Are Electric Plasma Jet Engines Actually Possible?

Aircrafts today burn up a lot of fossil fuels, and switching to alternatives hasn't always been feasible. The world is definitely eager to move on to better options, and some time ago, we talked about China's solution to that on our channel. It was the electric plasma jet engine!

A plasma propulsion engine is a type of electric propulsion that generates thrust from a quasi-neutral plasma. This is different from other ion thruster engines, which generate thrust through extracting an ion current from the plasma source, which is then accelerated to high velocities using grids or anodes. There are four types of plasma engines; Helicon plasma thrusters, Magneto-plasma-dynamic thrusters, Pulsed inductive thrusters, and Electrodeless plasma thrusters.
