For any other engine junkies recently added this TR-201 to the collection. Its a bi-propellant which utilizes surplus Lunar Module Descent Engine (LMDE) thrust chambers and was integrated into the Delta Rocket 2000 series second stage application. The basic LM chamber uses a modified pintle injector, injector dome, throttle and alternate gimbal arrangement for Delta.

The thrust chamber in the foreground of the 4th image is in excess of my needs and available for sale (it's a proto-type).

Once again you find pieces that only you can find. Great piece.

My question is when will the museum open? Perhaps we can all combine our collections and open a museum together? It may not compete with some of the big boys but we could give them a run for the money.

Thanks for the look.

I received critical assistance from another cS "member" who deserves the credit for this find (as well as several other items in the collection).

This is absolutely terrific. As you know, I love this stuff. Thanks for creating images for all to see. I have an idea for how to make a stand to display it. I'll connect offline.
