This is the long sought “impulse” drive of Star Trek lore. Its odd, because there is no propellant- like an expanding gas in rocket fuel- to generate the thrust. So... you have a blast of high energy “light”- micro waves which are close to radio waves. You don’t get this magic thrust from any other form of light. What is going on? Lots of theories, little actual facts; other than the fact that it seems to work. Well work this one out... then on the warp engine ‘-)

Can’t imagine it would make ya go very fast.

We need them “Dilithium Crystals” to produce all the energy for the EM drive!

This explains why every month I have to push the microwave back to the center of the counter. I thought the kids were doing it, now I realize it's the small impulse field it generates.
