China’s “high-thrust magnetic plasma thruster”, designed by the Xian Aerospace Propulsion Institute, was able to achieve stable operation at its full power of 100 kilowatts. “The ...

Inspired by NASA aerospace engineering, this project features a plasma thruster, designed to maximize efficiency and increase the voltage output. For that, Maker created a homemade ionic plasma ...

The Dragon spacecraft for Crew-10 was swapped due to battery problems, and the replacement spacecraft also had thruster issues that needed to be addressed. SpaceX is reviewing data from the recent ...

For the first time, scientists have 'photographed' a rare plasma instability, where high-energy electron beams form into spaghetti-like filaments. A new study, published in Physical Review Letters ...

The Plasma Burst Laser is a hitscan weapon that operates on durability rather than ammo (plus it packs quite an explosive punch). However, the Plasma Burst Laser isn’t the easiest item to come by.
