Hello all
I've been reading about the quantum vacuum plasma thruster. On the surface it sounds great. My question is, well, is it legitimate? I don't have the expertise to give it a yea or nea. Could someone who knows what they are talking about give me an answer. It seems like a miracle "space drive". It could be my ticket to the outer solar system. I want so bad for it to work, but do you think it will? There have been some nice PDFs and some say NASA is working on it.
IS IT REAL?

Some quick advice: get your money back. And if you haven't laid out any money yet, don't.

I always love the "NASA is working on it" touch. I bet the military has a top secret project on it too. :smile:
