A #DirectFusionDrive* could propel a #spacecraft to #Mars 🔴 in two months. For comparison, it took #NASA’s Perseverance rover about seven months to reach the Red Planet. https://payloadspace.com/helicity-raises-5m-for-in-space-fusion-propulsion/
Exhaust speeds are calculated to be roughly one-thousand times that of a #HallEffectThruster https://www.space.com/nuclear-fusion-breakthrough-spacetravel
📆 August 7, 2023 fusion ignition 💥 breakthrough https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/us-scientists-repeat-fusion-power-breakthrough-ft-2023-08-06/
