Most of if it won't work. Since it's all based
on the assumptions of scientists and the navy's
a priori 4000 year-old Egyptian "baby and the bathwater"
/ New York Times theory of propulsion.
The weight doesn't matter of what's being lifted,
since whatever gas you use to lift is going
to solidify when it's hits a vaccum barrier,
and the friction effects are going to be
what's moving, not the rocket. Which is
just to be another NASA statue of Einstone.
