After numerous tests using millions of pounds of force, engineers have successfully completed structural qualification testing on the engine section for NASA's new deep-space rocket, the Space Launch System. 
A true powerhouse, with four RS-25 engines and side attachment points for two solid rocket boosters, the engine section is located at the bottom of the rocket's massive core stage. The 212-foot-tall core stage will be the backbone of all SLS configurations, making the tests critically important for upcoming missions sending crews to the Moon, Mars and beyond.
