I'm curious, given the stated figures (total thrust, rocket dimensions, payload to certain orbits), is it possible to calculate the specific impulse of this new engine (with the atmo nozzles, I suppose)? I couldn't find it on their page, and I'm not quite well-enough versed in rocketry to even know if there's sufficient information to figure it out.
