. Needed for ~800 atmosphere, hot, oxygen-rich turbopump on Raptor rocket engine.

@SmallPettingZoo @Rob_2628 @Starlink Much easier than Lilith, actually, but the catch is that you only get one attempt for each set of stones and the stones are hard to get. Lilith has almost no penalty for as many attempts as you want.
