And another thing..........
Those pictures that show the nifty converging arrows..IMO they're MISSING something, MISSING some arrows. Let's presume that some of the ejecta IS flowing as shown, rounding the bend of the shoulder and presumably SHOOTING across to hit the opposing wall...let's think for a moment that the door IS OPEN and these high velocity particles are present.
WHERE are the arrows representing the flowing rocket nozzle of gas going right down the center? The RIVER of ejecta lined up and flowing straight down the bore? How do those straight arrows get acros't THAT? (In three dimensions of course!)
justanother thought.
