The inner vessel will be constructed from inconel (corrosion resistant) and the outer vessels from aluminium (lower density). A cylindrical geometry (4.8 m length, 4.7 m diameter) has been retained for the hydrogen vessel and a nested spherical vessel (4.7 m diameter) for the oxygen (type Ariane-5 ECP).

Boiling of cryogens occurs when temperature exceeds locally the saturation temperature at a<br />
certain pressure. Tanks are initially pressurised at 2 bars before launch, which gives the liquid<br />
