Research abstract
THE OBJECTIVE OF THE PROPOSED PROGRAM IS TO INVESTIGATE AND QUANTIFY IN A LABORATORY VACUUM ENVIRONMENT THE PERFORMANCE OF A KNOWN BUT INADEQUATELY EXPLORED CONCEPT FOR CONVERTING ELECTROSTATIC FIELD ENERGY DIRECTLY INTO A PROPULSIVE FORCE. THE CONCEPT MAY REPRESENT A DIRECT FIELD-VACUUM INTERACTION SCHEME WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR PRODUCING THRUST WITHOUT THE CONVENTIONAL EJECTIVE EXPENDITURE OF AN ONBOARD FUEL.
