Re: Newton's Laws
Posted By: Mark Levin <haveblue@mac.com>Date: 2/9/02 1:22 a.m.

In Response To: Newton's Laws (NthDegree256)

: They could be using a propulsion jet system. You don't need air to push off
: of to use those. Think... our space probes, the Space Shuttle, etc, are
: all able to maneuver in the vacuum of space using propulsion jets. The key
: is in the law that states "For every action there is an equal and
: opposite reaction." By pushing energy/jet fuel out of one port, you
: create an equal pushing force in the opposite direction, pushing you
: along. No air necessary. :-)

Sure, but where's Spark gonna store all his fuel? :)

I think they have a non-Newtonian drive; neither Spark nor the Sentinels have any visible means of propulsion, especially not exhaust ports.
