Setting up storage space that complied with their requirements, a site
visit, having employees go through training, and giving a continuous
image of realness. It turns out that FMC is not manufacturing
peroxide, they just have a huge tank of it that is very slowly
decomposing that they fill transport drums with.
Indicative of the level of development in the field, the typewritten
Hydrogen Peroxide Rocket Manual from 1965 by McCormick is still
considered the best reference.
