Reply to comment by MrJoyless in Rolls-Royce successfully tests hydrogen-powered jet engine by je97
Speaking of the containment issue, I read a comment from an engineer that said, “Hydrogen won’t work out because it is a slippery little bastard that is hard to contain and a general pain in the ass to work with.” Seems to be the general consensus from what I have read. In theory, hydrogen as a fuel solves a lot of problems. In practice, you end up creating a lot more problems than you fix.
