Willie, I can't believe I'm saying this, but you are mistaken.
elx, if you need to ask, you gots lotsa learning ahead of you. That's OK, though, aren't you still like 17 or something?
no sir, i fully understand the concept - what i don't understand is if you're asking me to defy the laws of physics.
what did you mean by 'work on it'?
and how exactly is a star trek impulse engine NOT a type of inertial propulsion drive
The impulse engine is a work of fiction created by Gene Roddenberry. Intertial propulsion is a concept that has basis in scientific fact and was being discussed in peer-reviewed journals as early as the mid 1990's (and probably earlier than that). This from a confirmed Trekkie.

See above. It's just what a young, wide-eyed, idealistic physicist-in-training should be fascinated by. (and no, it doesn't 'defy the laws of physics'.)
