[QUOTE="Junior Bonner, post: 2782211, member: 33416"] I appreciate it, Rod Snell and Dave70968. Truly, for many years I have wondered about this. Honestly, if ya'll had not explained it in this way, I would not have seen the thrust in this light. So, this leads to another question I have pondered: would not the moon be a good place to launch from? I mean, with the weak gravity, escape velocity could be increased significantly. This trip to Mars that will take, what, around a year? Well, if launched from the moon, might it not take a matter of days? [/QUOTE]
