Geek Alert: Rocket Engine Inflation

Hi All,

As a space geek, I have been following the "growth " of SpaceX rockets. Following the single engine Falcon 1, there have been-

The Falcon 9 with 9 Merlin engines

Then the Falcon Heavy, basically three Falcon 9s-27 engines.

And now the Starship Super Heavy Booster planned for its maiden launch early next year. 29 of the more powerful Raptor engines

with plans for 32 total in the future. More powerful than the Apollo Saturn 5!

Stay tuned.
