Summary
A
Magnetoplasmadynamic Thruster
(MPDT) is an advanced form of
Electric propulsion system
that utilizes the
Lorentz Force
to
Accelerate plasma
and
Generate thrust
. It offers the potential for
High-efficiency propulsion
in
Space Travel
, particularly for
Long-duration missions
, but requires
Significant power input
and is still under
Active research and development
.
