Super proud of this team. This is a major milestone after ~5 years of hard work, including developing a test stand, finding a test site....oh, and getting through a pandemic.
Yesterday afternoon, BURPG conducted a 1 second hotfire test—the first by the team in several years, and the first ever on the Horizontal Test Stand. Initial data review indicates that all performance targets were met, with 2,500 pounds of thrust.
Big news coming soon! Proud to support this team.

January 2023 Cold Flows: Over the last several weeks, BURPG has conducted a number of additional fuel and ox cold flow tests. The team has reviewed the data, closed out all open items, and intends to step into hot fire attempts in the near future.
This policy change buried during the World Cup Final sets a very dangerous precedent. I fear it may expand in scope with time. @[email protected] support an open internet and reverse this change. People should post their content natively on Twitter because it is better, not by force. https://twitter.com/twittersupport/status/1604531261791522817
