A wild idea has been proposed to generate electric power from Earth’s rotation with the help of magnetic fields. A new ...

The “caterpillar drive” in The Hunt for Red October allowed the sub to travel virtually undetected through the ocean, but real examples of magnetohydrodynamic drives (MHDs) are rare.

While Nasa’s budgetary struggle continues, the red planet may be a step closer for China after it unveiled a powerful new ...

Rosatom’s propulsion system uses a magnetic plasma accelerator, which it hopes will reduce space travel time. Mars is 140 million miles from Earth, meaning a 30-day journey would require an ...

Both missions were important technical demonstrations for the further development of electrical space propulsion systems. In an ion propulsion system, electrons are fired into a magnetic field ...

The asymmetric decomposition of the fuel creates a concentration gradient around the particle, leading to self-diffusiophoresis and propulsion. Magnetic nanoswimmers are powered by external magnetic ...

Union Minister for Railways Ashwini Vaishnaw on Saturday inspected the work being done to develop a Hyperloop pod in Chennai.
