Default Emdrive might change the law of inertia (for the Earth too!)

It conveniently assumes that it's possible to change the charges on such
a time-scale without the resulting magnetic fields totally negating the
effect.

A full analysis will show either that there's no net force, or that the
change in momentum is matched by the momentum carried off as a result of
a net radiation of electromagnetic waves in the opposite direction.

Oh, and the fact that this thing will inevitably radiate electromagnetic
waves means that it requires a constant input of power.

If one assumes that the principle of action and reaction can be overcome in electrodynamics it must accept the consequences also on the law of inertia.
And the change of the law of inertia is a great opportunity to shorten the time of interstellar travel

Let's wait and see until they can provide an actually working lab
demonstration of the principle. "we tried it with a microwave but
we blew our microwave" does not sound like a very convincing attempt,
to the contrary: it is what could have been expected by those who do
not believe in all this.



I say you only this:

1) It is right that everything passes first by a valid and convincing evidence of breach of the principle of action and reaction

2) When it is made public the pnn know-how everyone will be convinced by itself theoretically before than experimentally and anyone who has a lab of electrodynamics and wants the start of a new astronautica will try to redo experimentally what I'm doing since 2001

I don't want to withhold you from doing experiments but I do not believe
in those that have a controversial theory and see their experiments fail
all the time, then blame it on "not enough resources" instead of an error
in their theory.

Futhermore, I think even when a relativistic effect could be exploited
(like the conversion of energy to mass), it should always be taken into
account that for a drive to be useful, it has to be generating enough
force relative to the equipment mass and energy consumption to yield
a noticable accelleration. When a 50kg experiment taking a kilowatt
of power results in a force that is buried in the noise of supporting
the weight of the equipment, it is not a useful drive system.
