I am gonna guess that this is not necessarily to propel the rocket through space.....they are probably using this as an Idea on how to move two objects in orbit closer and farther from one another...just using electromagnets.....at least that is the only purpose I can imagine!!!
LOL!!! yeah.....this just seems like a needlesly complicated experiment to show that electromagnets attract one another!!!!! Those silly guys at MIT LOL
does anyone know what application the magnetic orbs are for? arent meteors comprised mainly of iron? clump a few that have maybe boosters or explosives? could this be used to keep satellites from colliding? i had myself declared a giant midget. the parkings great.
