The US Patent and Trademark Office has granted US Patent #6,960,975, titled “Space vehicle propelled by the pressure of inflationary vacuum state” to Boris Volfson of Huntington, IN.
The abstract reads thus [emphasis added]:
A space vehicle propelled by the pressure of inflationary vacuum state is provided comprising a hollow superconductive shield, an inner shield, a power source, a support structure, upper and lower means for generating an electromagnetic field, and a flux modulation controller. A cooled hollow superconductive shield is energized by an electromagnetic field resulting in the quantized vortices of lattice ions projecting a gravitomagnetic field that forms a spacetime curvature anomaly outside the space vehicle. The spacetime curvature imbalance, the spacetime curvature being the same as gravity, provides for the space vehicle’s propulsion. The space vehicle, surrounded by the spacetime anomaly, may move at a speed approaching the light-speed characteristic for the modified locale.
Mr. Volfson has several other interesting inventions listed on his web site. Hoax? Almost has to be…
