The BE-7 is a slick engine. Perfect enginefu material.

Also, does anyone know what happened to the BE's 5 and 6?

Here's a picture of a cool engine. Shame Blue Origin is secretive about this stuff so we can't rocket-gasm over it.

What do you guys think about the BE-7? It seems like a promising engine to me. The cycle is novel, but I'm not sure why it was chosen over others.

It seems like with the interest in lunar bases in permanently shadowed regions for water mining that hydrolox will be the main propellant of future space flight (at least for around the moon). I'd figured that other propellants would've been chosen considering the issues of storing liquid hydrogen for long periods of time in space. Maybe operations around the moon are short enough to where that isn't a problem?
