Here's the (hard to find) numbers on some aerospikes vs other engines. I would've LOVED to see the RS-2200 be developed. *ON PAPER* it would've been a GREAT engine. My deep dive on aerospikes will be done this week! See anything wrong @torybruno @elonmusk? Renders - @martiandays

Oberth effect is not well appreciated. Value of high thrust low in gravity well is not captured in simple delta-v equation. One of the reasons we favor CH4 over H2.
