NASA’S NEW VASIMR PLASMA ENGINE COULD REACH MARS IN LESS THAN 6 WEEKS snip VASIMR heats plasma, an electrically charged gas, to exceptionally high temperatures using radio waves. The system then offers thrust by funneling the hot plasma out of the back of the engine. According to Diaz, VASIMR will save thousands of gallons of rocket fuel and tens of millions of dollars a year. [ link to www.physics-astronomy.org (secure)]
