You can only expect a citation to the patent that will be filed some
months in the future, nothing else I think.

Not terribly encouraging given past experience with people claiming to
have invented a reactionless drive.

Here is a NASA paper on the subject of reactionless drives that simply
don't work, at least some of which were patented.

I hope that the above will shed some light on wny I'm quite skeptical.

you just don't get the point.

there is nothing mechanical, nor moving parts in an electromagnetic
reactionless drive.


I believe you that there are no moving parts. On the other hand, if you
look at a SpaceX launch, you really see it moving.

no I see it imploding during tests, and NASA's Loverro going away.

reactionless drive is not antigravity.
