What is Plasma Beam Propulsion for Space Travel about?
A professor is proposing a concept called Mag-beam that would use plasma beam stations in orbit around planets to accelerate and decelerate spacecraft, allowing much faster travel through the solar system by leaving the heavy propulsion systems behind on the stations rather than onboard the spacecraft. This approach could cut round trip travel time to Mars to 3 months and Jupiter to 1 year, but setting up the necessary infrastructure of plasma stations would require an initial multi-billion dollar investmen
