Could we perhaps have a theory of what type of thrusters or such these are (aside from fusion if helium is used from the engine after being made from hydrogen based off the power plant's wiki page.) I know tha 8A thrusters can be roughly 10x the thrust of the first stage of the saturn V using the maximum mass of the thrusters and converting it using the highest gravity that the thrusters could get the ship off of (9.95G), my numbers may be off but I can try to re do it here or in the official forums if asked.  I am asking since I am interested and plan on doing a video series on how aspects of ED work using the actual science and math, who knows maybe in the long run, this could lead to a real life discovery for ship systems and designs that could rapidly advance technology.
