is there a central flight computer that receives input from all the sensors and commands the engine mechanisms for ignition/throttle/gimbaling/etc? or is there a specific engine control computer and the engine I/O goes to the engine computer and then the engine computer talks to some other computer? how do the sensors and computers talk to each other on the rocket? do the sensors send packets of data or is it like voltages and poo poo? how big a MIRV bus could you throw with one of them there BE-4s?

Bloody posted:here's half an hour of SSME failures to get some idea of what those can look like. the worst ones are where it goes from "that looks like an engine" to "that is solid white" in one frame. Bloody probably already knows this but before Challenger was destroyed, all the astronauts were way more terrified of the SSMEs than the SRBs
