I’ve been following EDA several years. Tim is so knowledgeable. Most importantly he has integrity.

Jordi's comments are so important, and I feel like they could be easily missed. Building rocket engines is truly an art form just like he mentioned. Every armchair quarterback who says "why don't we just make more Saturn V rockets / F1 engines?" or the doubters who can't understand what is so hard about replicating something that we've done before should be pointed to this video. The bottom line is that the artists who made that happen are gone. As much as we're more advanced today, every engine is in a way starting over with a new group of artists learning to perfect their latest work.

Yeah, they re purposed a bunch of stuff too for saturn that was originally designed for something else. The Engines were designed for a intercontinental missile when they thought nuclear payloads would need to be much larger mass wise then turned out to be true. They later re purposed it for Saturn.

I need a video that lists all the companies involved in space transport, their history and their vehicles. So many small companies that I know nothing about. What a great time for space transport !

Many, probably most currently flying engines start with the same process of casting a copper alloy blank, turning it and milling the cooling channels. But then there are differences in how exactly the channels get enclosed. Firefly started with electrolytic deposition of an outer jacket, same as used for Space Shuttle engines. But in the previous interview Tom said they wanted to switch to brazing a pre-made steel jacket -- it is a tricky process, but it is also much faster.

@@highpointsights Yes. In the interview he went into a surprising amount of details regarding their fabrication process -- how they EDM the small holes for the throat cooling at the bottom of the grooves, and then fill the grooves with wax, and deposit to outer shell. I think they even have pictures somewhere on the site with the part half way done. Usually you do not see that many details about contemporary engines. I would say they show more than anybody else at this time, if you do not count "amateurs" like Copenhagen Suborbitals.

Firefly is such a cool company, wow. Their senior engineers seem so deep in the woods. It’s really cool to see how excited and passionate they are about their baby.

It’s so cool that you’ve managed to get access like this to so many places, keep it up Tim! We love it!

That Jordi guy really knows his stuff. Great interview there, love the attitude when it came to solving the connector issue from flight 1, and the different approach as a "flight" vehicle as opposed to a prototype.

So awesome you got to do this! The hard work you've put in for so many years to get where you are now, you definitely deserve it!. Also great video with good questions and information

Now that's what i call a weekend present! Thank you Tim

I love the way Jordi explains things

Tim, You're an inspiration. Your passion for rockets and space flight drove you to where you are today which is phen-normenal 😊 You show how anyone who follows their heart, their passion, "works" hard at what they love, can be a success. Thank you🙏

Really exciting stuff coming up in the near future, look forward to it, well done Firefly. A great time to be interested in space, space exploration and technology, what a renaissance!

Keep up the good work Tim. Always enjoy watching all your videos

That was amazing!! Thanks Tim, and Meagan, Shea & Jordi! Jordi's interview was so interesting - it's like Elon has said, the biggest project is developing the manufacturing system.

Self taught Tim asking the right questions. He makes people comfortable and they just open up to him. Great Interviews.

What an amazing interview!!! Wow the access and information is amazing!! Great job Tim !!!
