			As far as ‘key features’, examples include highly radioactive, needs shadow shield for NTRs, only works at large scales for nuclear pulsed propulsion, and needs active cooling for electric drives.
			The idea behind this is it allows someone to quickly identify what type of drive they might want for general performance and allow them to cherry pick reasonable numbers without going through the weeds.
			Extra details such as mass-flow and such, possibly in a full-on table ala Atomic Rockets, would be included under specific engines.

			We may also want a table at the top of the page comparing expected properties for various engine classes, something like this:

			= New Entries: =
			This section is for planned entry additions to the engine lists (or revamps of them)
			Suspended nitrogen colloid
			Non-nuclear Pulse Propulsion
			QSR
			Nitrogen Allotrope Pellets
			Mirror Bottle Pellets
			Some of the more ‘unusual’ examples from “Ignition” such as Li-H-F rocket
			Turborockets (chemical and nuclear)
			Ramrockets
			Having some subdivisions/variety in solid rockets might be worthwhile.
			Hybrid solid-liquid rocket engines
			Liquid Rocket Engines:
			Monopropellants
			Mercury and other heavy fuels
			Chlorine trifluoride and other scary oxidizers
			Detonation engines (both RDE and PDE), since they’ve been a hot topic recently
			Cold gas thrusters
