  1. Okay, first off i'm not 100% sure this is the correct place for this question. If it isn't, please can it be moved to where it should be. Thanks Anyway, I have a few questions relating to writing project I'm working on: basically a story about a mission to Mars with a space ship that uses EM-Drive technology as it's propulsion. I have tried my best to figure this out myself but I can't seem to make sense of it, so I figured this was the best place to find people who could either help to solve it, or at least explain it to me (I hope). My questions are (with the assumption that the EM-Drive actually works in large-scale and that its power-to-thrust ratio holds to current theories): With a vessel approximately 1,500,000Kg in weight, with a 4.7 Megawatt power supply... What would be the maximum velocity achievable for the vessel? and how long would it take to travel to mars and back under its own power? Thanks Links with more information: http://emdrive.com/firstgenapplications.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RF_resonant_cavity_thruster
