Want to go to Mars in 39 days?

Interesting new development in space travel. A Nova Scotia company that builds transmitters for radio stations is helping develop a new plasma rocket engine that could cut a trip to Mars down to just 40 days.

Plasma rockets provide stream of hot gas that accelerate a spacecraft. Spacecraft would turn plasma engines to its destination. Opposite direction to slow down. A spaceship using plasma propulsion could reach Mars in 40 days.

WOW?

Would love to go, I have always felt a twang when mars is mentioned , like a home sick child. My dreams have often given details of mars to me and I feel like I know it well.

Thanks for posting this.

I want to go to Mars in 3 days. Or less. Field propulsion, electrogravitics, magnetogravitics. We've known how to do this (in black projects) since the 1950s. By some accounts, we have the technology well in hand now, and have craft with superluminal speeds.

I want to go to Mars too but 40 days is too long. ;)

When are we going to see these black projects decloaked and learn our TRUE abilities as a species?

When are we going to see these black projects decloaked and learn our TRUE abilities as a species?

When
a) the black projects get repainted white
b) we build our own
