what is the purpose of the ion propelled engine?
What kind of propulsion could help future space missions?
I mean, everybody except NASA sees that you just don’t get good space mileage on rocket fuel. Space is just too big, and gas tanks won’t get us out of our own backyard. There is Ion Propulsion. That has been proven to work in the probes the launched with it. That could potentially take you […]
How close is the human race to perfecting an anti-matter space travel engine?
I’ve heard the ion engine is close, but anti-matter is apparently superior as far as distance traveled, and effiecency. I reach out to anyone that loves the thought of finding another intelligent civilitation.
Are there any experimental planes utilizing ion thrusters?
I was watching a “documentary” about the “UFO” sightings over Phoenix on Mar 13, 1997 and I was wondering if the lights could be cause by advanced ion thrusters (which are real as you and me) on an experimental aircraft. Is there any known X-planes using ion propulsion or leaks about black budget programs making […]
Japan’s Solar Sail Photographed in Orbit
Japan’s Solar Sail Photographed in Orbit If seeing is believing, this picture comes as sweet relief to a satellite operations team in Japan that has been overseeing the flight of an experimental solar sailing spacecraft. The Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency, known as JAXA, captured the image … Read more on Discovery News
Headlines: State tax credits OK’d for 10 firms
Headlines: State tax credits OK’d for 10 firms The Michigan Economic Growth Authority board approved $65 million in state tax credits Tuesday for 10 companies that plan to grow their operations in Michigan, adding 978 new jobs and retaining 2,022 existing positions. The largest investment will be made by Detroit Diesel, which aims to invest […]
Multiple choice question about ion propulsion?
NASA’s Deep Space 1 probe used ion propulsion technology to propel it into outer space. Ion propulsion uses an electric charge to ionize atoms such as xenon. These ions are funneled from the exhaust of the craft at such high speends that it is pushed in the opposite direction and propelled into space. The electrical […]
Crystal Ion – Aerodynamic Air Turbine Engine Vortex Implosion
The Aerodynamic Air Turbine Engine (AATE), aptly named “The Crystal Ion”, will be the energy revolution we have been waiting for. Clean energy utilizing the force of nature (the vortex) to create powerful and sustainable motion with no detrimental environmental impact is here. The air we breathe is the same air that drives the AATE; […]

is the ion engine better than the rocket engine?
i heard the the ion engine is slow but last long before running out of fuel and the rocket engine blast off at top speeds but last only in a few seconds or minutes depending on the fuel tank

How far could Ion propulsion and a Solar Sail take you?
Hi, I’ve been trying to work out how far you could get using a spacecraft which uses both a solar sail and ion propulsion. The nearest star (other than the sun) Is proxima centauri, which is 4.22 light years away. Could we send a spacecraft all the way to proxima centauri, using just a solar […]
