Think Derek and Jon were remembering this discussion: <https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sci.space.tech/MgiA0x5NjxQ/RA93fr7VmTEJ>It was about Ozone-15, but looks like you and John Schilling have managed to make it even more scary since then.

Ozone-14, O14 has half life 70 s (versus 122 for O15) and is slightly lighter. O14 decays via the Beta-plus mechanism to N14, giving NO2 which is known hypergolic with Ozone. This was a coproduct of my and John Schilling's imaginations...
