Description from the seller

Offset-signed in silver-printed copy

Offset signed in the print in silver and numbered in the bottom right, issued by DS in 2004
The Bing II is powered by air and is equipped with three 4D thrusters, developed based on the Toymodel of Space theory. The engine consists of two pairs of cylinders inserted in parallel into a metal block. Four pistons alternately make an upward and a lateral movement. From the difference in speed and mass relative to the flight direction of the Earth and the solar system, thrust develops, reinforced by centrifugal forces. Panamarenko is optimistic about the performance of the craft: “If my theory is correct, it means the bankruptcy of all oil sheiks, because I tap energy directly from the Big Bang.”
