@HORIZONSPACEUK We should come up with a standardized definition of engines vs. thrusters. That would benefit the community

@SamTheFox onboard thrusters. the gas goes through a tube intead of a modern rocket engine. there are four gas tubes connected to fuel tanks. this is a different design to usual thrusters :)
