Revolutionary New Kind of Aircraft Propulsion System, Made of Rotating Cylinders

Hello,

Any of you UFOnaughts remember the stories of red mercury, or stories of the Nazi Bell? This is not that kind of propulsion but it might be inspired by it.

This has been around a while but still looks fascinating. Anyone have a video link ?

It's not really a "New Kind of Aircraft Propulsion". It's still thrust based. At the most basic level, turbines are just fancy propellers. Rockets and certain types of jet engines do away with that altogether, but are also thrust based and nothing new. UFO propulsion seems to work on some other principle that directly counters and manipulates gravity. That's the nut we still have to crack.

It's certainly another version of mass reaction propulsion, along with the chemical rocket and air breathing jet engines. I'm wondering if its means of converting mechanical energy into air as an exhaust gas is based on something new. Or maybe the better question is whether it's significantly more efficient than impellers or rotor blades. Or quieter?

Good point, just looked cool to me.

It is. I like new cool technology too .
