We like to think, as human beings, if we can only keep an open mind, that anything is possible. That if we put our minds to it, buckle down and do our research and apply ourselves 100%, we can not ...

Who needs the laws of physics, anyway? Not NASA. At least, that is what a new peer-reviewed paper indicates. The paper discusses what was a fuel-free rocket engine, which tests now show works. But how ...

Space travel powered by an “impossible” engine that breaks the laws of physics sounds too good to be true, and it probably is. The so-called EM drive – a rocket engine powered by electromagnetic waves ...

Last year, NASA’s advanced propulsion research wing made headlines by announcing the successful test of a physics-defying electromagnetic drive, or EM drive. Now, this futuristic engine, which could ...

The reactionless thruster known as the EM Drive has stirred heated debate over the past few years. If successful it could provide a new and powerful method to take our spacecraft to the stars, but it ...

The biggest obstacle in the quest to put manned missions into deep space has always been the time it takes to get there. With the current types of propulsion systems, it would take about nine months ...

One of the most controversial stories in science right now is the EM Drive, a hypothetical new type of spacecraft engine that seems to break the laws of physics. While many scientists are highly ...

The EM Drive is one of the most controversial pieces of technology in the realm of space science, and it's about to be put to the test for the first time. Theoretically, the EM Drive can generate ...

A recent paper in the Journal of Propulsion and Power from NASA outlines the possibility of a working EM Drive, a propulsion system that uses microwaves bouncing around inside a cavity to produce ...

German scientists have confirmed that an Electromagnetic Propulsion Engine, claimed by some to be 'impossible', actually works. The EM Drive breaks the conservation of momentum law of physics, which ...

The next 50 years of spaceflight will carry many challenges and surprises for explorers hoping to extend their reach into the cosmos. But it will also likely hold untapped riches for space science and ...
