The secrecy makes Bezos sound too much like Jim Jones to me. *If it's
for commercial use, they need (NEED) to be much more open.

I live less than ten miles from them and they seldom make the news,
let alone substantial details. *What little has come out recently
seems to suggest they've made additional flights, but probably
not with the vehicle that'll have a serious propulsion system
(something more than peroxide alone for propellent). *Not a clue on
their propulsion systems development status that I've heard of.

Frustrating...

h2o2+synfuel is by far the best fly-by-rocket via liquid fuel
density. Nothing else comes close to accomplishing the most payload
to LEO per liquid kg.

Because h2o2+synfuel is so powerful is also why it's compact and
otherwise extremely touchy stuff, although relatively safe in the
chilled format.
