Hogwash?
Yes. It appears to ignore the issue of generating 60 Watts of RF at 2GHZ (in the test example).
This sounds like pop science BS, but appears to be a real experiment at JSC.
I’m very skeptical.

Can this have any other use other than propulsion in a vacuum?

It appears that the experiment is a legitimate one.

I think the issue is one of beaming microwave to the thruster in space to drive it. It still requires an external RF source.
