Episode: Alternative Forms of Space Flight
Description: Every single rocket that has ever been launched into space has been a rocket that burned some sort of fuel. These chemical fuel rockets have worked well for making the short trip to orbit. Beyond that point, however, they are not necessarily the best option for space travel. There are a host of proposed methods for space travel that don’t involve rockets, some of which have already been tested. Learn more about alternative forms of space flight and the possible future of space exploration on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
