: Action/reaction problem. with that much thrust, it could not be in orbit..

216.244.12.159

late,

If a rocket motor were projecting a million degree heat 5 miles wide against the Earth from orbit, the considerable energy of the radiating heat would push it away at an astounding rate. It would need an equal or greater thrust in the opposite direction to stay in orbit. Think of the fuel bills?

What kind of spark plugs would this craft use?

Cheers,
