I absolutely love how these things always look like janky scrapyard inventions, despite (usually) costing a fortune to build.
Read the article, but didn’t see anything about how much thrust is expected. Guessing this is going to be a better ion engine of low thrust/high specific impulse. Which is useful, but mostly for robots.
