how much thrust does this thing put out?
I am guessing it is a high speed low torque engine or the thrust involved
during this test would rip your facilities to shreds. correct? I am
guessing you need a hydrogen/oxygen rocket system to thrust accelerate it
and then start up this thing. like shifting gears in an automobile.
Look at this guys.. THIS is the way of the future! See you near Saturn one
day! 😄
Now all you need is an electrical power source that can deliver 200kW+ for
months in space?
Awesome it burns blue, that is inexplicably cool !
yeah, science
Master Chief, We are one step more closer to you!
Great drone music :-)
Looks exactly like the engine that powered the Imperial star destroyers.
That’s so fucking cool. 
Engage warp drive.
How many days would it take for that system to make it to the moon?
K-den…..
im living in the future
Awesome hope they take over main stream rocket propulsion.
Jesus? is that you?
Looks 1,000,000 times more clean then rocket fuel…
I think I read that they were supposed to test this on the international
space station this year. Anyone know if they have yet?
@GangsterHutterite This is not made for use in an atmosphere. It is to be
used in space. If it could work in an atmosphere(I do not know if it can)
it would use far to much power.
@Heds123 It’s hard to compare the two. VASIMR won’t get you off the ground,
because it has low thrust. But it’s very fuel efficient such that the total
acceleration you can get out of it per unit mass of fuel is far greater
than conventional rockets.
You would be surprised, this is really good tech that is in the works.
Conventional tech would be used to get the rocket up there, however once
this is in space it will constantly increase velocity
Sick! the sooner us humans leave earth the better
Wow, thx for the explanation. If u talk about fusion can antimatter play
some role in this, maybe as a fuel? Still even we reach speed of light we
need more than that to travel to galaxies. I think something like
hyperspace jump into time travel faster than light. I value your comments
its very cool to know about things like that!
Yup. If you have a decently sized fusion reactor. :)
plasma?
They need a flux capacitor if they really want to get things moving.
