Cosmos:elementary | The truth about “NASA’s impossible drive” / Emdrive @Cosmos_elementary | Uploaded September 2021 | Updated October 2024, 6 hours ago.
The concept of Emdrive appeared in early 2000. The drive that should violate laws of physics but also the drive that works, at least according to the inventors. There were some controversial test results, so let’s figure out what this drive is, how it’s supposed to work and look at the most recent data.
