RE: We are relying on ancient rocket engine designs to shoot us into space! Is the Aerospike engine an alternative?
I'm with you on that one. I'm really curious about the linear design, too. that just doesn't look like something that would work in flight. I can see on jet airplanes, though. They have that cone design, though it's not exactly like the aerospike.
Here you go! From scale tests in the 60's. Check the volume first! It's a rocket engine afterall :)
Great, thanks. I don't think anyone got to sleep that day.
