๐Ÿงฒโœˆ๏ธ Why Burn Fuel When You Can Just Dangle a Giant Magnet in Front of the Plane? ๐Ÿ˜‚

Why waste fuel when you could simply hang a giant magnet in front of an airplane and let it pull the whole aircraft forward?

Brilliant, right?

Wellโ€ฆ only if you completely ignore how magnets work. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’€

A magnet attached to the plane cannot provide a net forward pull by attracting something that is also attached to the plane. The forces are part of the same system, so thereโ€™s no magical free propulsion.

It sounds clever in a cartoon.

In real life, you’d mostly have an airplane carrying an unnecessarily enormous magnet while everyone on board wondered who approved the engineering plan. ๐Ÿงฒโœˆ๏ธ๐Ÿ˜‚

Fuel: still required.
Giant magnet: completely unnecessary.
Internet engineering: undefeated. ๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ˜‚
