they’ve created a drive powered by a “New Force” outside our current known laws of physics, giving the propellant-less drive enough boost to overcome gravity.
Right......
It's true. Here's a copy of their research paper:
Sure, here's what your research paper could look like:
Title: Unveiling a Novel Force: Propelling Beyond Gravitational Constraints
Abstract: This paper investigates a newly hypothesized force that enables propellant-less drives to defy gravity. Examining experimental anomalies and theoretical speculations, it explores potential mechanisms and applications, signaling a transformative leap in space exploration and transportation technology.
But as an AI model, I don't know shit and come up with bullshit out of my synthetic ass.
Man, I wish that disclaimer had to be attached to anything generated by ai!
synthetic ass 🤤
New Force isnt as good bring back "Force Classic" 😤
Ikr? It already comes in four different flavours! (Five if you count the Star Wars Edition, but that was just a marketing gimmick.)
Obviously Buhler’s claims are pretty “woah, if true,” but the history of propellant-less drives is filled with seemingly positive results that are eventually dashed upon the rocks of scientific reality.
"Big if true"
Me too but only for a short time.

The secret is to throw yourself at the ground and miss.
I just want an Aluminum Falcon.
I assume I won't be able to afford the Millennium edition.
You'll get the Millennium Edition as a DLC
Gotta wait another 999 years for that release.
Na, missed their chance. They made those things a long time ago
I do wonder why we never ask why they are former NASA / Blue Origin / SpaceX whatever. Did they try to bring up some crazy idea and let go? Did they just lose it?
Im always hopeful for new breakthroughs but always sceptical
People leave companies for all sorts of reasons. There's politics at every job.
It'd sure be nice if some break through like this was realized. But when you have a company to greatly benefit from this "impossible discovery", hard to stay optimistic it isn't some grift.
The EM Drive Mk II
TimeCube or GTFO
After reading the article, and doing a little digging on this I can confidently say this article is utter garbage. You can look up the patent application on this, it's something to do with electrostatic forces which is a well known area of physics. Nothing magical about it.
For anyone curious, someone was kind enough to post the summary of the patent in this thread https://forum.nasaspaceflight.com/index.php?topic=60131.0
Did anyone claim it was magic?
The article author claimed it was some undiscovered force in physics, so kinda yeah. It's completely misrepresenting what it is.
But an undiscovered force is not magic either. However, I understand what you're saying now.
It's just a metaphor..
Oh.
Very interesting, and a very very terrible web page.
Disappearances come after the patents get filed.
Engineer found dead in probable suicide.
Why would anyone want to kill him if this were true? It would be a dream for NASA and everybody else working in space flight.
FWIW I'd bet almost anything this will be as useful as the EmDrive.
If someone already quietly had similar tech maneuvering their satellites, and wanted to remain the only actor with eyes in the sky that can't be shot down or eventually chased down due to lack of fuel.
