These concepts offer high acceleration (delta-v) and steady specific impulse (Isp), respectively, and using them together in the form of bimodal propulsion combines the benefits of both.

Tech expert Kurt “CyberGuy" Knutsson says 329,000 mph fusion rocket promises to be fast, disruptive and enable deep-space missions.

HOUSTON—The Ad Astra Rocket Co. has completed a 30-month NASA contract to continue advancing its Variable Specific Impulse Magnetoplasma Rocket (VASIMR) concept with the potential to reach Mars ...

The Pulsed Plasma Rocket could significantly shorten a round-trip to Mars, reduce risks to astronauts' health, and be ready to launch in 20 years.

- Describe the feature: I haven't found a direct way to do this, but am trying to set certain amino acids to only be searchable with variable mods. For instance looking at methylation on say 3 lysines ...

A specific impulse of 5,000 means a much lower fuel payload will be required to operate the rocket over longer distances in space.
