NASA’s EM Drive Propulsion System Actually Works

Here is another interesting video about advanced propulsion from an astronomer an NASA:

NASA Ames Research Director’s Colloquium, August 12, 2014. Human space exploration is currently still in Low Earth Orbit. But what would it eventually take for humans to explore the outer solar system? If the ultimate objective is the stars, then what might that look like? How hard is interstellar flight?

When do you think these types of technologies could be deployed?  Feel free to comment with your ideas.

And check back ad more developments in regards to the em drive and related propulsion systems come in.

    Now for some old news…..electrogravitic craft have been used by Lockheed for over 50 years.,this crap above is useless by comparison.

    Whether or not it’s directly mediated via the quantum vacuum, if it works, it would still surely conserve momentum, and have a reaction with the surrounding EM field.. People seem to forget that the EM field really carries momentum. In this case, you could probably think of it as having a propellant consisting of radiating photons, but they might be very sublle, involving a coherent, or some other collective state, of radiation with a particular multipole field, for instance.
