That does sound fascinating. I’m only vaguely aware of some of those concepts. Internet search results have been somewhat conflicting. Do you mind sharing links to your preferred site for explanations of these things?
Alas, I learned of such things over 20 years ago… scattershot across too many sources to have retained any… largely forums that likely no longer exist, or sites that the corporate search engines no longer list (I say cynically). I cant even think of any books to point to. Best of luck.
One other tidbit that sprung to mind, the wing tips of various once-secret black stealth fighter planes had basically the same tech [electromagnetic inertial dampening] along their wing tips, to increase the rate at which they could turn. Oh, and then there’s the TR-3B that’s been defacto desecreted for over a decade now, at least to those interested enough to look and not reflexively disbelieve because it’s outside the world view they stubbornly incuriously cling to. Just for a couple examples of this stuff since Nikola Tesla’s time, in “real world” for those disinclined to entertain the idea.
Sorry, I could have just said, “no, sorry, I don’t”. But… further to this ramble, a couple of interesting quotes (especially interesting considering who said them, and who they work(ed) for), adding some context, first perhaps dashing hope in the faithless defeatist minds, then re-availing hope of a kind:
“We already have the means to travel among the stars, but these technologies are locked up in black projects and it would take an act of God to ever get them out to benefit humanity… anything you can imagine we already know how to do.” — Ben Rich, former Head of the Lockheed Skunk Works
“It is easier for us to pay a private contractor to re-invent something so it will come out at a lower classification level, than to try to declassify it.” – Bennett Hart, then Deputy Director of the National Reconnaissance Organization
(I should really look up and add the dates for those two quotes, since I throw them around so much. I think the former from the 1990s, and the latter from the early '00s).
