Long Name, Cool Rocket



The Variable Specific Impulse Magnetoplasma Rocket is a promising design coming to life for real now after nearly 40 years of development. "VASIMR is intended to bridge the gap between high-thrust, low-specific impulse propulsion systems and low-thrust, high-specific impulse systems." or in other words function as a extremely versatile rocket for cargo transport and deep space missions. The Ad Astra Rocket company is developing this rocket technology.
