Re: Is it just me...
"SpaceX is using Kerosene and Oxygen, none of which can be called green."
Starship is Methane/Lox.
Masten Space Systems rockets Xombie, Xoie and Brutus were Lox/IPA.
Lox/H2 is sort of green, but separating the H2 isn't and generating the Lox takes energy that won't be 100% "green"
I don't see any rocket having green cred anytime soon. The energy density required doesn't lend itself to that sort of thing.
Point to point rocket travel isn't viable. The idea has been around for over a century and airplanes are faster and more reliable. It may take more air time in a plane, but ground time for a rocket can be many times longer. Need to move people and supplies, a C-5 or C-17 is cheaper, safer, more versatile and faster.
