NASA Scientists Have Reported That They’ve Successfully Tested An Engine Called The Electromagnetic

NASA scientists have reported that they’ve successfully tested an engine called the electromagnetic propulsion drive, or the EM Drive, in a vacuum that replicates space. The EM Drive experimental system could take humans to Mars in just 70 days without the need for rocket fuel, and it’s no exaggeration to say that this could change everything. But before we get too excited it’s important to note that these results haven’t been replicated or verified by peer review, so there’s a chance there’s been some kind of error. But so far, despite a thorough attempt to poke holes in the results, the engine seems to hold up. The engine is controversial because it seems to violate one of the fundamental concepts of physics - the conservation of momentum, which states that for something to be propelled forward, it needs some kind of propellant to be pushed out in the opposite direction. But the EM Drive doesn’t require any propellant in order to create thrust, it simply relies on electromagnetic waves. To put it simply, electricity converts into microwaves within the cavity that push against the inside of the device, causing the thruster to accelerate in the opposite direction.

So what does all this mean? If the results can be replicated and verified in space it would change the way we travel in space, and open up access not only to planets in our own Solar System, but in the systems beyond.

Alien Sighting 1982: The extra-terrestrial was seen several times with a 10-year-old boy Elliot, in the California area. Witnesses report that the E.T. was seen drinking alcohol from Elliotts refrigerator and mumbling “E.T. phone home” A local man by the name of Steven managed to capture a video of the extraterrestrial as it was flying past the moon late one evening. (above) In my opinion, this is one of the best Alien sightings to date caught on film.

Alien Sighting Flancy, France. A group of friends were hanging out when they had a close encounter with an alien being. Luckily they were able to capture the experience on camera. As they were standing around a small fire they noticed something moving in the trees behind them, one of the friends throws down a lit branch close to the area of movement and that’s when you see a small grey alien peeking out from behind a tree. The alien then disappears, never to be seen again.
