NASA Spacex CRS-22 And CRS - 24 Resupply Missions To The ISS (International Space Station)
CRS 22 with all engines running has almost cleared the tower. The Rocket is powered by Merlin engines, a family of rocket engines developed by SpaceX for use on its Falcon 1, Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy launch vehicles. Merlin engines use a rocket grade kerosene (RP-1) and liquid oxygen as rocket propellants in a gas-generator power cycle. The Merlin engine was originally designed for recovery and reuse. At Launch the engine generates 845kN of thrust. (Photo by George Wilson/NurPhoto)
