Answered perfectly! Thank you makes sense on why it wouldn't work. I'll keep thinking lol

By that model one could hope for a "fuel less" aircraft powered by a small reactor in the future.

also forgot to mention this idea came after reading an article about elon musk wanting "reusable" ships

That was my questing, sorry for not being clear, is there a way to Ionize the air molecules in front and attract them to the rear (to put it simply). Edit: As far as energy, the required amount needed to do this(if possible) isn't something I've got the knowledge to figure out. Are we talking...

Let me preface this by saying I have no background in physics or any of the above other than hours and hours of reading. Could someone explain why (if a method was developed) we couldn't use EFA as a thrust system for a rocket? My reasoning is instead of using fuel to fight gravity and push...
