SpaceX's super-heavy rocket engine was the Raptor engine. The super-heavy thrusters would be equipped with a large number of Raptor engines. For example, the super-heavy thruster 4 would initially be equipped with 29 Raptor engines and would eventually be expanded to 33. At full thrust, the 29 Raptor engines could produce more than 5,500 tonnes (12.1 million pounds of force) of thrust, making it one of the largest and most powerful rocket boosters ever built or tested. In addition, SpaceX had conducted static ignition experiments on the super-heavy launch vehicle's engines, such as a "full test" of three Raptor engines at the SpaceX base in southern Texas. These engines provided power for SpaceX to build a transportation system consisting of a super heavy launch vehicle and a starship. The system could be used to transport satellites, people, and cargo to low-Earth orbit, the Moon, and Mars. The novel "Hundred Years of Spaceship" is equally exciting.

SpaceX's starship rockets had exploded several times during the test. For example, on May 29,2020, the prototype of the Starship spacecraft, SSN4, exploded while testing its engine in Texas, USA. On February 2,2021 (local time), the prototype of the starship, SSN9, exploded on the ground during the test flight. On April 20,2023, the first test flight of the Starship rocket and spacecraft integrated system exploded shortly after lift-off. The rocket engine malfunctioned and the first-stage thruster did not separate from the spacecraft above. On November 18,2023, SpaceX carried out the second test flight of the Starship rocket. Although the first and second stages of the rocket were successfully separated less than three minutes after the launch, the mission control center lost contact with the Starship spacecraft and was forced to activate the self-destruct system. On March 14,2023, the Starship rocket and spacecraft integrated system carried out the third test flight. The second stage of the Starship lost contact during the atmospheric re-entry phase. However, on June 6, 2024, the starship successfully landed in the Indian Ocean. The novel "Hundred Years of Spaceship" is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!
The super heavy rocket launcher was a type of rocket launcher. For example, the " Jobalong " rocket launcher made in the United Arab Republic weighed 70 tons and was known as the world's only super-heavy rocket launcher with 200 launch tubes. It could be ready to launch within five minutes and could be launched one after another. It had powerful firepower and continuous strike ability, but due to its large size and weight, its maneuverability was too poor. It was difficult to move an inch off the spacious road, and its practicality was not strong. Russia had heavy artillery such as the 2S4 240mm " Tulip " heavy self-propelled mortar. Although it was not explicitly called a super-heavy rocket launcher, it was still considered heavy firepower equipment. The barrel was 5.4 meters long and a shell was more than 130 kilograms. It could fire a variety of shells and had a certain role in urban street warfare. In recent years, North Korea had also demonstrated 600mm and 650mm super-heavy rocket launchers with a range of up to 300 kilometers, enough to cover the entire territory of South Korea. It was also equipped with a simple navigation system and had a certain precision strike capability. The novel " Hundred Years of Spaceship " is equally exciting.

There was a gap between China and SpaceX in terms of rocket recycling technology. In terms of the number of recycling, as of September 2024, SpaceX had successfully recycled more than 300 rockets, and the same rocket stage could be reused up to 21 times. China's recoverable rocket technology was still in the development stage. Although many companies had conducted relevant experiments and achieved results, such as Star Glory and Blue Arrow Aerospace, the overall recycling rate and reuse level were far lower than SpaceX. From the maturity and comprehensiveness of the technology, SpaceX could not only recover the rocket's first-stage boosters at sea and on land, but also explore projects such as the " Starship " that could recover both the first-stage and second-stage boosters. In June 2024, during its fourth test flight, both parts of the rocket successfully landed in the sea. Moreover, SpaceX adopted an innovative recycling method such as the " chopstick " type, which used the robotic arm on the launch tower to accurately recover the rocket. This technology was a global leader. Although China's rocket recycling technology was constantly developing and progressing, such as achieving results in vertical take-off and landing, reuse flight, etc., it was still relatively backward in terms of overall technological maturity and innovation. In terms of commercial application scale, SpaceX's development in rocket recycling and reuse had greatly reduced its rocket launch costs. It had also carried out a large number of commercial launch missions and successfully launched more than 800 satellites, occupying a certain market share and promoting the development of the space business. China's recoverable rocket technology was estimated to be available for commercial use in 2025. Although it was expected to reduce launch costs in the future, it had not yet reached the level of large-scale commercial application. However, China's rocket recycling technology was developing rapidly. Many companies were actively participating in the research and development of recycled rockets and were gradually narrowing the gap with SpaceX.

Here are the steps for a super heavy rocket: 1. First, he drew a bullet-like shape, with a sharp front and a flat back. The space was left blank to outline the outline of the rocket's body. 2. Draw two parallel arcs at the tip of the body, and draw an arc parallel to the bottom at the tail as the dividing line. 3. Draw two straight lines at a certain angle at the tail, then draw a quarter circle with this straight line as the radius, and then draw a quarter circle at the opposite position. This way, the tail of the rocket was drawn. 4. He drew a circle near the tip of the plane and another circle inside the circle to represent the window of the rocket cabin. 5. He drew a leaf-like shape at the tail of the rocket to represent the flame. He drew the outer flame first, then the inner flame. 6. Finally, he painted the rocket. For example, the arrow, tail, window frame, inner flame could be painted red, outer flame yellow, window blue, and so on. Of course, the following steps could also be used: 1. Write 11 first, then write three 1s, then draw a triangle, and repeat this action. 2. Draw two triangulas and write 11. 3. Draw two equal signs and then draw two triangulations. 4. Write two ones, then draw two squares and a echelon. 5. He drew a flame and wrote the words " China Aerospace " in the middle. Finally, he painted it in color and drew stars around it.

The outline might focus on the sleek shape and distinct components of the rocket. Maybe it highlights the engines, fins, and payload section in a simple yet striking way.
China had many advanced rocket engines. In terms of solid rocket engines, the integrated solid rocket engine with a diameter of 3.5 meters, a charge of 150 tons, and a thrust of 500 tons successfully tested in 2021 reached the world's leading level. In the field of liquid rocket engines, the YF - 100 was a new generation of rocket engines independently developed by the Sixth Research Institute of the Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation. It used liquid oxygen and kerosene as fuel. The maximum thrust on the ground was 122.37 tons, and the maximum thrust in vacuum was 136.68 tons. There was also the YF -100K engine that was successfully tested on the Long March 10 sub-stage power system in June 2024. When three YF -100K engines were ignited at the same time, the ground thrust reached 382 tons. This engine was also applied to the Long March 12 rocket. In addition, the three-stage liquid-hydrogen liquid-oxygen engine of the new generation of manned launch vehicles that would be used for manned moon landings in the future had completed long-range tests in high-altitude simulated environments, verifying the feasibility of long-term operation in space. This also represented China's advanced achievements in liquid-hydrogen liquid-oxygen engines. The three liquid rocket engines, YF - 1002 engine, YF -102V engine and YF - 209 liquid oxygen methane engine tailored for commercial aerospace, released on April 22,2023 also reflected China's strength in the development of liquid rocket engines.
