Magnetohydrodynamics-Based "Propulsion" Based on "Planetary-Satellite-X-Line" Interactions: Potential Analogy to X-Waves and Magnetic Levitation Trains

These are "false color" images that show the types of geometries that are apparent in spacetime, during an "experimental" superluminal displacement, using magnetohydrodynamic, meaning magnetic reconnection-based, "approaches." The "lines" are X-lines, which are like the multipolar boundary "zones" around the site of magnetic reconnection, which appears as a kind of tunnel in the first few pictures. The X-lines shown here represent the X-lines that form the rings of Saturn (an X-line is a complex saddling geometry, such as exists in the Earth's magnetotail, during magnetic reconnection events that routinely occur, naturally, there). A way of conceptualizing this is that one sees the moon from three or four or whatever major frames of reference, and the "jump" to the next major frame of reference is preceded by a "streaking" or speckling of "lensed" or "mirror-point-like" images of the moon, which itself can be viewed as a highly complex, "rolling" magnetic reconnection or saddling point. In any case, that's that. It's as if the device or "would-be-device" or whatever the hell it is overlaps with the moon/X-line system at each of three or four separate points or frames of reference, and then the magnetic reconnection events proceed as a cascade of events that produce a perceptual progression from the first through the last reference point or observational point. The analogy some people have used is to say that one is threading a needle and making three or four or whatever number of stitches, etc. The whole device, along with the set of displacements that produce the apparent motion along each of the four or whatever observational reference points or time points, can be viewed as being a multi-lobed X-wave, in one sense. It's sort of interesting and is similar to the kind of "magnetic tunneling" motion that allows for magnetic levitation trains to move, etc., even though the mechanism of "movement" is problematic. Additionally, research on the mechanisms of some of the hypersonic airplanes has been grounded in magnetohydrodynamics.
