SpaceX officially Revealed New S37 Engine Solutions...Starship Flight 10 Ready NOW!
Starship was built with one bold goal: to take humans to the Moon and Mars in this decade.
But it seems impossible!
The reality shows us that it has not yet achieved anything. Starting with the first flight prototype of Starship version 2, unexpected incidents have led to mid-air explosions. However, everything is about to change.
Meet Ship 37, preparing for its upcoming flight 10, will serve as a testament to the lessons learned from all their failures, especially on Raptor.
So, what SpaceX engineer changed on S37?
Let’s find out on today episode of Alpha Tech:

Starship' SpaceX switched to its version 2 configuration from Flight 7, but the results still remained unsatisfactory. The ships inadvertently exposed dangerous weaknesses in SpaceX’s vaunted Raptor propulsion system.
On Flight 7, the cause of the Starship loss was reported as “harmonic response several times stronger in flight than had been seen during testing, which led to increased stress on hardware in the propulsion system.” That increased pressure caused a propellant leak that couldn’t fully escape from the attic, causing a fire that shut down the engine.

Flight 8 also shocked us with leaked images of the Raptor engines breaking apart a few days later. They were violently torn apart, seemingly exploding before separating from the ship. Large and small pieces of debris were floating around the stern. These leaked images are the only evidence to date that gives us a full view of the moment an engine failed and left the ship. This sudden movement caused an imbalance in the spacecraft's thrust, which ultimately led to a loss of control and an explosion. This was unfortunate. SpaceX also confirmed that the loss was due to a hardware failure in one of the Raptor engines at mid-sea level, which caused an undesirable mix of fuel and oxidizer.
