I almost said Rutherford engine because I saw some interview with the CEO of rocket lab on YouTube but then I realized I have no idea who Rutherford is and an engine isn’t a person and I don’t remember what the CEOs name is.

Instead of a turbo pump they use a lithium ion battery hooked up to an electric motor, which apparently the math for that doesn’t work because it doesn’t have a high enough energy density but the way they solved it is when the battery gets used up it just falls out and then that works.

Rutherford solved the riddle of how the atom was structured. Firing alpha particles through gold.
