-New fundamental force
-Explains warp drive (??)
-Requires exquisite measurement methods and cancelling out all other interfering forces (which inevitably they won’t do well)
-Ex-big institute head scientist to lend credence
-No supporting scientific papers in a reputed journal
-Big claim of legitimacy based on a patent being granted
This is far sketchier than even Ranga Das’s superconductivity claims.
I don't see any discussion of FTL speed, so not clear what you're talking about.
> -Ex-big institute head scientist to lend credence
I believe Buhler is currently the lead research scientist at the Electrostatics and Surface Physics Laboratory at Kennedy. Do you have evidence otherwise?
> Big claim of legitimacy based on a patent being granted
A patent was granted, but that isn't the source of any particular claims of legitimacy I see.
> This is far sketchier than even Ranga Das’s superconductivity claims.
I disagree. While I do think the odds are high that this is the result of the non-obvious intetaction of knowm forces, I suspect the mystery behind this unexplained result will be more interesting once solved.
Does it cure cancer like sea algae grown in mountain stream water?
