Nuclear fusion rocket eingine
http://wsx.lanl.gov/mtf.html
http://wsx.lanl.gov/MTF/mtf-pix/imag...atic-color.jpg Looks like a candidate for a nuclear fusion rocket engine, I kid you not. What would the ISP be of such an engine? 10.000 seconds or so? Could this make cheap space travel with tiny spaceships a reality? You know like the one in Aliens which is about as big as a helicopter yet is still able to go into orbit. -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com
