Hey there. I'm Jules. I'm an autistic twenty-something year old trans queer maths student. I like getting asks, so don't be shy (unless you want to). I post fandom stuff. Consider yourself warned. My pronouns are she/her/her/herself.

Egyptian Aisha Mustafa, 19, has dazzled the physics world with a new invention that could launch spacecraft off the Earth’s surface and soaring through space without any fuel. Space is filled with a billowing sea of quantum particles that jump in and out of existence, and Aisha Mustafa proposes using thin silicon panels, spaced closely together, to trap these particles and then move against them, creating a propelling force. This innovation would make space exploration lighter, safer and cheaper than the traditional “blast off” method. Mustafa still has some design work to do, but unfortunately her research is currently limited by lack of state funding for space science departments at the university level, though her school’s science club did help fund her application for a patent.
What a woman.
Wait, wait. This is, like, the coolest thing ever.
Badass.

Right, so. Looks interesting. Show us where we can donate. Indiegogo or kickstarter if it can be done for a few million,...
Did this young lady just invent warp drive? I think she did.
her school’s science club omygod she is amazing
