The 2018 S1 rocket engine is fifty times larger than the previous 2017 series engines. Because the liquid fueled engine is so large, it can hold an extremely large capacity of liquid rocket fuel at any given moment. Putting the equations aside, this means the engine can operate at peak efficiency and deliver action from propulsive fuel over a longer period of time. It's currently estimated the rocket will undergo excursion seven times longer than before.
The extremely large S1 rocket engine will power the new USS PIONEER rocket which has larger dimensions than all previous rockets. The powerful S1 engine is perfect for the FAT configuration Fabulous Allocation Transport which will equal more payload and luxurious furnishings. FAT rocket designs have a much larger perimeter and can hold significantly more payload. However, it takes a powerful engine like the S1 to propel a FAT design.
The USS Pioneer luxurious touring rocket is the first in history. An engine this massive with the ability to hold the largest amount of fuel at any given moment will make clustering and staging obsolete. Clustering and staging engines is a risky business because an engine may fail to fire or be off in the delivered thrust amount, thus requiring compensation with complicated corrections. The S1 engine does away with the need for clustering or staging.
Construction of the S1 is very unique. SPACE1 has designed the S1 to be integrated into the USS Pioneer rocket rather than a separate entity. Then, an astronaut faring is attached as a separate component to ensure a sealed compartment in which fuel cannot leak into. The faring can be fabricated and engineered as large or as small as desired, depending on the space mission and the number of astronauts per any given launch.
