Actually, if your LRS was an atmospheric craft, and it schwaaaaaaad, it
wouldn't go anywere. To be realistic, an ion engine produces as much thrust
in weight as a piece of paper, while a rocket uses thrust equal to the
weight of a couple warehouses full of paper. Ion engines are next to
useless on planets. (I did a science report on them for school)
