The RS-25 engine consists of pumps, valves, and other components working in concert to produce thrust. Fuel (liquid hydrogen) and oxidizer (liquid oxygen) from the Space Shuttle's external tank entered the orbiter at the umbilical disconnect valves and from there flowed through the orbiter's main propulsion system (MPS) feed lines; whereas in the Space Launch System (SLS), fuel and oxidizer ...

The AJ10-190 engines could be reused for up to 100 missions. Diagram of an RS-25 (or Space Shuttle Main Engine), that used a twin shaft staged combustion cycle. There were three of these on the back of the orbiter. Comparing the diagram of the RS-25 to that of the Orbital Manoeuvring System (OMS), it is clear that the RS-25 engine is far more ...
An example of a specific impulse measured in time is 453 seconds, which is equivalent to an effective exhaust velocity of 4.440 km/s (14,570 ft/s), for the RS-25 engines when operating in a vacuum. [36]
The ascent propulsion system (APS) or lunar module ascent engine (LMAE) is a fixed-thrust hypergolic rocket engine developed by Bell Aerosystems for use in the Apollo Lunar Module ascent stage. It used Aerozine 50 fuel, and N 2 O 4 oxidizer. Rocketdyne provided the injector system, at the request of NASA, when Bell could not solve combustion ...
