Is this effect usable to make a rocket that doesn't need to carry its own propellant mass but instead can make it on the fly from (eg. Laser supplied) electricity?

- realce 4y agooh ok
- WHATDOESIT 4y agoCould you please describe why not? Seems like they're making matter from electricity here. I'm not a physicist in any way but I'm really interested in knowing what I'm missing so I can learn about it.
- awb 4y agoE = mc^2 A ton of energy would be needed to transform into a tiny amount of mass.
- galaxyLogic 4y agoOr you could say that a ton of energy equals a ton of mass
