SUMMARY
The discussion confirms that space-time does not differ for ionized fuel moving near the speed of light within a magnetic field, as posed in the title question. Participants unanimously agree that virtual particles are not actual particles and do not exhibit linear motion; they serve merely as mathematical tools in calculations. Additionally, it is established that magnets do not emit particles, and magnetic fields cannot be directed like lasers to create travel paths. The consensus emphasizes the need for clarity in questioning to facilitate better discussions.
