Did the Navy Try to Build Its Own UFO? – SpyTalk

Reporting at the time brought up the possibility of a clandestine race for exotic technologies among the U.S., China and Russia. Other conjecture held that U.S. sources were allowing selective leaks of information about technology that did not exist, like, say, a super-aircraft powered by improbable forces, in a strategic deception operation to unnerve America s major adversaries.  As of 2020, the Federation of American Scientists annual list of secret patents had grown to almost 6,000.

Yet the design for this particular craft was anything but secret. Officials were willing to discuss it, as was its inventor. In his 2018 patent application, Pais described his vehicle in some detail, complete with diagrams. It includes an inner resonant cavity wall, an outer resonant cavity, and microwave emitters, he wrote. The craft would contain an inert gas such as xenon, a vacuum would be created outside the vehicle, and the microwaves would produce vibrations in the vacuum. Crew quarters would be encased in a Faraday cage to protect them from microwave radiation.

The result, said the inventor, would be a hybrid craft that would move with great ease through the air/space/water mediums, by being enclosed in a vacuum plasma bubble/sheath.

Pais did acknowledge at one point that his invention was extremely hypothetical, nothing less than changing known physics.  

If we can engineer the structure of the local quantum vacuum state, he wrote in his patent application, we can engineer the fabric of our reality at the most fundamental level (thus affecting a physical system’s inertial and gravitational properties). This realization would greatly advance the fields of aerospace propulsion and power generation.

That description was head-scratching for many physicists.

The physics seems (to my very limited understanding) moonshine, but I suppose it’s more likely than being visited by aliens. Isn’t it?
