No one mentioned dry ice and water salutes? Maybe it can be dry ice that is packed around the dormant energy lobe of a slain infant prigoptera which will provide the near infinite power needed for deep space travel.
I like it!!!

Now we're thinking like Hollywood!
Congratulations, Google returned 0 results for "prigoptera" however there is apperantly such a a thing as a "Trichoptera" also known as the Caddisfly.

Slowly, slowly run oh horses of the night!
Perfection does not exist, but that does not mean you cannot work constantly to attain it.
The really important kind of freedom involves attention, and awareness, and discipline, and effort, and being able truly to care about other people and to sacrifice for them, over and over, in myriad petty little unsexy ways, every day. . . . The only thing that's capital-T True is that you get to decide how you're going to try to see it. You get to consciously decide what has meaning and what doesn't. . . . The trick is keeping the truth up-front in daily consciousness. -David Foster Wallace

I would look into the acetylene/air (NOT OXYGEN!!!!!) cannons.
The same principle should work with most flammable gases. I think they use propane in those "bird scaring gas cannons" they use around some landfills.
B!

or here ya go: they ran into the music store across the street, turned a couple of marshall stacks toward the offending building and plugged a smartphone into the input. visit one of limitless moronic pages on you tube where some kid blows up some tatp and there you have it. a loud bang with no chemicals or unbelievable or unobtainable technology.

Rogeryermaw, I like the way you think! I'd personally go with a Mesaboogie though.
Or Cerwin Vega for that concrete shaking bass thump?
