Mark Rademaker, working with Dr. White of NASA Eagleworks has created a vision of a EMDrive powered solar system explorer ship.
10 of 20 EMDrive pods
Based on Dr. Whites other data, IXS Clark data is:
1) 90t or 90,000kgs
2) 2MWe nuclear generator in the aft section of the ship. That is a max electricity availability of 2MWh of electricity every hour or 2,000kWh per hour.
3) 20 EMDrive propellantless force generators rated at 4N of force generation per kW of applied microwave power. (4N/kW)
4) Total force generation of 8,000N being 2,000 kW of power at 4N per kW. 2,000kW * 4N/kW = 8,000 Newtons of force to drive the 90t ship. 8,000N is approx 816kg of force.
5) Continual acceleration will then be A = F/M or 0.088g = 8,000N/90,000kgs
Which means that as long as the nuclear generator on the IXS Clark can generate 2,000kW of electricity, the ship will continue to accelerate at 0.088g
These are the potential voyages of the IXS Clark
Mars
Jupiter
Saturn
Uranus
Neptune
Pluto
Proxi Centura
