Space shuttle,
as I was just watching the launch I saw something vaguely familiar. I zoomed in, still couldn't quite make it out. So I SUPER-zoomed, and there it was, right down near the bottom of the shuttle's boosters 
; "Triton V-10". I immediately went; "aaahhhhhhhhhh" and it all made sense.

As there are three distinct nozzles sitting in the arc and spark ignition ( yep you guessed it, a spark ignition engine!) I assume the Triton V10 is indeed a 3v series! OH yea! BSEG when that puppy went up. Man I was stoked, choked, and too damned proud to be an American to even give a hoot about that thar fuel bill!
