Funny you should say THAT ("as some kind of propulsion for spacecraft")!
The Home Page Picture on my Web Site (Exotic Transportation):
http://home.iprimus.com.au/vortexau
features a kind of submarine surfacing beside the Icepack.
THIS is from my story (conceived for a screenplay) which features a
Twin-Singularity powered weasons-system termed a 'Huntercraft'!
This craft exists to go into battle with H(ostile) F(lying) O(bjects)
and in THIS story, due to battle-damage, is thrust into an alternate
continium where the Earth is in the grip of a Mini Ice Age.
To return to the 'Twin-Singularity' power unit; I conceived of this to
be a pair of Mini Black Holes orbiting about their common COG.
--- Anyway, you'll just have to wait for the movie!!
THAT'S on hold while I write a Screenplay about "a Computer Game,
a almost re-built Alien Disk, and the Bermuda Triangle"!
Has ANYONE even thought out what Cloning (as by that Doctor in Italy)
may actually lead to?
Concider- A married couple have a 'cloned' version of the wife as a
daughter! The child is a younger version of the mother, with none of
the father's genetic material.
What may happen? As the girl-child ages she becomes a 'younger'
replica of the wife, who has grown older! Are you following me?
Or - conversely - a married couple have a 'cloned' version of the husband
as a son! The child is a younger version of the father, with none of the mother's
genetic material.
As the boy-child ages he becomes a 'younger' replica of the husband,
who has grown older! The wife looks at her 'aged' husband - then at
the version of him that is youthful!!!!!
Going by THAT Mac and Linux comparison then...
I would guess that THEY would say to me....
Amiga? Why do you need a GUI that does multiple
Shells (Command Line Prompts, with history),
Multitasking, can look like you want it, can
switch apps from 640 to 1600 screens without
re-booting, can do a Disk-scan without stopping
you from doing your work, can navigate through
the directory levels faster than a CPU 10x
faster.........
Oh! I forgot, I'm accessing the Internet with a DEAD COMPUTER!!

Mmmm! Interesting Science Section.
Mmmm! Interesting Adds! Now, where have I seen
those I.Glasses before? Ah! That's right!

Hey - that's MUCH quicker than my Amiga OS3.1 at
20 Sec (with no CD in Drive), and most certainly,
much more than the 40 Sec of OS3.5!
But, of course, 3.5 is a Patched Double-Boot! And
the hardware is pure 1987 (with 1991/2 CPU)!
Roll-on A1 with G4 or G5!
