    Raptor is a family of methane/liquid oxygen rocket engines under development by SpaceX since the late 2000s, [2] although LH2/LOX propellant mix was originally under study when the Raptor concept development work began in 2009. [15] When first mentioned by SpaceX in 2009, the term "Raptor" was applied exclusively to an upper stage engine ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prochirality

    [2] If two identical substituents are attached to an sp 3-hybridized atom, the descriptors pro-R and pro-S are used to distinguish between the two. Promoting the pro-R substituent to higher priority than the other identical substituent results in an R chirality center at the original sp 3-hybridized atom, and analogously for the pro-S substituent.
