Blue Origin Goddard demo flight

Recommended Posts

One of the firms pursuing low-cost space flight has posted video of a demo launch on their website.

Their propellant combo of choice for actual flight is rumored (they're pretty secretive) to be Hydrogen Peroxide/Kerosene (RP-1), but the demo video shows no flame from the nozzles. It would seem that H2O2/RP-1 would generate a visible flame.

I'm wondering if the demo was actually done with a H2O2/Catalyst motor, and not the bi-propellant.

Any opinions?
