Single Stage To Orbit Rocket Engine

A Rocket Engine that solves the staging problem enabling Single Stage To Orbit flight, thus reducing the likelihood of catastrophic in-flight failure during staging and lowering space travel costs significantly. It does this by tackling the cooling problem with traditional aerospike nozzles essentially creating a ‘Vortex-based Virtual Aerospike’ formed by a set of vortices, a column of air and other complex aerodynamic phenomena to achieve a 100% truncated aerospike (made out of air itself).
