I'll be in my bunk
Seriously? That had to be an intentional name. "Let's name our prototype after a fictional experiment that killed an entire planet of people and turned the survivors into rapey, murderous, cannibals."
Firefly is the class of ship Serenity is if I recall correctly. Donβt remember what the Reaver experiment was called.
Edit: Found it, was a chemical experiment called the Pax that had the opposite of the intended effect.
Miranda was the planet the experiment was on
Ah youβre right
Technically it had too much of the effect on 99% of the population. They just sat down and died because they couldn't be bothered to continue living.
The other 1% had the opposite effect x100, murder cannibals
Someone also thought that Soylent is a good name for an actual product...

Should theoretically be slightly larger thrust than the Merlin 1-D. 7x engines on an Antares or similar.
Can it pull a Crazy Ivan?

Oh that's very cool. Startup looks so rough at 80x slowdown hah!
Very cool with the t tep green starter flame.
TEA-TEB. Although t tep is probably a reasonable facsimile of how it is pronounced in industry...
