Title: NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS) 19800010907: Field resonance propulsion concept Creator / Author: NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS); Holt, A. C. Publication Date: 1979-08-01 Language: English Pages: 15 Identifier: NASA_NTRS_Archive_19800010907 Identifier-ark: ark:/13960/t0vq7r69k Collections: NASA Network Resource and Training Site (NASA_NTRS_Archive); US Government Mirrored Documents (usgovernmentmirrors); Government Documents (Worldwide) (government-documents) A propulsion concept was developed based on a proposed resonance between coherent, pulsed electromagnetic wave forms, and gravitational wave forms (or space-time metrics). Using this concept a spacecraft propulsion system potentially capable of galactic and intergalactic travel without prohibitive travel times was designed. The propulsion system utilizes recent research associated with magnetic field line merging, hydromagnetic wave effects, free-electron lasers, laser generation of megagauss fields, and special structural and containment metals. The research required to determine potential, field resonance characteristics and to evaluate various aspects of the spacecraft propulsion design is described.
