"I don't think it would kill you because it didn't kill me when I touched it"
Science.
Not sure this is the definition of applied science, but it makes for good entertainment! XD
That's pretty much how science has worked since the beginning of humanity.

Trystan ...the 'that's what she said' setup is just tooo easy.
"I haven't checked the regulations, so I don't know how many rules I'm breaking"
you sir, have gained a sub
this is slowly turning into a Saturday morning education show but with tazers
angry monster and casual small fires.
alterfalstaff very much yes
angry monster not for me. Friday night education. Yayayayayay. Imaa gonna start school soon so imma sub to this smartass
1. Get a big power source (2heavyforit)
2. Use more thrusters
3. It can get a bit of speed
4. Add more
5. Stand on it fly at 0.1m per second
At the cost of some meaningless Gigawatts...
I've been trying to build most of these projects from scratch until I found your Keystone Science page. It's so hard for me to find good information on this and you speak a language I understand. You remind me of the best instructor I've ever had when I was still a student. I trust the information I gathered from him more than I do any other today. You really are a life saver.
Thank you so much for all the HELP!

Did you try this
This is where @codyslab codydon should be keen to do a collab and it would be epic
tek413 Just curious, do you pronounce it like ca-lad or c-oh-lab? With a hard or soft o?
It's not one word it's cody's lab
it's Cody slab
"law breaking is probably bad, so don't do it" lol
PoppaBloodVessel only if ya care
"Probably bad"
Nice
Mmmkay??
It's good to live on what you think is right
It's been 40+ years since I had Physics & Chem - this kinda brought back memories, but blew my mind!!
I learned something new. Thanks!
I'm really impressed! I never thought this would actually produce such an extreme thrust :o
This is the first video of his that I've seen, but I like that he explains almost everything he says instead of what a lot of people do with just assuming you know what they're talking about
Now that I've watched for a third time... Great video. I honestly can't wait for the next video. I hope I can get my videos to this level!
You deserve way more subs
I'm just waiting for the day when you show us how to make a warp drive. I learn more from this channel than any other on RUclips.
You're very good at explaining things!
Thanks for the great videos man, heard about you a while ago from another youtuber and can't get enough of your videos informative, descriptive, educational and awesome
+Sir Penguin thank you :)
Awesome Stuff man! Amazing and enlightening.
Always wanted to make one thanks for showing.
Putting the lit candle next to the thruster was a good idea. It gave me a much better idea of the air flow being produced; which was quite a lot!
"How to make an ion thruster"
*device catches fire*
*burns self*
*high voltage, so this could kill You*
"actually, don't make an ion thruster without training"
Yes! new vid! bout time, lol... I smile when I see your vids come up in my feed :)
this channel is amazing! this is what I call quality content!
+TetraJeopardize awe thanks :)
Very well done. You caught me up in much of my younger education
That was impressive thrust.
Great video..
I used to see these all the time
. Called Lifters.. people made some absolutely massive versions . Several feet across worth complex shapes
Always seemed like the more simple ones like this we're stronger lift..
Many people used the flyback coils from old CRT monitors.. which were super common in the garbage at the time.. as LCDs were taking over .
Only the one shown on the website to the left though can carry its power supply onboard. it took a huge increase in power to weight ratio to do it! Please click on the purple channel icon to see 5 prototypes.
Your videos are so interesting and I learn so much thank you for this amazing content!
Great work Nate!
+Tommy Callaway thanks tommy!
This video was sick!
I'd love to be considered for the giveaway! You talk about things that are so boring in a classroom environment, and you make them fun and awesome. Thank you.
Excellent demonstration and explanation - really enjoyed it - If I can say, don't forget your units when you mention the charge on the electron but I guess it does not detract from the general enjoyment.
Very cool. I wasn aware that U can make it work so simply :) Best video on YT Ive seen in a while. Thanks!
+Mladen Lončarić thank you!
Great vid!
It would be great if you could make a high-voltage rectifier bridge made from household materials! Taht way we can all use our neon sign transformers to make this!!
If you do, you should look up mercury vapor rectifiers, these are what Tesla used in big elevators that had Edison motors in them. I am sure you can make something analogous to it with carbon from a pencil and maybe salt water or,
even hacking four small florescent lamps!
It would be great to see what you come up with!
Im from the deep south. You think you could exlaine this using biscuits, gravy and grits?
Awesome Video Man !!
I appreciated the crash course in atoms, needed that refresher!
Excellent video I built one of theses years ago great fun
Awesome science, who would have thought those tiny electrons/ions had so much energy! A chance to win a scope is also awesome :)
Enjoyed the fire! Will be waiting for the next video!
This right here is part of my project bro it's building the wave links and feeding them into the thruster so you control how fast you go
Thanks for the lesson on ion thrusters! I want to be in that giveaway, an oscilloscope would be very helpful.
"Exenon?" Xenon is actually pronounced "Zenon."
Have you built an ion thruster?
@@mp2jimmay no, no he has not.
@@ethanwild3301 no? He has built a thruster that moves ions.
GREAT VIDEO!
Great Video!
