Thanks for the link, Skipjack.

Do you happen to know what became of their plasma-based transformer idea? I haven't seen anything about it, but I found the idea pretty interesting.

You might be interested in this old thread.

There is precedent, though. Gene's are naturally occurring, but patents have been granted on them.

If memory serves, EW later removed the dielectric since it had no appreciable effect and proceeded with the vacuum test with a design more similar to Shawyer's. Per the emdrive wiki and comments on NSF, NASA only produced results when using an HDPE extruded dielectric. http://emdrive.wiki/Experimen...

I also donated.

I wonder if it makes sense to lock this thread to prevent the questions and Dr. Park's answers from getting lost in the discussion to follow. And maybe make it sticky, too.

I like "Beware of The Leopard" myself.

What about natural Mach Effect phenomena? I've never been able to think of a natural phenomenon that would generate more than insignificant effects. You really need fantastically high internal energy and UHF to get a pronounced effect. I suppose if you had entire crystal planets being swung through...

Sure. But is the goal to create the largest reactor, or to demonstrate a viable reactor?

Not again!

Genius.
