Their sales forcasts for the proposed "Sonic Cruiser" also defy gravity....

Scientists who investigated Dr Podkletnov's work, however, said the experiment was fundamentally flawed and that negating gravity was impossible. I didn't know Boeing was working on this. I've read about this before, and it is not a device that negates gravity. It is a device that sheilds gravity.

Everybody knows Dr. Podkletnov was brought to Area 51 in the early 70's to help in the reverse egineering of alien crafts. I mean duh! He has clearly stolen the idea for person gain which he will use to finance Hillary's run for the white house.

Could someone explain what physics is supposed to be behind it?
To: vannrox
I believe it! No sooner did I read this article, than my underpants began to hover over my coworkers cubicle, proscribing crop circles in the paperwork on her desk!

This is really research-lite, if you know what I mean!
To: vannrox
I've seen reports of similar research involving extremely high electro-magnetic fields. Objects, even living creatures (frogs, insects, and whatnot), placed in the middle of these fields "float", apparently without ill-effect. Of course, the equipment used to cause these objects to float in space are very definitely earthbound. The question would be how to generate a field capable of causing a vehicle to float. It may end up like perpetual motion research.

Off topic, I think I saw Pons and Fleischman doing a barbecue cooking show on NPR.

Uh, sorry. Phantom Works is located in St. Louis, not Seattle.

Skeptical? Maybe. I would like to see, once and for all, the results of this experiment validated or not.
Remember all of those in our past who have said "That is impossible!" (The earth is flat, everything circles the earth, man can't fly... I could go on and on)
Here is another Physics brainteaser.
If light consists of particles (photons) AND they travel at the speed of light, wouldn't that mean that the photon's mass is infinite?

This type of "levitation" in associaition with superconductivity has been around for quite awhile. Though it's electromagnetic, not gravitational.

Art Bell, please pick up a white courtesy phone.

So far, they've overcome gravitas but at least it's a start.

Even if this turns out to only be similar to the electro-magnetive levitating that people have been doing on frogs, it is still important because that could then be used on the moon to create an artificial gravity so people's bones don't get brittle. So I really don't think this will become propulsion for rockets but could eventually be worth millions anyway.

If Boeing is sucessful, the primary beneficiary will be Red China !
