"There is potential for conspiracy gold in a 2018 patent filed by aerospace engineer Dr. Salvatore Cezar Pais, who works for the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division, a research organization within the Navy that specializes in electromagnetic drives and superconductors. The patent (US10144532B2) describes "a craft using an inertial mass reduction device comprises of an inner resonant cavity wall, an outer resonant cavity, and microwave emitters. The electrically charged outer resonant cavity wall and the electrically insulated inner resonant cavity wall form a resonant cavity. The microwave emitters create high-frequency electromagnetic waves throughout the resonant cavity causing the resonant cavity to vibrate in an accelerated mode and create a local polarized vacuum outside the outer resonant cavity wall."…"

So how do you keep from cooking the pilots…? ;-) |

Drone technology… pilot it from the ground? |

The low impedance of this sort of engine is ideal for space craft but not anything in a gravity well and atmosphere combined; Sure, a small drone *might* lift under such a drive, but the energy put out would scream across all the ECM spectrum like a combination 2000 watt speaker, neon sign and dumpster fire. Hardly why you'd want as a stealth device for most military purposes. Now, a fuelless manoeuvring thruster for satellites, to make them smaller and able to change orbit for recon purposes, would be very useful indeed. |

Perhaps. Could work for USOs too, I suppose, given various sightings of late. |

Sure is purty. Can it fly? |

Mad Mecha Guy – yep, sure sounds like the same non-functional gimmick called the EM-Drive… |

Obviously much of that is classified. That being said, many triangular shaped UFOs have been seen and photographed in the passed few decades. So … who knows ? |
