Main Page

Welcome to the EM Drive wiki.

This site is a repository of the current information available for the EM Drive project, as initially discussed in the 4/29/15 blog post on NasaSpaceFlight.com. It is currently being researched by several groups around the world, including by a team at NASA Eagleworks. The goal here is to present all the background documentation in one place, so people following the forum threads can quickly get up to speed on what has been previously discussed.

Please note that this is an unmoderated, community-run site that discusses a rather controversial topic. As such, anyone is free to write whatever she/he wants regarding her/his own work or posts regarding the EM Drive. However, other people's work (whether they be posts in the NasaSpaceFlight.com forums or elsewhere) should only be linked or quoted verbatim (but never paraphrased). This will prevent a repeat of the problems witnessed in the past due to the false and/or misleading reports in the media about the current state of EM Drive research.
