Plasma Jet Thruster for spacecraft kickstarter
I was looking at the Mobile Bridge Project on Kickstarter today and I came across a project for prototyping Plasma Jet Electric Thrusters for Spacecraft. It made me think that perhaps one day ships like the Artemis could be traveling the solar system. The project ends tomorrow and is only a couple of thousand dollars from being funded. I thought I would share with everyone here in case some of you wanted to contribute.

Wow. This is really cool. While developing games like FTL is great, creating a real thrusters for spacecraft is like... Orders of magnitude greater.
Congratulations to them for getting it funded.

This is so cool... I'm actually starting to think inter-planetary travel will be commonplace in my lifetime. :D My best friend will love this!
