1. A spacecraft comprising:a propulsion device comprising:neutron beam regulator system comprising:a magnetic coil configured around a neutron beam that is produced by a neutron beam source and emitted by a neutron beam generator;wherein the neutron beam is emitted from the spacecraft to propel the spacecraft in space. 2. The spacecraft of claim 1, wherein the neutron beam source is a generated neutron beam source and wherein the propulsion device comprises a power control system comprising:a neutron beam source power supply output. 3. The spacecraft of claim 1, wherein the magnetic coil is a power generated magnetic coil that produces a magnetic field through a supply of electrical power to the magnetic coils. 4. The spacecraft of claim 3, wherein the neutron beam regulator system comprises:a magnetic coil power supply output;a neutron beam source power supply output;magnetic coil power sensor;a power safety feature configured to prevent power supply to said neutron beam source power supply output when said magnetic coil power supply sensor detects that a power level below a threshold power level is being drawn from the magnetic coil power supply output;whereby the neutron beam generator will not receive power from the power control system unless the magnetic coil is drawing said threshold power level and producing a confining magnetic field. 5. The spacecraft of claim 1, wherein the neutron beam source is a self-contained neutron beam source. 6. The spacecraft of claim 5, wherein the magnetic coil is a power generated magnetic coil that produces a magnetic field through a supply of electrical power to the magnetic coils. 7.
