A new means of space propulsion... closed loop pulse propulsion... here's the idea

38. Wonderful... do the math then... this is all basic stuff...

All you need to do is prove that mathematically and I'll absolutely agree with you.

There are multiple examples provided. All you have to do is make 0 = 0 and you win. Sounds like you can nail it super quick.

You have three events you need to account for... and you don't have to get all nitty gritty with it, basic is best... the proportions will match up just fine. 0 will = 0 regardless if you're right...


The first thing to account for is the transmission of linear motion to the apparatus. (We're using the railgun setup I described to the person with the PHD) So first you have to figure out how fast the recoil makes you go.

Then you got to figure out the angular momentum issue and you may want to look that up because what you said was all kinds of wrong.

And then you have to figure out how combining forces cancels them out.


Start with 0 and end with 0.... not zero.00001 it has to be zero. If it's 0.00001, you're moving. Do that and I will gladly admit you are right.
