In a message dated 99-02-13 16:35:08 EST, you write:
<< I'd assume an antimatter drive works by using the a/m to heat normal
matter
to high temperatures and use that as the propellant, rather than use a
1:1
ratio of a/m to matter. I don't know a lot about advanced propulsion
types--does this proposal make sense? >>
It does, but I would say that an anti-matter/matter power source would
provid
fast moving particles that would induce an electric field in a magnetic
coil,
that would give you your generator, then you could use the electicity to
power
your proposhion system.
