Terran 1 Burns Methalox
Relativity's Terran 1 rocket, seen here, is mostly 3D-printed. It burns liquid methane and liquid oxygen, known as methalox. This close-up shows icy chunks falling as intense blue exhaust streams from its nine Aeon 1 engines. The launch, from Cape Canaveral, was a test flight that achieved main engine cutoff and stage separation.
