Resumen de Plasma-powered jets could take you to space
Plasma engines have been stuck in the lab for the past decade or so. And research on them has largely been limited to the idea of propelling satellites once in space.

The challenge was to develop an air-breathing plasma propulsion engine that could be used for take-off as well as high-altitude flying.
