This is an actual flown Space Shuttle Main Engine (SSME) that helped power the orbiter into space on seven
different missions. The SSME was the first large liquid fueled rocket engine designed to be reused, and able to be throttled to different power levels. These requirements made this engine the most sophisticated and complex rocket engine ever developed. (Actual FLOWN Artifact)
