      Exactly! Old technology...but for some reason the media is running wild with it. It's only taken 30 years and although it's old tech. It will be a new standard for transportation and it's commercial implications for vendors within the borders of the United States. Hopefully we won't start going backwards by giving away our technology to foreign companies...or countries

    Physics is a hard science, but describing it seems even harder for many. NASA's so-called "propellant less" space drive is being described as something that "defies the laws of physics." But, does it actually "defy" physics? No technology--that at least a Kardashev 0 species like humanity can design--is able to literally defy the laws of physics. (Perhaps a K4 and above can.) So, what these otherwise brilliant scientists and engineers really should be saying is that the new NASA engine is far better at MANIPULATING the laws of physics than has any spacecraft propulsion device prior to it. Using the right language makes for a strong presentation.

    What I like the most about these is that the amount of reaction mass needed is so much less than the combustion mass needed for the same amount of Delta Vee, that it's almost zero.
    Certainly not p[ropellant free, but very certainly LESS PROPELLANT.
    And we can lift FAR more spacecraft now that we don't need to lift 10 times their weight in fuel.
    Or more.

    If we set about to map all the plasma discharges that are emitted by the sun and connect to each planet - google "nasa magnetic ropes" these could then possibly be used as plasma highways for probes to draw their power from, and if we could do this we could perhaps map the Plasma conduits (birkeland currents) that connect the stars that have been hypothesised and send probes along these intersteller birkeland currents drawing the power for these electric/ion engines

    My understanding is that an electric field produced by a fairly strong voltage between a cathode and anode needs to be generated to accelerate electrons from the cathode towards the anode so that they can collide with Argon atoms to absorb enough energy to remove an electron and then have the Ar+ ion be pushed out by the electric field at a high velocity. Ok, where does the energy come from to produce the electric field voltage?

    • @grumpystiltskin

      Space is full of energy! Usually you have too much if you are anywhere near the sun. And you can carry along those "Nasa's Shortcut to Fusion" lattice confined fusion devices to donate neutrons to throium and natural uranium. Or if you have too much money and too much time you can get DOE to maybe sell you some Pu but then the neighbors at the Cape will get (needlessly) nervous.

    Thrust is stone age.
    Although gravity moves at the speed of light it cannot change direction as quickly. This can be exploited in many industries to reduce or eliminate fuel: from building to transportation.
    In space the solution for fast travel is somewhat different, although based on same fundamental principles; this is the asymmetric rotating magnetic field. Not only is propulsion achieved at near speed of light, but electrical energy is a free by product --own oxygen supply is essential.
    This is not speculation.
