NASA successfully trials an EM drive, possibly Warp drive!

Obviously, a virtual plasma toroid is created that could realize net thrust using magnetohydrodynamic forces acting upon quantum vacuum fluctuations.

I know. All technobollocks to me too!

yeah, you can enfold the ship in a tokamak while you're at it...

Oh yeh, I was going by the quote.
They haven't explained it though. If you accelerate a heavy space craft to mind-blowing speeds, that's a hell of a lot of momentum in the direction of Mars.
They haven't said where the equal and opposite momentum is at all.

That is an embarrassingly bad omission which make it look like bollocks.
What kind of scientist would promote something like this without explaining how momentum is conserved?

It works. Why the hell wouldn't you promote it??

the whole thing looks like a hoax

You're a hoax.

your face is a hoax

If it looks too good to be true then usually it is. The face I mean.

If it doesn't use reaction mass, at first sight it looks like you are creating momentum out of nothing. A heck of a lot of it, in a space vehicle that can travel to Mars at blinding speeds.

What? It damages your eyesight too?

Rockette Morton, surely?

I am, as well you know, working within an oral tradition.

Hehe... you said "oral"...

Apparently.

So my mum told me anyway.

If it works, you would.

I don't believe it does work. I don't believe it doesn't work.

But I do believe it PROBABLY won't work.

They are confirming that it works. Can you not read?? It's been shown to work in multiple labs across the world.

Post by **Svartalf** » Thu May 07, 2015 10:21 am

I read in the article specifically that it has NOT been confirmed by other labs or teams and that an error remains a possibility...

You know that the only way to to settle this is by cutlass, right?
