Directory:Magnetohydrodynamics:Plasma-Powered Flying Saucers - With a span of less than 15 centimetres, Subrata Roy's aircraft qualifies as a micro air vehicle (MAV), but it has an unconventional design to say the least. It is a saucer shape covered with electrodes that ionise air to create a plasma. (PESWiki May 10, 2008)

/ Directory:Anti-Gravity / Directory:Magnetism / Directory:Propulsion > Morningstar Energy Box Announcement - Russian - The Russian energy and anti-gravity device, the "Magnetic Energy Converter" (MEC), was claimed to produce magnetic anomalies, lower the temperature of its surroundings, self-sustain without input, and even produce anti-gravity effects. Its partial replication will be announced at the Space, Propulsion & Energy Sciences International Forum (SPESIF) on March 15-17, 2011 at the University of Maryland, College Park.

Traveling at 186,000 miles per second we could get to Alpha Centauri in 4 years. Current methods of space travel can do this in 40,000 years. 7 or even 10 miles per second doesn't get us anywhere.
The future of space exploration lays in antimatter rockets

There are many variations of these types of systems, the first generation will most likely be antimatter assisted plasma fusion rockets. Well, first fusion, then fusion rockets, then antimatter assisted plasma rockets and ultimately antimatter propulsion systems which will lead the way to Alpha Centauri and beyond within the next couple of centuries.

/ Directory:Propulsion > OS:Triangle plane - Tim Harwood has proposed a project to build a remote control inertia reduced plane for under $500 with X-33 lifting body triangle to be the airframe template and with all electric thrust. As a follow-up, he proposes a OS:Philadelphia Experiment to reduce the optical visibility of a model boat and to establish a portal to hyperspace. (PESWiki January 23, 2011)
Successful test of superconducting plasma rocket engine - Ad Astra Rocket Company has successfully demonstrated operation of its VX-200 plasma engine first stage at full power and under superconducting conditions. VASIMRA engines could enable space operations far more efficiently than today's chemical rockets, and ultimately they could also greatly speed up robotic and human transit times for missions to Mars and beyond. (Space Fellowship July 6, 2009)
Laser-Powered Aircraft Are The Future of Flight. Maybe - Leik Myrabo first got the idea in 1988 and called it LightCraft, a funnel-shaped craft with a parabolic reflector back in 2000. It channels the heat generated by a laser into its center, causing it to explode, thus generating thrust. Small jets of pressurized nitrogen spin the LightCraft at 6,000 RPM to maintain stability. (Wired Feb. 20, 2009)
A Workable Fusion Starship? - Friedwardt Winterberg's innovative propulsion concept now weds magnetic mirror technologies with fusion. The interplanetary vehicle has an exhaust velocity of 100 km/s, while the launcher vehicle gets 10 km/s. (Centauri Dream Jan. 23, 2009)

NASA Holds Competition to Develop Space Vehicles - US space agency is holding a competition to develop space vehicles NASA doesn't have the time or resources to develop. The winning companies will get $500 million and NASA will merely lease them as the need arises. (Slashdot June 25, 2006)
Fuel Efficient Five-Gear Rocket Engine Designed - Rocket engines used today to launch satellites run at maximum exhaust velocity until they reach orbit. For a car, this would be analogous to staying all the time in first gear. Georgia Tech researchers have designed a new space rocket which works as if it has a five-gear transmission system.

What makes this so special is that he does it using only himself, gravity, and his incredible ingenuity. (J Walk Blog Oct. 17, 2006)
