Interesting new Ion engine design - Scott Evil - 12/14/2005 4:51:12 PM
- I wonder how much more effecient this engine is, exactly? - alcaray - 12/14/2005 6:22:52 PM
  - It sounds like the fuel efficiency (Isp) is roughly the same... - Larry J - 12/14/2005 7:10:06 PM
  - I would think so... - Scott Evil - 12/14/2005 7:05:27 PM
    - I wonder how it compares to VASIMR - Larry J - 12/14/2005 7:12:04 PM

        it would be nice to see the technology develop without being 100% dependant of the Space program. - Scott Evil - 12/14/2005 11:15:37 PM
