In what category would an Inverse Gravity Vehicule fall under?

Hi Ste-Marie,

On Earth, in a car, we move by traction (friction). In space we can move
in one of two ways, by external force, or by reaction force. External
force so far as we know in the Solar System, can only be applied by
Solar Wind, which is very feeble - and for which you would need large
solar sails. Reaction force is the standard way to move in space, where
you throw away a part of the mass of the system, and by Newtonian
mechanics (The third law, to every action there is an equal and opposite
reaction), you move in the opposite direction. That is why a mighty
rocket delivers only a fraction of its original mass as payload - the
rocket sacrifices itself to impart high velocity to the payload..

It is worth reviewing what we Indians call 'Fundas' once in a while.
Half the mistakes scientists make is not in high-flown equations, but in
simple things, so your questions are very pertinent.
