Rockets belong in a Museum

My father said, "We need something better than rockets." Rockets are dangerous. They are expensive to run both in fuel and money. Our most sophisticated rocket of the present, the Space Shuttle, can only reach low Earth orbit. I have spent some years experimenting with magnetic, electric, and inertial devices. I may succeed or I may not. If I do not succeed I ask you, Dear Reader, to continue this search for "SOMETHING BETTER". - Tesla Technology Volunteer 47 on February 25, 2001
