Yup the problem with antimatter propulsion is it’s still subject to the tyranny of the rocket equation. The only way to escape that is to leverage energy external to the vehicle, like laser pushed light sales or relativistic railguns. You j

2% of total worldwide electricity use in 2022 is a shit load of electricity and emissions. Your argument is the same as those who argue "our country shouldn't care about emissions when China is the biggest emitter". If you di
