Pangea Aerospace is only studying an aerospike rocket engine to sell to other rocket builders; a very interesting presentation on a French Youtube network

The French video in short:

Pangea Aerospace make break true in Aerospike engine !
They solve thermic problems of those engines,
by use nickel alloy for combustion chamber, with 20 higher heat transfer to cooling system,
They cool the combustion chamber with liquid Methane and also WITH liquid Oxygen !

This could be used for reentry were Aerospike nozzle is aktive cooled with methane and Oxygen

Its radical change from Hydrogen Oxygen Aerospike engines we know
and step towards operational system that use methane and Oxygen
