The revolutionary space propulsion system, known as the EM drive has been demonstrated by scientists at Dresden University to work, creating thrust from the “quantum space vacuum”, effectively removing the need for propellant.

There are still further tests needed, but the device generates thrust from what appears to be nothing.

This has the potential to revolutionise the travel to other parts of the solar system.
