View of the steam generator's hydrogen peroxide variable control valve.

Picture 2 of 2.

Hydrogen peroxide from the peroxide tank was admitted to the steam generator through this valve, where the peroxide decomposed in a catalyst bed to produce steam to spin the turbine, which in turn powered the turbopumps.
