ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

L-drive

Okay kiddo, imagine you have a toy car that you want to control with a remote. The L-drive is kind of like that remote, but for big ships instead of toy cars! It helps the captain of a ship control how fast and which direction the ship should go.

The L-drive is a type of propulsion system that uses magnetic fields to help move the ship through the water. It works by creating a magnetic field that interacts with the Earth's magnetic field, essentially pushing the ship forward without using traditional propellers. This helps the ship move more quietly and efficiently through the water.

Think of it like this - when you push a toy car forward, it moves because you applied force with your hand. With the L-drive, the ship moves because of these magnetic fields that push it forward. It's a really cool technology that helps ships move more smoothly through the water!
