Genius! The SpaceX Raptor Engines...

Since the founding of SpaceX in 2002, the company has developed four families of rocket engines — Merlin, Kestrel, Draco, and SuperDraco. These engines have propelled SpaceX to unparalleled success in the rocket space industry, cementing the company's reputation as a trailblazer.
But those things are not enough to get to Mars, so since 2016, the SpaceX teams have given all the best to the Raptor, making it become the most genius engine in the world now!
And this is The SpaceX Raptor Engines EVOLUTION!
Firstly, you may already know that the Falcon rocket is named after the Millennium Falcon from Star Wars, but do you know how exactly the SpaceX engines got their names?
Fortunately, Mueller graciously shared the story of SpaceX's engine naming process on Quora. According to his account, when SpaceX initially began, their booster engine was simply referred to as the 60 K engine. However, Elon Musk later encouraged Mueller to come up with a name that didn't consist of numbers and letters, similar to other engines like RD-180 or RS-68. A member of the team working on the turbopump from Barber Nichols, who happened to be a Falconer, suggested naming the engine after a Falcon.
Mueller found this suggestion appealing and inquired about Falcon names. Although he couldn't recall all the names mentioned, he remembered that the small engine was called the Kestrel, the medium-sized engine was named the Merlin, and the large engines were designated the Peregrine and Gyrfalcon. Delighted with these options, Mueller decided to name the small second stage engine Kestrel and the medium-sized engine Merlin. He intentionally reserved the name Peregrine for future use, anticipating the development of larger engines. Elon Musk approved of the naming choices, and they became permanent.
