People have been using ordinary magnetrons (like the one in your microwave) and pointing them into closed chambers and generating thrust...
Many said the thrust must be caused by some kind of atmospheric disturbance cause by all those microwaves bouncing around in that closed chamber so NASA tried the engine in a vacuum and it worked per usual...
No one knows where the thrust is coming from...
It is estimated these engines could accelerate ships upwards of 10% lightspeed with only an off the shelf nuclear reactor generating electricity to power it...