Super... you made it perfect
Thanks, great video. Wanted to make one for a while. Also, great explanation.
Thank you for the video.
+Garth Wormington thank you for watching! :)
The Nikola Tesla art behind you is awesome
+Jan Černý thanks!
thank you for my next science fair project
Very cool. Keep up the good work bro.
Sweet video!
Just awesome!!
That's just so cool!
+Jo Veteran thanks Jo ! :)
this is a great channel
I always wanted to try bulding a desktop fan out of these
That would probably end bad.... Maybe it's the whole "High voltage exposed wires" thing, or maybe it's the "I have oxygen ions flying around my desk" thing, but it still sounds bad. I would imagine having ions getting close to a computer probably wouldn't be preferable, either, because electricity. Judging by the fact you're commenting on youtube you likely have one of those little black boxes of circuitry and tech-wizard magic.
Trust me, you don't want ionized air around you
My brother~ ive cant even explain that to them, im so happy for you tell me if their is anything i can do to help assist anything realy. Im here available. I owe u just for explaing what i wished i could explain to people when im building my projects. Love ur channel i fully subscribed and hit notification's💯👍
nice, I just keep learning new cool stuff with this channel . Also it would be nice to have an oscilloscope for projects
Love your videos
I learned more from you in less time than an entire year in honors chemistry
Nice science..thanks bro
This is amazing :D
First, thanks for making these videos, I thoroughly enjoy them! II my question occurs around 5 minutes in your video during your explanation of how the ion thrust is created. Specifically, I'm assuming that electrons are also missing the positive pole when they go zooming across to the left . If so, Why do more electrons miss the negative pole than the positive Pole when zooming across to the right? If my assumption is wrong, then why aren't electrons missing the positive pole when they Zoom across to the left?
The candle blew off was the best part.. nice presentation bro
thank you so much
A giveaway? Hooray. Congrats on being sponsored!
+Jacob Rogers haha thanks
Nice Experiment
Good video.
Greetings from Britain! Lost me a bit at the shell stuff, but I'm taking physics A-level next year so I should understand it better then
Awesome!
If nothing catches on fire, then no thumbs up.....
Love it!
It's quite cool
"Law breaking is probably bad, so probably don't do it" Cracks me up
Where I live, everything is illegal.
Forget about a screwdriver in your pocket when you go out and you could have problems if it is found in a search.
The mentality of people in the UK is really bad.
I was suggesting making a model rocket the other day and my freind imediately started thinking up reasons why it probably isn't legal.
He just couldn't imagine my being allowed to make a rocket.
The sad thing is, he is probably right about it being illegal.
Hey this is the first vid of yours I watched and with in the first 1 min 30 I liked and subbed
Thats dope af
Greatings from Germany
Nice video :)
Hope you have a nice day.
A POSITIVE CHARGE ON AN OXIGEN ATOM? HERESY!
- a fellow amateour chemist
Dude this is genious
Dude, this is physics.
A giveaway sounds cool.
you are so awesome!!!!
Very nice.
Thank you.
You rock.
Something about coils in the future..?
Good morning from Chile
you have a great channel
I am an electronics student and really like your job 👍👍
+Aref Asgari thanks :)
I figured it out I'm going to be Rich thank you for solving the puzzle
eric rivera how rich and which richness is determined by your Richards.
Modren Dimetrodon You should update your profile picture, to match the current idea of what dimetrodon looks like, also, you're banner is freaking amazing.
this is really cool didn't know there were model ion thrusters!
I helped the channel.
I love you measure in cm way more workable!!!
Oh finally i wanted to do this since ever
+Darren DIY yay :D
Thanks for doing this video because i saw this on kreosan but it is not well explained so 👍👍
+Darren DIY no problem, and yeah I hear a lot about kreosan, but I haven't looked him up yet, perhaps I should
Keystone Science trust me check em out theyre ukranian crazy electricians
damn i never knew an ion thruster was so damn easy!!! Good video!
thats dope af
I'm new to your channel, but this was pretty cool. I imagine if you wanted to increase the thrust you'd need more voltage, large gap, more materials, and then it wouldn't fly? If that's the case.. How small can you make these? I'm thinking microdrones powered by a Tesla?
I have a question that doesn't have to do with this video but a vid awhile back on making a high voltage power supply. I'm finally starting to work on it and I'm getting into electronics. Should I only use solder on circuit boards or should I also use it when joining wires? Secondly, is there any other way to prevent the flyback transformer from overheating without using oil?
I had no idea this was so simple to implement! Or... at least you make it seem that way! lol
Really nice. :)
+MC's Creations thanks :D
Phenomenal
I like the jacket. I would suggest electron based ion propulsion than xenon based propulsion.
Looking forward to the give away!
That pocket ociliscope would be really handy to have
XD I love your taste in object hanging devises
+sigmation haha thanks :)
Here is as very similar device but with lots of improvements, that can lift its power supply into the air!... You can click on the purple icon to the left to see it fly and how to build it.
If the flyback coil output is AC, how did you convert to DC for the lifter? Does your transformer include a rectifier circuit? Does it make a difference if we run the transformer with an external primary as opposed to using the internal primary?
