The latest entrant to the space race is... Egypt!19-year-old student invents futuristic 'warp drive' for satellites | Mail Online: "A 19-year-old Egyptian university student called Aisha Mustafa has invented a futuristic propulsion system for spacecraft. The invention 'leapfrogs' Nasa research, and uses a hi-tech quantum effect to drive satellites through space, rather than ordinary rocket engines. Mustafa's invention generates energy using the Casimir-Polder force, an obscure quantum effect using two surfaces and objects in a vacuum."
