Ah, now I see how these things work -- Zero Point Modules™
It breaks the law of Physics (conservation of motion).
If it works, our understanding of Physics is WRONG. Everything newer than Newton is suspect...
“Free Momentum” would indeed be a startling finding
The idea that there can be non-conserved momentum is would severely disturb Newton, and all Physicists forward.
I have this uncle who made a Chevy 350 get 200 mpg, then someone killed him.

Is that how the Fed produces Fedbucks?
I always find it funny too.. Violated laws they know but I am sure their billion of laws yet to be discovered.
The video I’m listening to in another tab had a soundtrack resembling those YT vids purporting to reveal all about some top secret (and often imaginary) project. He should rethink that.
Here’s Shawyer’s site:
and a paper of his:

Actual scientists don’t use words like “impossible”.
If it can, without expending reaction mass, that's what we want, whether we know how it works or not.
Even small curvature “short cuts” over millions of miles would save much energy.
Einstein said quantum physics doesn't work.
You can read about it here:
Einstein says quantum mechanics violates reality.

I heard a similar story from my grandpa — said the guy was threatened that if he sold it, built (or gave plans/instruction) another, they'd kill him and his family.
>>Love how scientists say its impossible because it violates laws.<<
We’ve got a whole crowd of “impossible” chanters here on FR. Why haven’t they appeared yet?
Impulse Engine......?????
How fast is the “push” coming out of this thing? The speed of light? The point is to have an array that constantly fires when the object they are pushing is beyond a gravity well. Over time even the constant gentle push would push even a large mass to relativistic speeds...maybe not the speed of light since mass and velocity seem to have a relationship where mass becomes infinite at light speed unless space itself can be curved at the same time. Ionic propulsion works and they produce enough thrust over time to allow probes to catch up to comets at the velocities that they travel.
If they really thought it was impossible they wouldn’t have tried it. Scientists are generally pretty straight up about there being things they’ve got a good handle on, things they don’t, and both sets are one discovery away from being rewritten.
They all laughrd at the Wright Brthers too.
Could it be applied to the Energy Industry? Or would the federal government move to consfiscate the engine for violating “laws” of physics and other obvious reasons?
> I always thought that when people/scientists said that aliens couldn’t get here because of the vast distances, I thought of the arrogance of the human race. “We haven’t discovered it, so it can’t be done.”
This is what I think of athiests and the Left who say there is no G-d because they haven’t seem. I think they lack the capacity to consider that there is a Creator despite the vast evidence that exists which more than suggests it.
Consensus has spoken! This thing cannot work! I don’t care if they build one and fly it to the stars, Consensus says it will not work, therefore it will not!
Bow to Consensus, lowly rube swine!
