In this video series I'm spending a few days with a new researcher, each episode showing you what that life is like, learning a bit about them, and learning about the topic of their thesis.

This time I'm at the Department of Aeronautics at Imperial College London , talking to Jesus who is experimenting with an unusual rocket fuel, water.

The subject of Hazos PhD is a specific kind of ion thrusters that uses something called the Hall effect.

The Hall effect is the movement of charged particles when they are in a perpendicular magnetic field.

Hazos studied in Spain in Madrid for his aerospace engineering background and then moved to the Netherlands to Tudelf and then the Netherlands .

Students at Imperial College in London have a flight simulator that simulates the physics of motion of an aircraft.

They can model their own aircraft and see how it handles in a six axis flight simulator.

In the future, what we want to do is to put this stuff but into space.
