CONSIDER THE SCIENCE BEHIND THIS.

If you have taken physics or you are science-oriented, you'll realize that this is very likely a sham in that Elon won't be able to produce a car that can achieve continuous flight for hours. I'm not 100% certain, but if you think about the physics, what is being suggested is impossible.

Think about the enormous amount of energy required to keep this car afloat if it's based on propellant. Consider how Harrier Jump jets spend so much fuel to do something similar for a few seconds.

The only way to accomplish this practically would be to rely on a technology that counteracts gravitational forces without expending energy. The aliens that have been spotted sporadically likely use such a technology. But we are nowhere near that level of technology yet. [Edit - deleted: Our scientists still don't know where gravity comes from.]

*Aliens. Btw, declassified evidence from the US government came out in the last 10 years. The traditional belief that believing in aliens is wacko has reversed. Ironically, if you don't believe in them now, it means you're unscientific. Look at the evidence before you tell me I'm crazy.

There is no way to be certain, but it's very likely that Air Force pilots have been seeing alien aircraft for the past few decades but it was kept secret by the military. It's pretty cool. There are videos online. I think it's insane that there isn't more public attention on this. I suspect that a lot of people dismiss it, believing it's wackos like flat Earthers trying to get attention. It's not.

Harrier jump jet is fundamentally different

They didn't say they were the same. They said consider how much fuel the Harrier expends, which is true.

From what I saw in an article about this, the car uses 10,000 psi of compressed air to operate the thrusters.

And, it is 100% legit even if it isn't practical for anything at the moment.

Not sure I would want to ride around on a 10,000 psi compressed air bomb that might potato-cannon my insides into next month in a rupture event.

I'm not disagreeing.
