Big stuff indead. Looks like the existence of the elusive "graviton" has been confirmed.

It's one more example of extraterrestrial technology slowly leaked into our scientific world, just as lasers, microchips and superconducting solids have been leaked over the decades. This is the gravity-amplifying technology that drives extraterrestrial spaceships, or "UFO's" as we've been calling them over the years. This is the technology that will make space travel easy and affordable in the future.

Whoo-Yah. I normally don't say things like this in a post, but read my novel. Sure it's only sci-fi, but the protagonist produces gravitational fields almost exactly as described here. It is the basis of the whole book.
Just one more cognitive leap to make: They aren't measuring gravity fields, they are measuring time fields.
flame suit on...

"This experiment is the gravitational analogue of Faraday's electromagnetic induction experiment in 1831. This I understand.
By allowing force-carrying gravitational particles, known as the gravitons, to become heavier, they found that the unexpectedly large gravitomagnetic force could be modeled
This I don't. Could someone explain. I get the part about photons gaining mass....but I'm stuck on gravitons. I thought they were theoretical.

a ring of superconducting material rotating up to 6 500 times a minute The magnets mounted on a bicycle wheel in my laboratory were headed toward this. Just a matter of rotating a hundred times faster and dropping the temperature four hundred degrees, and a few other minor details. There is a time for Michael Faraday, and this could be be that time.

big. Very big. This should have happened in America, but we're simply losing our edge. Perhaps we can petition Congress to cut loose of some of the money they have stashed in the basement and kindle some interest in science.

"the measured field is a surprising one hundred million trillion times larger than Einstein's General Relativity predicts"
that should have been measured by the astronomers long time ago. We have to wait for independent tests done with independently built equipment, and that will take time. I bet that this report is wrong.

"I donno, but this looks like it might be big. Very big." Past differences aside, this experiment holds promise. Confirmation is required. This is important.

A summary in luddite style:
-------------------------------
"Small acceleration sensors placed at different locations close to the spinning superconductor, which has to be accelerated for the effect to be noticeable, recorded an acceleration field outside the superconductor that appears to be produced by gravitomagnetism.
Depending on further confirmation, this effect could form the basis for a new technological domain
Although just 100 millionths of the acceleration due to the Earths gravitational field, the measured field is a surprising one hundred million trillion times larger than Einsteins General Relativity predicts. Initially, the researchers were reluctant to believe their own results.
In parallel to the experimental evaluation of their conjecture, Tajmar and de Matos also looked for a more refined theoretical model of the Gravitomagnetic London Moment
If confirmed, this would be a major breakthrough," says Tajmar"
-------------------------------
In other words they don't know and are just guessing
