    A better engine is what is needed to get to the moon and the planets in the system

I only saw it on youtube, not the best quality, while the main narrative of the film was fairly imaginative, and designed to kind of get the ball rolling on where a group of people could go, it is certainly thought provoking. While the film was made in...

    Rocket propulsion what alternatives could there ever be?

    Hi, What alternatives could there ever be for rocket launches? I suspect as construction requires fuels that are used every day, and a rocket requires, hydrogen and oxygen to get into orbit. It is unlikely any other power could launch a payload into orbit ever. I saw a video clip example of...
