ATLANTA (FOX 5 Atlanta) - Delta announced the grand opening of the world's largest jet engine test cell.

The cell is capable of safely running a mounted, stationary engine at full power with 150,000 pounds of thrust.

Right now, there isn't even an engine capable of that much power.

But Delta says this is a way to prepare for the future.
