Aspace rocketis a vehicle with a very powerful jet engine designed to carry people or equipment beyond Earth and out intospace. If we definespaceas the region outside Earth's atmosphere, that means there's not enough oxygen to fuel the kind of conventional engine you'd find on a jet plane.
Horsepower
37 million The three space shuttle main engines generate the maximum equivalent of about 37 million horsepower. The fuel pump alone delivers as much as 71,000 horsepower, the oxygen pump delivers about 23,000.
Cost
But what really sets SpaceX apart, and has made it a magnet for controversy, are its prices: As advertised on the company's Web site, a Falcon 9 launch costs an average of $57 million, which works out to less than $2,500 per pound to orbit.
