Military documents claim the device could 'make the Hydrogen bomb seem more like a firecracker.'
, the US Navy performed experiments on far-fetched technologies including a "spacetime modification weapon" which, researchers claimed internally, could revolutionize power and propulsion systems.
The mysterious technologies were meant to take advantage of the "Pais effect," patented by American aerospace engineer Salvatore Cezar Pais and which could end up pushing the boundaries of conventional science — if, that is, they are ever proven to actually work. Pais says the tech could enable a propulsion system that defies gravity, as well as even more eccentric claims. In aPais even laid out plans for a "hybrid aerospace-underwater craft" that he claimed was able to "engineer the fabric of our reality at the most fundamental level."
Needless to say, these dubious theoretical devices have yet to be demonstrated in any meaningful way — but, at the same time, the fact that the US military is funding their development does lend them a veneer of credibility.According to the newly obtained documents, the Navy took Pais's ideas seriously enough to pour hundreds of thousands of dollars into their development.
The experiments sound inconclusive, though. The elusive Pais effect was neither observed nor disproven, according toIn other words, it remains unclear whether the Navy still believes Pais is onto something — or whether his work is a neglected line item in the Defense Department's vast budget.
