Note: All ‘imaginary’ human fat will be sourced from Liposuction facilities.

Of course, in heavy traffic you are burning up the bio-fuel/fat getting nowhere.
Fuel Consumption (F) can plummet, even for the Mini, from 3.4 kg/ 100 km to 6.8 kg/100 km to 8.8 kg/100km. You may as well get out of the car and walk!!

DART is a test
of NASA’s planetary defence plans.

AND IF YOU GOOGLE ……..
DOUBLE ASTEROID REDIRECTION TEST
Guess what?

The DART(Double Asteroid Redirection Test) mission was launched on Nov. 23, 2021, atop a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from the Vandenberg Space Force Base in California.
It is the size of a small vending machine and it has been travelling through space for 10 months.
