TL;DR Summary

A YouTuber named Jay Bowles has successfully experimented with a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) drive, a propulsion technology that uses magnets and electrodes to silently propel a craft through water. By using a pair of electrodes and a single magnet, he achieved measurable results with just a standard bench supply. Through various experiments, he found that the MHD drive is forgiving in terms of design specifics, with more power and bigger magnets resulting in higher velocity. However, the brass electrodes showed signs of wear and tear, raising questions about the drive's long-term durability.
