SpaceX Sends 51 More Satellites Into Space

The video tutorial covers the journey of a canoeing event leading to the second engine startup, where the M VAC engine ignites to propel the second stage and Starlink satellites into orbit. It discusses the use of carbon-based fuel on Vulcan, which generates transonic speeds. The tutorial also explains the booster landing process, including the first stage engine cutoff and successful stage separation.

What is the primary function of the M VAC engine during the launch?

• To provide fuel for the entire mission

• To assist in the landing of the booster

• To propel the second stage along with the Starlink satellites to orbit

• To propel the first stage of the rocket

What type of fuel is used in the Vulcan 9 rocket?

• Carbon-based

• Nitrogen-based

• Oxygen-based

• Hydrogen-based

What phase is generated when the carbon-based fuel burns?

• Transonic

• Hypersonic

• Supersonic

• Subsonic

During the descent, what is confirmed after the first stage engine cutoff?

• Main engine cutoff

• Successful landing

• Fuel depletion

• Booster separation

What significant event occurs after the main engine cutoff?

• Booster ignition

• Stage separation

• Fuel refill

• Satellite deployment
