The discussion focuses on the impossibility of a vehicle utilizing a rotating ball for propulsion, as it would initially push the vehicle in one direction and then reverse upon hitting an airbag, failing to create forward motion. The concept raises questions about automation and repeatability, highlighting that resetting the motion is not feasible. Any movement would result in the vehicle merely rocking back and forth without gaining progress. The conversation also touches on the inefficiency of relying on human power to drive such a mechanism. Ultimately, the thread was closed due to its violation of the Conservation of Momentum and the forum's policy against discussing propellantless propulsion.
