The invention relates to a propulsion system comprising a motor comprising a pair of parallel longitudinal tubes (100), each longitudinal tube comprising a first end (10) and a second end (11) and delimiting an internal volume (12) filled with a fluid. Each longitudinal tube (100) comprises: - a projectile (200), configured to move longitudinally in the internal volume, securely attached to a propeller (201), - a mechanism for launching the projectile in the internal volume (12) from the first end, the propeller (201) being designed to convert a translational movement of the projectile (200) into a rotational movement, - a device for slowing the rotation of the projectile (200) in the internal volume (12), this device being positioned at the second end, - a device for returning the projectile (200) toward the first end, - a device for dissipating heat, the propellers of the longitudinal tubes being contrarotating.
