The team steps back as Oberth pours alcohol into one side of the motor. The team steps back quickly and climbs stairs up a hill overlooking the test stand, where several other people await them. At the control site, they close the ignition circuit to the motor. Fumes flow down and flames flare up, but the rocket sustains a controlled burn fairly well, in spite of occasional flareups, and creates sustained thrust measured by the apparatus surrounding the test stand.
