Very weird, why do you have so little views? Youre videos are great! Should be way more.
Whatever happens, pls dont give up. After some time some luck kicks in and youre videos get the views they deserve!
It takes not only skill (which you have) but also time and luck, which we dont have real control over.
I bet the views will come after some time and the algorithm takes you to the place you deserve!

Btw, youre accent really does add something special to youre videos. Sounds nice.

Narrowing down on my designs✌️.. glad that best options presented in this videos r close to my stream of thought

The Tsiokolsky formula puts the limits of speed for any starship expelling a propelent (Ciolkovski).

One interesting thing about laser powered-electric propulsion is that since the energy comes from outside the vehicle there is no limit to the specific impulse of the exhaust.What I mean is that if an hypotetical ship with a particle accelerator thruster, powered from the outside with a beam, expels particles at a speed > 70.71% c the specific impulse is greater than 299792458 N*s/kg, the speed of light ! There is
a problem though : the thrust to power ratio approaches 1/c (1 newton/300 MW) as the exhaust speed approaches lightspeed and considering the
inefficiencies of converting the energy of the beam to the energy of the exhaust, it would be better to use a laser sail 😅.

Can you do a video on the froning drive, it is a hypothetical warp drive that uses specially conditioned photons? I would like to hear your opinion on it.

I´m glad you mentioned Dr. Young K. Bae work and also the lightcraft of Dr. Leik Myrabo. Unfortunately, these technologies require a lot of energy that we are still years from generate here on Earth (I mean, exclusively to power such spaceships).

Take em electrons, put em in a cyclo, hit em photons, make em gamma, smash em together, boom electron, positron pair acquired, use em mag field seperate em make em clash at da site of propulsion, bam ultra powerful photon drive.

Photons (laser light) can be coupled with particles ...fast and massive = more thrust.

Inspiring with expt details.still you have not covered the projects as on date in space labs..pls try🙏

16:40 i remember this Experiment with a graphene sponge and a laser they wanted to cut it and it jumped

If you use light and a parabolic mirror wouldnt it concentrate the light to one point and generate a Kind of thrust?

I was reading a paper by Chinese physicists, who proposed to use radiactive decay as thrust, if the radioactive material were in the form of a thin foil, backed by some other non radioactive material, the radioisotope would emit very few particles sidewards, only forwards and backwards fro0m the large surface area.
Backwards would create thrust, but so too would the particles emitted from the forward side as they impinge on the backing material.

What sort of fission reactor were you using? What kind of fuel and what inert material was mixed with it?

I remember my past lives in some in particular i lived in outer space and on a planet not too distant from earth, yes i lived inside photon magnet powered propulsion vehicles we can use metals like mercury, gold, colliadel silver in a solar powered engine to run a mix of different UFO 👾 techologies.

Have a fusion generator for electricity to run the light engine

Dude, I thought you were about to explain the Minkowski Photon Drive. My heart stopped for a second. It's a real pain in the ass to derive the equation for the non superconductive photon drive.
Minkowski said and it was shown recently that
p = n h nu
n is index of refraction
h planks constant
nu frequency 2.4 ghz microwave oven.
Put high index of refraction material on one side of the microwave oven. The momentum transferred to the high dielectric side will be greater than the momentum transferred to the non dielectric side. This causes momentum toward the dielectric end of the microwave oven.

If you wanted to make a warp engine all you would have to do is create a engine that could emmit a field strong enough to memic gravity and produce gravity to pull u forward on the fabric of space time

Utilize a nuclear core reactor as a power plant with either nuclear batteries or nuclear reactors.

So could you compress the light and that compression would result in propulsion?
