Russia is extensively testing a new plasma based rocket engine that will use charged hydrogen particles to gain turbulent ...

Once this division has occurred, researchers must suspend the antimatter particle so it doesn’t ... out an order of priorities for antimatter propulsion research going forward.

While an antimatter engine is very far off, researching it could yield other discoveries as well.

Other options like electric propulsion and solar sailing are efficient ... The Antiproton Decelerator, a massive particle accelerator at CERN, makes about 10 nanograms of antiprotons a year ...

Achieving practical interstellar travel requires overcoming the immense challenge of reaching extraordinary velocities. To send a spacecraft, weighing roughly 1,000 kilograms, to a neighboring star ...

These vehicles rely on propulsion systems that generate immense thrust to overcome Earth's gravitational pull and achieve the necessary velocity for orbital insertion or interplanetary travel.

Chemical propulsion is one of the most widely studied mechanisms for nanoswimmers. In this approach, the nanoswimmer is typically designed as a Janus particle, with two distinct surface properties.

Once this division has occurred, researchers must suspend the antimatter particle so it doesn’t recombine with ... The scientists lay out an order of priorities for antimatter propulsion research ...
