I know that is a joke but if you wanted to generate enough force to push the ship off the bank, a rocket is one of the few technologies that would do the trick.

- rektide 6y agoyou are thinking 1.0 scale. you need to start thinking starlink scale enterprising. quantity not quality. one rocket would rip the ship into pieces. what's actually needed is a long 2d matrix of rockets, distributed broadly the across EVER GIVEN, pushing the bow in, the stern out & back. out like she came.

- m4rtink 6y agoThis is starting to really resemble how people build ships in Space Engineers. :)
- avereveard 6y agoThe number of thruster used there is more of a limitation in thrust power than in rigidity, grids don't flex and thruster off center placement don't generate momentum
- AuryGlenz 6y agoMight as well make them fireworks while you’re at it so there can either be a celebration at the end or, even better, a celebration of failure.
