Vacuum Propeller

By Jim Silvers

The Polar Ion Electromagnetic Vortex (P.I.E.V) is made of thirty-six pulse P.I.E.s. A Pulse Polar Ion Engine(Pulse-P.I.E.) is an Ion Engine that gives off a pulse of negative ions, stops, then gives a pulse of positive ions and so on and so on and so on.

A P.I.E.V. is a combination of 36 "Pulse P.I.E .s" creating 2 electromagnetic fields. The first field is used to protect the crew by creating an electromagnetic field around the ship. The second field is for funneling the gasses that are in space into the engines.

This ship will be 1/3 military and powered by 2 nuclear reactors. Besides also having other means of creating and harnessing alternate sources of energy, the ship will have L.E.D., fiber-optic and electro-chemical means of lighting.

P.S. Anyone got a Gravity Nullifier?
