as oxidizer. It was developed in the early 1970s by TRW as a derivative of the lunar module descent engine (LMDE). This engine used a pintle injector first invented by Gerard W. Elverum Jr. and developed by TRW in the late 1950s and received US Patent in 1972. This injector technology and design is also used on SpaceX Merlin engines.
