Quoting: DailyMailThe radical, fuel-free EmDrive recently stirred up controversy after a paper published by a team of NASA researchers appeared to show they’d successfully built the technology. If the physics-defying concept is brought to reality, it’s said the engine could get humans to Mars in just 10 weeks. But now, scientists with the China Academy of Space Technology claim NASA’s results ‘re-confirm’ what they’d already achieved, and have plans to implement it in satellites ‘as quickly as possible.’ they still need the sun for power. emdrive converts sun rays to electric plasma |

Éireann User ID: 73050092 Ireland 12/26/2016 03:43 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Just curious if you might know the answer to this question, but how does the EmDrive produce new microwaves once they have been expelled from the drive to create thrust? Please feel free to dumb it down as I'm a Linguist and not an Astrophysicist.

Kirk User ID: 52801094 United States 12/26/2016 03:53 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | the team has built a prototype that so far generates just a few millinewtons of thrust, IBTimes UK reports. As you would expect. An asymmetrical oscillator is what is desired so you can produce a net force. I know of one with a theoretical efficiency of around 40%, proof of concept has been accomplished. An inertial thruster in other words, an impulse drive. Government is a body largely ungoverned. |

Also, meaning it would probably take weeks or longer to get to maximum velocity. Slowing down would take just about as long, since the weight will decrease only slightly.
