The sky on
your birthday.
“Rocket Engine Fireplace” was a movie, or a file NASA no longer keeps, so there's no still picture of it to put on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThis is a close-up view of the RS-25 main engines of NASA's Space Launch System rocket. These engines produce millions of pounds of thrust, burning cryogenic liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen. The powerful exhaust plumes are a controlled release of immense energy, here presented in a way that suggests a cozy fireplace, contrasting the raw power with a sense of warmth.
