#thruster

I was at the Udvar-Hazy Center with @ms-dos5 and spotted a Lucite-encased thruster from Gemini VIII (Neil Armstrong's first space flight), and thought "wait, haven't I seen that somewhere before?

A biopunk spaceship could plausibly use an ion engine to propel itself. I imagine such a system would be made up of: a gas bladder (or series of gas bladders) to store the propulsion gas, a large organ of electrolytes (like those found on strongly electric fish), and the thruster itself: the positively charged walls of the thruster will likely be a variant of the electrolyte not designed to have the ability to release such a charge and to gather a far more intense positive charge, and two grids of conductive material to propel the now ionized gas, thus creating thrust.

Unfortunately such a thruster would likely have to be pulsed (unless a set of electrocyte organs were set up in such a manner that one was dischargeing while the others where recharging).

Gym time 4/10 ^^
