And if that method doesn't work there are other ways around it to allow for propulsion in a vacuum. There are two elements one cannot do without: high-voltage, asymmetry. The asymmetry can be due to the conductive part (lifters for example), to the dielectric part (as in the Serrano patent), or a c...

What is believed to work however is a lifter with a solid dielectric between two electrodes. And the material can be any High K material such as barium titanate etc.. And with the use of that kind of material ion cloud formation should occur and generate the expected propulsion given that even in s...

If there are hidden reasons besides the ion wind, the only way to develop a theory is rely on benchmark experiments. The Serrano device is claimed to run mainly because of other unknown effects. To investigate on this it is necessary to have more simple tests that at present seem unavailable. The ro...

Hi, I discovered this forum only recently and I would like to express my opinion and make some questions. I personally believe that the ion wind is just a side effect and the reason for asymmetric forces should be investigated within the properties of dielectrics when exposed to suitably strong elec...
