Layout of the 31 BFR raptor engines
« on: 03/20/2018 10:23 pm »
Do we know what the latest version BFR engine layout will be? If so what is it? I assume 1 central engine with 6 around that but what then?
My optimistic hope is that it will become cool to really think about things... rather than just doing reactive bullsh*t based on no knowledge (Brian Cox)

As of the last IAC it appeared to be 1 + 6 in the center, with two outer rings of twelve staggered engines.
artist, so take opinions expressed above with a well-rendered grain of salt...
