Hyper engine

Okay kiddo, so you know how cars have engines that make them go vroom vroom? Well, a hyper engine is like a super duper version of that engine. It's so powerful that it can make things go really really fast, like a spaceship going to space.

A hyper engine works by using a lot of energy to create a strong force that pushes things forward. Imagine blowing up a really big balloon and then letting it go. It would shoot across the room, right? That's basically what a hyper engine does, but on a much bigger scale.

Scientists and engineers are still working on making real hyper engines, but they could be really helpful in making fast planes, rockets, and even cars! So, we might see some vroom vrooming into space one day.
