Offtopic NASA invents EM drive, could enable travel to a nearby star system in o
I said I would post a link in another thread.

Apparently this will dramatically cut down the cost of space travel. I guess it means they won't need to haul tons of fuel into space either. Astronaus could travel to Mars in weeks instead of months.
On the other thread, I was wondering if this continuous thrust could build up to be a very powerful explosive force if it could build up and be released in one powerful punch. I guess it could if someone developed a weapon this tiny thrust could act upon creating a super massive potential explosion with another substance that needed a trigger to go off. Fortunately I didn't get hired to create ideas for explosives companies. I just had an idea for explosives using nano materials.
What do you think about the new engine drive? Good news I think.

Sort of like, According to the laws of physics, bumble bees and C5's can't fly, at least I've been told that.
I think this is an interesting experiment and maybe an important discovery about the nature of the fabric of spacetime....but I doubt it.
