Repulsor Engines
From Halopedia, the Halo Wiki
Covenant starships use Repulsor Engines for propulsion in space. Little is known about its mechanisms, other than that they produce quantum fluctuations that can affect personnel within range of them, and that leave a wake that can affect starships.[1] It's possible that Repulsor Engines could be a form of "reactionless drive" that makes use of negative matter. Negative matter would have negative mass and would have a "repulsive" effect with the normal matter if placed behind the ship.
[edit] Trivia
- The name suggests a similarity to the Star Wars repulsorlifts.
