Water Propulsion - jet - ion - hybrid

This topic is offered in consideration of the discovery by Mars_B4_Moon of a Japanese company which is making progress in inventing (and patenting) technologies to use plain water for propulsion.

The topic ** should ** be able to accommodate ** any ** propulsion system that employs simple water molecules, either by themselves as propellant, or separated into ions for ion propulsion, or in some other way that physics may allow.

Re: Water Propulsion - jet - ion - hybrid

Water has many advantages as a propellant, if a way can be found to make it work.

I had forgotten about this topic, but found it when I searched for a topic with the word water in the title.
