    hydrogen which is simple to store

    Hydrogen is famously not simple to store. This is part of the reason that SpaceX rockets use kerosene instead of hydrogen despite the better performance.

    • Be careful that other rockets run on liquid hydrogen, which should be kept extremely cold. That is the main problem for them. That being said, hydrogen is indeed not easy to store and transport.

        True. Liquid hydrogen takes something that’s already difficult to work with and adds even more complexity to the system.
