It travels for a while in the industrial yard of the Heylandt factory until the flame dies. (Note: At the beginning of 1930, rocket engineer Max Valier was given the opportunity to develop a liquid rocket engine at Heylandt in Britz. He was assisted by the Heylandt development engineers Alfons Pietsch, Walter Riedel and Arthur Rudolph, who built the rocket motor in a test vehicle called "hellhound" after Valier's accidental death in May, 1930.)
