The Aerojet Rocketdyne RL10 has been in service since 1962. It’s served as a upper stage engine for a number of traditional unmanned boosters and was part of the Apollo, Shuttle and SLS programs. It’s done just about everything.

When I was growing up we lived up the valley from the testing facility north of Redmond, WA - we’d hear the test burns. They don’t do any testing there anymore that I am aware of.
