Even a small coffee fuels the next big idea. ☕ Support here: https://buymeacoffee.com/spacestartup... ------- In this video, we dive into how the Neumann Drive, a pulsed cathodic arc thruster (CTPCAT) that blasts conductive metal rods (like aluminium, magnesium, titanium, and more) into plasma to generate high-efficiency thrust. This system uses cheap, abundant, safe metals that are easy to handle, fully pre-loaded, and even recyclable from space debris! This metal drive system could make orbital manoeuvres safer, cheaper, and more accessible. Watch to see why metal might be the key to the next era of space exploration!
