Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think in Firefly they used anti-matter to "burn" across the solar system. Basically used it once you were out of atmosphere to cause a big explosion and plot you on a course that worked more like a ballistic movement than a consistently propelled one.
This stuff is always awesome to hear about, especially right now, it's kind of odd.
Obama is addressing the nation about the credit rating being downgraded by S&P, gold is at an all-time high, we're talking about entering the double dip of our recession; yet every ten minute I read about a scientific breakthrough so awesome it makes me forget we don't have rocket cars.
Is anyone else feeling that?
