i believe it is possible for space flight without the use of fossil fuels. although it may sound a little back to the future. flux density, may be the power of the future. spin two discs each with inversely mounted magnets, on the same axis, in opposite directions at a speed fast enough to produce a flux equal to the magnetic pull of the earth and what might you achieve, weightlessness,on the reverse side produces pull. the earths magnetic core works on a positive negative principle, why aren't we working with those things we have, knowledge

i think you mean if the government doesn't get rich from it their not interested. rev you must understand there are factions out in this world that beleive there is a possibility that there may be other possibilities of travel, maybe a little star trek.where were we 30 years ago, we have scanners now, hand held heart monitors, body part replacement, exact fit or adjusted to meet the nesecary criteria. everyone has a computer, that i know, we talk with people , most of us 15 years ago would not have thought possible. time is changeing. i put my thoughts out to those who will listen and may or may not agree to some of my ideas.i look to speak with the forward speakers of our planet. remember rocket man?

sorry rev i meant forward thinkers, of which i consider you, your discussions are very interesting and informative. i am happy to be one of your following

Modern space flight doesn't use fossil fuels. I don't really see how you would create such a large magnetic field. Sorry.

thanx i needed someone with a different point of view. are you educated in the field?we both know rockets use liquid oxygen and a solid rocket booster fuel of some kind. i spoke with another mylotter, who worked in a facility that produced the fuel through a reactor. must be some kinda reactor if it doesn't consume some fuel. now as far as produceing a large magnetic flux field there was nothing said about the size of the disc or dimensions. only the dimension of thought of the possibility of this drive. are you a thinker. i'd like to talk with you more

not one, but several flux densities, maybe a thousand, inversely proportionate. whichever number it requires to produce the drive capable of offsetting the earths gravitational pull. could be one large, could be 1320 small

My degree is in physics and astronomy. Have you actually done any of the math for this? How do you know 1320 small plates? What is your basis for thinking that any of this would work?

Sure sounds like a money saver and environment friendly to me. Of course, I am not an expert on things of science and technology so you couldn't prove it by me. But I agree with you when you ask why someone in high places is not giving more money for research since I am sure that there are those that have the knowledge.

The main external tank that the Space Shuttle uses is liquid oxygen... not exactly dangerous to the environment.

By "not exactly" are you saying that there might be some danger?

No, sorry, sarcasm don't carry over well here. To be exact, Liquid oxygen is not harmful in any way at all. The air we breathe is about 20% oxygen.
