What it does

The showpiece exploded view: a rocket engine hanging in a test stand that comes apart into 11 named assemblies on staggered springs when you hover it, with pipes and harness that an audit proves never pass through anything, and a WebGL exhaust plume, shock and steam when you press Ignite. As built: a 1.6 MB page with 3,120 SVG paths and two canvases, plus three A4 PDFs (0.6 to 4.4 MB). The build takes a few minutes. It names a real engine (SpaceX's Raptor 2) in its title and caption. Its motion runs on the browser's clock with the step capped at 1/30 s.

Get it
