Propellant-less electric spacecraft engine?

(1/1)

Circlotron:
Don’t know whether this belongs in dodgy technology or not. It’s way beyond me.

What's with their obsession with elephants?

Edit: look out for the jumpscare on page 43  :-DD

Sheesh. He seems to have a serious bee in his bonnet about PhDs. And he seem incapable of introducing this complex topic at an accessible level.

I gave up after page 7 (except a quick scan for elephants) and a look at his patent claims which are a million miles from a functioning propulsion system.

bdunham7:
EmDrive was a widely-ridiculed concept until a NASA team announced that it appeared to work a little bit.  That result has not been validated or replicated.  This appears to be the same notion, repackaged.

FYI, for space geeks and physics nuts, the Pioneer Anomaly is worth checking out as a form of 'free-energy' spacecraft deceleration.
