LOX Liquid oxygen (LOX) is stored on board a shuttle or rocket in cryogenic form, meaning it is kept at extremely low temperatures. LOX is typically stored in specially designed tanks or containers that are insulated to prevent heat transfer and maintain the low temperature required to keep the oxygen in its liquid state.   The LOX storage tanks are typically constructed using materials that can withstand extreme cold and are resistant to corrosion, such as stainless steel. The tanks are also designed to withstand the pressure exerted by the liquid oxygen.   To maintain the low temperature, the LOX tanks are often surrounded by an insulating material, such as foam or a vacuum jacket, which helps to minimize heat transfer from the environment. This insulation reduces the heat absorbed from the surroundings and helps to preserve the cryogenic state of the liquid oxygen.   It's important to note that when LOX comes into contact with certain materials, such as fl...
