That's interesting -- that fuel/oxidizer combo is what a late virtual friend identified as the best liquid fuel option for hobby rocketeers.

Hydrogen peroxide to oxidize a liquid hydrocarbon isn’t new; it goes back near the beginning of liquid fuel rocketry. The Me163 Komet used a variant of this method.

Concentrated H2O2 is nasty stuff, but a lot less nasty than hydrazine or nitrogen tetroxide.

Good to see research and practical development along this line continuing.
