In Portal, using the portal gun to get to the moon is the obvious space travel usage, but I think people are overlooking how it’d let you trivially break the rocket equation.
Hell, you could build a >1g torchship using nothing but the ocean.

@[email protected] @[email protected] As long as you only use it sparingly, climate change induced ocean level increase isn’t an issue. Probably doesn’t help with the rest of climate change, and when we inevitably don’t use it sparingly we get fun new environmental crises, but hey.
@[email protected] @[email protected] unfortunately the Half Life universe has the oceans already having dropped by a significant amount, because someone else (The Combine) is already draining the oceans. So using the ocean as remass is not the best idea, as easy as it is.
But yeah: you could use it just enough to get to Jupiter or some other source.
