Featherweight flyers could ‘levitate’ above Earth indefinitely – New Study



Making use of an obscure physics effect to fly, devices could probe the upper atmosphere and explore Mars



Summary

Scientists are exploring the use of the “Biefeld-Brown effect,” a phenomenon involving asymmetric capacitors generating thrust, for innovative aerospace applications. This technology could enable lightweight, power-efficient devices to navigate the upper atmosphere, where traditional aircraft struggle. Furthermore, it holds potential for exploring Mars. By generating thrust using electricity, these devices could overcome the challenges of the planet’s thin atmosphere, potentially leading to novel methods for atmospheric monitoring and surface exploration, offering a cheaper and more adaptable alternative to conventional rockets.
