Re: XCOR engines



Just ask them.

They are a commercial company, and you are a potential customer. So I
am sure they will be more willing to provide you personally with specs
such as ISP and T/W than to reply on the news group. Maybe they will
fax you a NDA or something.

I really hope that the current boom in suborbital space flight will
lead to more specialization. Why does every single rocket technology
startup have to build their own engines? In the case of armadillo
aerospace I can see why they do it: it is a lot of fun.

But in other cases I think it does not make any sense. Unfortunately
"not invented here" is not only an issue at NASA centers.
