"Experimental Quantum Drive Spacecraft Goes Silent in Deep Space"

Contact has been lost with a spacecraft carrying an experimental quantum drive, which was intended to demonstrate a propellantless propulsion system's ability to alter the satellite's orbit. The test, involving the highly controversial quantum drive developed by IVO limited, failed to initiate before the satellite fell silent due to ongoing power-system issues. Despite skepticism from scientists, IVO claims its quantum drive could be significantly more efficient than existing ion drives, but the technology has yet to be proven in large-scale tests, let alone in space. Undeterred by the setback, IVO plans to conduct further orbital tests with the quantum drive, despite the unceremonious end to the initial demonstration.
